Hmm, I’m not sure a Tampa winning the cup last year would have been shocking to most. Either way, you’re right. It’s very tough to win the Stanley Cup.

You can’t learn senile people new stuff. He will continue with these type of trades. To be honest, I don’t mind!

JGP is such a great addition to this team, he's been money. It's not quite the Butch Goring TDL deal 40 years later, yet. But man, he's scored some big goals thus far, and his presence has just elevated the Isles.

he has earned his money and worth the draft picks already.. Going to really enjoy watching him for the rest of his contract, already a fan fav.
and if we make it out of this round it will be a bottom 4 in both rounds (as will our remaining picks). Trying to remember but think they only reseed draft picks for playoff teams once they get to the conference finals. I havent looked it up so someone who knows may be able to comment.

Stay safe!
Pageau has a 12 inch dick... from the floor. The guy is money.
All I gotta say is...Dorion got ripped off by Senile Lou, what a steal of a trade.
Go get my Sens that 2022 3rd round pick!

Pageau is so damn clutch. What a damn hockey player this guy is. Does it all over the ice and affects the game in so many ways

Crazy stat here also is he is +13 these playoffs. At even strength, this is quite the advantage.

Knew he was good but didn't know he had that sneaky speed and acceleration.
One day I would like to see Pageau, Barzal, Beauvilier when down a goal late.
He's the perfect addition to this team. Would be a great 2C.
What a late pickup - best since Butch.

I don't know man, sometimes he makes a face like he stepped on it by accident earlier that day. I'm pretty sure it drags.
Also crazy is that he is the current playoff leader in +/-. It gets even crazier when you consider his linemates and usage. He has been one hell of a pickup and I'm thrilled we signed him longterm.

I've been trying to avoid pumping my own tires, but if you go back to the Pageau discussions pre and post trade, I stated that what he brought in terms of sneaky skill, speed, compete level, pretty much everything we've seen these past few weeks, was severely underappreciated by this board. Having watched a pretty large share of Sens games I was always high on him.
But even I am amazed at his performance since the playoffs began. Shouldn't be, he's been known to rise to the occasion pretty consistently and is a PERFECT fit for this team and system. But he is quickly showing he is going to be a fan favorite and justifiably so. Would be curious to know how many Pager jerseys are sold over the next few months. Lol
Also seems to be the type that brings a plus to team chemistry too. The reactions of his "brothers" to his ping pong final entrance was priceless, and I get the feeling he is already a big presence in the dressing room as well as on the ice.
To me, team confidence and team chemistry are 2 of the biggest factors (if not THE biggest) in a playoff run. And the boys clearly have both in spades. Hell of a fun ride to watch.

Man am I glad Lou insta-signed him. This playoff performance may have cost us some extra cash

JGP was born to be a Trotz Islander. Anyone who knew anything about this guy knew he’d be a great fit. $5M for a 3C? How about $5M for a clutch center you can throw out in any situation?
Sometimes both teams win trades, and this was one of them.
