All about perspective. If this is an acceptable offer for Patches now, what was Bostons offer to NYR for Nash? I know people are down on Pacioretty he's not worthless either.
Nash (50%) at last years TDL:
Ryan Spooner, Matt Beleskey (50%), Ryan Lindgren and round 1st 2018 (Bernard Docker)
Jokiharju = Bernard Docker
2nd 2019 = Lindgren
6th does not equal Spooner+Beleskey (50%) (Spooner easily worth a late 2nd rounder and Beleskey at 50% is barely a nuisance. Half of his remaining 1.9 can be buried in the AHL making his actual cap hit only 800K..
And even if the last part was equal in your mind, that's for 20 regular season games of Nash and 1 playoff. Trading for Pacioretty now gives you 82 games and a 1 playoff. So that has to be compensated for.
Not too mention Pacioretty is 29, Nash is 34 and the thing people seem to forget that even in his worst offensive season of his career, Pacioretty still managed more points in less games than Nash did last year......in virtually the same amount of games last year in NYR, Nash only had 1 more goal than Pacioretty did.......
I get teams not wanting to give high end quality pieces for Pacioretty simply because the leverage has tilted away from MTL a bit, but we better be getting at the very least quantity then.
