Joseph has 3yr/$2.95M.
He's basically a 3rd line winger, LH who's played RW.
Seems to be a good PK, but otherwise run of the mill, decent defense, meh offense.
Taking on his contract shouldn't come cheap, moving him elsewhere will require taking money back. But he might have value to a PO team that needs forward depth.
Mathieu Joseph: Joseph has only played 33 games this season due to injury, but when he’s in the lineup he provides the Senators exactly what you look for in a bottom six forward. He is used primarily at even strength and the penalty kill. The 6-foot-1, 190-pound forward averages 14 minutes of ice time. He contributes secondary offense (three goals, 10 assists) and can be relied upon to start and end periods with his responsible play. I continue to appreciate Joseph’s game. He’s an energy provider who competes every night.
Ostapchuk might interest Briere, center whose future is probably LW. Good speed, size, limited offensive skill, bottom six forward. Wheeler likes him. But is he worth 3 years of Joseph clogging the roster?
Boucher is a mediocre RW, pass.
Kleven is a stay at home LHD, we have plenty of those. Is he better than Ginning?
Ridley Greig is the prospect I'd target. But we might have to throw in a sweetener.
Greig is a driven, up-tempo forward of equal parts skill and work ethic who can play centre and the wing. He’s defined by his tenaciousness, but he can make plays in traffic, his wrister is accurate (though I wouldn’t say it’s threatening from long range), he’s willing to attack and try things, and he almost never looks to cheat or play selfishly within that game. He’s also an August birthday, which gives him continued runway to add elements offensively. He’s a gamer.
