I think it's a fabulous deal. One year too long for me, but that AAV is going to be good value. This is a good player who moves the needle for a team. He contributes a lot all over the ice, not just offense.
I'm honestly surprised at the responses to this. Ottawa had a lot of junk, but Pageau was one nugget of gold tucked away in all that junk.
Now, that being said, I think their acquisition cost of two top picks is too high, but that's another story. This is a good deal.
