Gregor is not "not that much of a downgrade", or in other words he IS that much of a downgrade
Offense
Jarnkrok:
10 or more goals every year since 2015/2016 and a career high 20 last year
Career high 39 pts last year and averages about half a point per game
Averaged over an 82 game season, he scores 16 goals and 36 pts
Gregor
26 goals total in his career of 178 games, career high 10 last year
Career high 23 points 2 years ago, 17 last year maybe 0.3 ppg
Averaged over an 82 game season, he scores 12 goals and 23 pts
Other:
Jarnkrok
Can play C (did so mostly early in his career, not much recently)
Is still quite good in the dot
Is good defensively (not elite, but good, can be the responsible guy on a sheltered scoring line)
Is not particularly physical
Gregor
cannot play C
Is terrible defensively
Is physical
So essentially Gregor is exactly what you would expect from a 25 year old signing a PTO in September: he is a borderline NHLer. He comes with one improvement over Jarnkrok (Gregor is more physical). Otherwise he is significantly worse in every way. Jarnkrok is frankly a bargain. He is middle six forward who can complement skilled players and score when in that situation (but can't drive his own offense), and can play all three forward positions and be defensively responsible. He can be put anywhere in the line up and be useful. He does that for 2.1 million.
