Thread: Ottawa Senators signed Jean-Gabriel Pageau (3 Years / $3,100,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>icehawk2006</b></div><div>This seems really over priced for a 33 point scorer. Tierney of the SJS scored 22 and is essentially making league min at $735K.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tadhockey</b></div><div>It seems like they're paying more for the legend of Pageau or his potential rather than his current ability level. It's not absolutely horrendous, but it isn't good by any stretch.</div></div>

Good thing signings are all about points, and have nothing to do with shutting down top lines, winning defensive draws, being the guy you have confidence throwing out there with 2 minutes left, ahead by a goal, 3 consecutive years of a PDO above 100, or advanced analytics.

edit : most deals are based off of potential and not current ability
