I like Crosby, but not at that price... Nothing to do with him, more so his age and Joseph Woll

Crosby and Bedard would be the most fun way to completely ruin the rebuild. I'd enjoy the hell out of 2 years and then regret it for 15.

Holy crap

36 years old, for your starting goalie, top forward and defensive prospect and 2 1sts... Not going to do that as you need a full team to win

So, you would pay Levi+Benson+Wahlberg+2 1sts for Crosby?

I so wanna see Crosby join a younger contender as a 2nd liner and just fade to third as the yrs role on.

Him in Colorado would be next level. Even though my Canucks would be screwed.

1 year of crosby will not get you nearly as much as you hope. He has a full NMC and you'll send him out to wherever he wants to play (colorado) out of respect for him

A whole lot of you definitely missed the part where I asked a question in the description and just wrote some variation of "you're dumb" instead of providing any thoughts about what might work. Sad!
