Pageau is 4 years older than Bennett and has 3 more years of pro experience. He had arbitration rights and the three year deal buys one year of UFA status for the Sens.
Their stats over the last two seasons have been close, with Pageau putting up a few more points in each season. Other than that, they're not really comparable for all the other things that go into determining a player's contract value.
