Imagine if Buff was in the locker room at the same time as Dubois. We all know Buff wouldn’t have put up with any of that shit.

It sure feels like something happened. After his comments, now the team seemingly quitting? Ooof.

Last year I wanted the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs to win the Cup, so hopefully that doesn’t happen again this year.

Whiteout Is Coming.
So the best Canadian team in the regular season is the first Canadian team eliminated while the other 3 advance to round 2 or at least 7 games in round one.
So it looks like the Leafs figured it out in the 3 losses the refs gave Boston 11 PPs and in the 3 wins the Leafs only took 4 penalties.
At least Boston is constant they give the Leafs at least 3 PPs every game.

Last night was one of those flow of the game things. Boston had 1 shot through half the game, you're not going on the PP when you don't have the puck.
Have to say the longer it went with the Leafs being so dominant and not scoring I felt like they were definitely going to lose.

If we played in the East we would sleep walk to the finals
The hockey is slow and bad compared to the West this season

The Athletic’s Eric Duhatschek calling for a PLD buyout in year one.

Duhatschek notebook: The L.A. Kings' awkward place with Pierre-Luc Dubois, and draft lottery luck
L.A. has a simple, but expensive, solution to its Dubois problem — admit they made a grievous error and pay the man to go away.

I think the hockey in the east is pretty stale this year. That Toronto/Boston series is boring and slow

Because Dubois is only 25 years old, that means he could be bought out for one-third of his remaining contract value. If a player is 26 or older when they're bought out, it costs two-thirds the remaining value. Dubois will turn 26 on June 24.
BUT....
The first buyout window opens either on June 15, or 48 hours after the Stanley Cup Final ends, whichever is later. And, according to the NHL's key dates calendar, the last possible day of this year's Stanley Cup Final is...June 24. If the playoffs go late enough, the Kings may not even have an opportunity to buy out Dubois at one-third the rate.
And add to that actually having the cap hit for the next 14 years.... Ouch.
I think the GM ( if he wants to keep his job ) and the team itself, just has to keep him and hope he actually can be a better player.

Wonder if it's worth cheering for Toronto just for the non-trivial chance Montgomery might get fired out a cannon directly into our laps?

The masters of giving chances to other teams' castoffs. They've got a ridiculous number of great players for practically nothing by just being open-minded: Forsling was a waiver claim, Verhaeghe was abandoned by Tampa (although they claimed to have known the talent afterwards, there just wasn't room then), Stolarz was dumped from the Ducks... even guys like Mikkola and Rodrigues have been nice depth additions for relatively little cap space.
And having Barkov helps too.
