Quoting: Talking_Senators
I like Crouse but that's a crazy price to pay for someone with a career high 45 points.
Yeah this is an INSANE price
Crouse averaged 15 more points per 82 games than Joseph the last 2 seasons (which are Crouse's best 2 seasons). They are both good defensively but Joseph has elite PK metrics
Oh and Crouse makes 1.35 AAV more per season than Joseph
So to get that upgrade on Joseph, you'd pay :
2024 1st round pick (DET)
2025 2nd round pick (OTT)
Järventie, Roby : worth a late 1st at least
Thomson, Lassi : worth a 2nd
That is A LOT MORE than what the Sens got for Alex DeBrincat
Jarventie is a top-6 sniper prospect. 33 goals 62 pts pace in the AHL last season, had a pretty damn good WJC. He's still 20 years old as we speak
