Stajan is also older, almost has never played above the 4th line in the past few years and is weaker and less physical than Brouwer. Only edge he has over Brouwer in terms of value/worth is that he plays the more important position (centre). Stajan is as overpaid as Brouwer if not moreso.
Unless McPhee is a big Stajan fan I can't see them selecting him. They'd have to think he could play 2nd/3rd line centre and that is the only way you'd take him. It's a huge stretch to think they would view him that way at his age and at the stage of his career he's in. Otherwise the term and age on Brouwer is way more attractive or the upside of the minor league players is much more attractive.
