Seems like a lot for a pending UFA, possibly a pure rental. Giving up a roster player with remaining contract term and/or control, does not seem feasible unless a contract extension is actually agreed to as part of any trade (rather than just merely the opportunity to discuss a contract).

Yeah obviously this wouldn’t happen if there’s no reasonable extension.

Cost may seem heavy but the fact is that Pageau would be taking one of Compher/Josts spot in the lineup anyway. The 2nd is a good price to pay to upgrade a player like that and I don’t think there would be many other teams willing to trade a player like Jost/Compher which should make this very enticing for the Sens too.

 

[SoulDynasty]

Pageau is an awesome player. I would definitely not trade Jost or Compher for him.

Ottawa will be looking for picks and prospects anyway. No point in risking our chemistry for someone who may or may not gel with the team, and giving up an extra pick on top of that.

I would offer a second round pick and third round pick (goes to another 2nd if resigned), years to be determined.

 

[Taytro]

If an extension is possible then Ottawa just give him the extension.

I can understand not wanting to do this for COL but I also think that OTT would be happy to get back young NHL players as opposed to more picks or prospects farther away.

Also, I think they easily get an offer better than a 2nd and a 3rd.

Ahh the classic hf " I want your valuable player but don't want to give anything valuable for him"

 

[Perratrooper]

No problem giving up Jost and a second, first is a bit steep for me though. Honestly would rather go with Tierny if he's cheaper.

 

[Bone Breaker]

if THAT is the price, I'd rather go after Hall.

 

[LeProspector]

I’d personally be fine with Jost

Jost and a 2nd would an ideal deal for Ottawa. Brings in a young centre to replace Pageau who hopefully can improve with a change of scenery.

It really is more of "this is a rental UFA deadline transaction, so, accordingly, what is the typical cost in terms of assets that we have historically seen?"

 

[John Eichel da GOAT]

Big nope here from COL. JGP is having a nice start, but im not falling for the 27 year old finally figured it out and is magically a 60 point player now.

2nd and 3rd...yeah I think someone outbids that pretty easily

 

[slimbob8]

Pageau is not returning Jost + a 2nd. No chance.

Why trade a 3c under contract/control for a 3c who's a free agent?

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Nah. Jost doesn't interest me.

Ottawa will be able to pry a first rounder from someone for Pageau.

He's not a 60 point forward now and he never was. Any GM that's trading for him is trading based on his body of work over the last 5 years. He's consistently been one of the best bottom 6 players in the league for a long time now.

If you dont want to offer the value that the OP offered that's fair. I dont think JGP will return as good as a roster player as Jost or Compher.

 

[The Abusement Park]

No you trade for him because you bring in a guy who immediately fills Josts role and gives us not only one of the best 3C's(and defensive forwards straight up), but also arguably the best 1-2-3 punch at C in the entire league. JPG is a beast who's good for 30-35 pts a year and elite shutdown abilities.

 

[PAZ]

If there was a player from Ottawa we should've targetted, it was Dzingel this offseason.

This offseason he was UFA and before that he was with Columbus.

Yikes.

This thread is a good eye opener on how few Eastern Coference games Avs fans apparantly watch.


Acquiring JGP would have nothing to do with his production this year.


Hes one of the most versatile forwards in the game, on top of being one of the beat defensive forwards in the league.


He would be a massive add to the Avs forward depth and if the cost was Jost+ you make that deal plain and simple.

 

[Hasbro]

Think Sakic could sucker Dorion again?

 

[AvsCOL]

Personally not a fan, but others will surely disagree. If we're going to lose Jost/Compher, it needs to be a legit 2nd line player, not another middle-six "tweener" that will only replace them.

If the price is right, then Pageau is a good player, but this seems like a marginal improvement at best, and then you have to re-sign him.

Whatever you think of the deal is fine... but placing Pageau's primary value on pts is kinda missing the point with the player.
