1st, it’s funny to compare Crosby to Laine
2nd, it’s funny that you gave less value for Crosby than I gave for Laine
Marino is a young, cost controlled #2D with upside of being a #1. It would be one for one and Penguins would say hell no. You’re funny if you think someone is gonna send a roster player that valuable for Laine.
Okay, first of all, I’m not saying laine is the better player. He’s simply equally valuable imo. Laine isn’t even near his prime yet whereas Crosby is going to decline within the next couple of seasons (probably unless he follows a wheeler like trajectory). That’s why, I say they have similar value. Also, all superstars in the league are comparable, whether that be mcdavid and Crosby or Crosby and laine. Doesn’t matter. It’s the only thing you can possibly compare a superstar to. It wasn’t a matter of demeaning either, just think he’s the closest thing to laine the pens have. Could have used Malkin too though, now that I think about it. Doesn’t matter though, you get the point.
Second of all, I didn’t really care about the overall value much. I know it was less but I had to chose players on the jets of comparable value individually. In the minute I took to write this comment, I didn’t think of anyone else really. And the value isn’t that much different anyway. Definitely a larger gap between rust and Roslovic and demelo and dumolin but nothing to cry over.
Lastly, laine is a top line superstar winger who will hit 50 goals (probably more than once) in his career. Your point is? If you aren’t prepared to give a significant part of your roster for him, why would the jets give you a significant part of their roster? And it wouldn’t be Marino for laine one for one, laine is definitely worth more lol
