thats an over payment

How come in a previous acgm you have pulijarvi and a 2nd for pageau yet this acgm you need jost and a 1st, seems like you're charging colorado more for the same guy?

I'm of the opinion that colorado doesnt need pageau but that all depends on how long kadri is out

With alll the recent injury, there might be a bidding war due to the increasing number of injuries throughout the league and the fact that JGP is the best rental Centre available lol. One thing for sure is that there will be a GM who will overpay for JGP just like Jarmo did when he rented Ryan Dzingel.

So you're saying the sakic overpaid because he needs a 2c for 2-4 weeks?

No. I'm just saying there's will probably be a bid war for Pageau because he the only rental Centre available. Like I said, even if Sakic isn't part of the "overrated auction" others GM will probably consider pulling off a "jarmo kekalainen move" by overpaying JGP.

You misunderstood my question

I didn't say Sakic was the only to consider overpaying for a rental. Any GM onsidering to acquire Pageau would have to overpay because he's the only good Centre available for rental. Thus, some GM could be as desperate as Kekalainen was in 2019 TDL would overstate Pageau's TDL rental value.

Then again, i cant see Dakic being that desperate because he's probably following Cheveldayoff's "rebuilding framework" by being patient asf and wait until majority of top prospect are NHL ready before jumping into the rental bidding war.
