Player Discussion Christian Dvorak Part 2

[Leon Lucius Black]

Dvorak needs to get moved for everyone's sanity. I think he's a player that GMs view differently than the fans. I don't expect much in return, but I suspect KH will move him sometime this year to clear the way for another C

With Dach on the wing and Kapanen back in Europe, we likely won't see Dvorak moved anytime soon. Hopefully he can keep playing well with Gally/Anderson and at least build up some value for the trade deadline.

TDL was always the plan for Dvorak.

I’ve never been a big fan of Dvo’s game and truly believe we have 4+ players that could provide some jump if brought up from the Rockets. Dvo is a solid depth vet on a good team however he is just to vanilla on our struggling club. Realistically what’s his value, a 4th at best. Maybe we need to place him and Primeau on waivers. We still have a very young group & it might provide some excitement for these guys to see the GM doing his job by shaking up personnel.

I'm not sure what's worse, picking Kotkaniemi where we did or turning the 1st and a 2nd we got for him into Dvorak.

Another Bergevin masterpiece.

Picking KK where the Habs did. Especially with what we know now.

If they didn't pick KK they don't trade for Dvorak.

 

[The Great Weal]

5 points and 55.2% on faceoffs in his last 6 games, he's been playing a lot better since put with Gallagher/Anderson.

I mean it was only up after how he started out, he was probably the worst forward in the NHL. He still sucks, he's incredibly lazy defensively and his points increased because of Gally. I still won't complain if it means we can trade him.

500th NHL game for Dvorak = Dvorak's goal

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Picking KK where the Habs did. Especially with what we know now.

If they didn't pick KK they don't trade for Dvorak.

if they didn't take KK MB would have made an even worse move for a centre.

Why would they place Primeau on waivers. he is fine where he is. If Hughes goes then they will need him.

4.5 million a season for Christian Dvorak is wild.

Dvorak is a great example why one should never fall in love with mediocrity. Never build your team from bottom to top and expect that these specialists and role players may have a little extra in their sleeves when given the opportunity. They don't, and suddenly you're stuck with a pricey bottom-six that isn't even particularly great. A terrible acquisition which only deepened a previous mistake. Soon he will be gone and another scar caused by Bergevin' ineptitude may begin to heal.

Never been so excited to see a player off the team.

It's not even his fault really, he's always been a mediocre JAG signed in a panic by a GM who believed supporting players were more valuable than pure talent, but he's so boring and lifeless without any of the magic that some of the other mediocre players on this team are least sometimes give us.
