in the lead-up to the 1909–10 season taylor was again courted by o'brien to join his team in renfrew. throughout november 1909 there were contradictory newspaper reports about with whom taylor would sign, with both ottawa and renfrew each claiming he had signed with them. by december 30 an agreement was finalized with renfrew. the salary was reported to be as high as $5,250 for the season, which would have made taylor the highest-paid athlete in canadian history. a comparison was made with baseball player ty cobb, who had signed around the same time for $6,500, though it was noted that baseball played 154 games in a season, while hockey only had 12; thus on a per-game basis taylor was the highest-paid athlete in the world.
