Any GM that wants PLD after following his career should be immediately fired for terrible judgment. This is who he is and a change of scenery is not going to change his intensity and how hard he plays.

Well, at least he turned out to be better than Jesse Pulijujarvi. Recall that Columbus was expected to draft Pulijujarvi given that the GM was also Finnish. The then Columbus GM took a chance on Dubois, and it looked to be a good gamble-for a while...heck his value improved so much from the day he was drafted to the time of being traded to Winnipeg that the Jets were willing give up Patrik Linne to get him.

The next year Nick Suzuki became a dominant player in the OHL and Bergevin pass for a genius instead of being lucky. Cody Glass never developed to be the dominant player as predicted and end up in Nashville, Tennessee with the Predators.

@nummytacos128 14 күн бұрын

Even if it makes them look really bad, they should totally do this or at least trade him. If they save ~5.5m a year doing this for 14 years, they can easily pick up a 2nd line forward with that money especially with the increasing salary cap. They still have Byfield, Roy, and Arvidsson to sign, and I'm thinking they need lock all 3 up because they have so few right handed shots on the team as is. They also need to sign a competent young goalie that can be their starter for 5 years with Portillo serving as backup. There's not many great free agent goalies next year, so they'll probably have to trade for one, or be willing to sign someone like Kahkonen or Samsonov. I'm hoping they involve Dubois in a trade like was rumored near the trade deadline with the Bruins. Maybe Pittsburgh is more willing to trade Jarry now that Letang and Malkin are hitting their peaks? Dubois could serve as a transition center once the Penguins start rebuilding in a few years.

The only realistic option is to get a more offensive minded coach/system and then see if it awakens something in Dubois. A buyout at this point makes little sense

@irafair3015 13 күн бұрын

I disagree, a buyout makes a lot of sense, that is, if you want to win.

maybe hes sucking on purpose. if he can get a buyout . he can head to montreal where he wants to go. habs sign him for a year for a test run

He wants a buyout so he can take his lazy azz home and collect checks. It's like a single player Major League.

Pierre Luc Bergevin. Lol... Chris Letang and Johnny Huberdeau. Worst contracts in the league. All from ... la belle province. Coincidence. Not.

@benjaminharrison5342 14 күн бұрын

Yeah I think that is a coincidence. The similarity between each of those teams is they overpaid to retain a player that they shouldn't have, not that the player is from Quebec. Those were emotional decisions not completely supported by evidence. Penguins wanna keep the gang together. LA doesn't wanna rebuild. Calgary couldn't afford to get nothing from the Tkachuk trade.

Dubois did this on purpose. Get the buyout money and sign a for 4 million a year for 5 years with habs.

@alexmouton1010 14 күн бұрын

how though? half winging it and floating around with occasional flashes for years would have me offering no more than a one year prove it deal regardless of the team. To be real though, the Habs are doing fine and Dubois seems like the kind of guy who's going to mess with the team mojo and probably drag a couple of guys into the local city nightlife

POS is 25 years old and already on his 3rd NHL team! That's all you need to know about him! Not skilled, not a great teammate, just a middling NHL players that will never be anything special other than having a nice bank account, but with a buyout that's not even all that great for a supposedly elite player! They need to dump him if at all possible and just move on!
