Description
Don't take seriously, just playing off another ACGM. If this happened, there's almost certainly no Toews extension but Byram could take his spot and hopefully Bean could step into Byram's spot.

Don't think it is the right move to spend almost 4M to your 3rd pairing when your 3rd line is Meyers-Eller-LOC. I don't think Bean-Schenn would be a huge upgrade over JJ-Malinski till example, while it would carry over double the caphit. Would be willing to part ways with more assets for half retained Crosby also, he is still top10 centers in the league.

I know it's Sidney Crosby, but idk if a 35 year old commands that kind of a price...

I fully agree, I think it’s a bit much, but just trying to make it sufficient for the conversation. Probably drop the 2025 1st, but Crosby is exactly what they need right now. That’s a lot of retention to take on so it would be expensive. Those 1sts are 100% quite late consider that.

Hagel fetched two firsts and two roster players, so this is just one first more plus what ever is the difference between Katchouk and Raddysh compared to Olausson, Newhook, Merkley. Doesn't seem that much of an overpayment when you compare Hagel and Crosby as players, as the term is the same.

That's not really a fair comparison. TB has proven to give up whatever assets it takes to conveniently keep their window open. Hagel trade was an overpay at the time, but he proved to be worth it, fortunately for them.
