Agree with all your points..... The Jets will still take a hit here IMHO...but it won't be as bad as it was looking 24 hour ago

Now by whats PLD agent has reportedly stated he's open to extending with multi teams and not just the habs.............so thats good news. In the end I don't where he goes, Habs or any where else, just care about getting the best value we can and filling needs on the roster or futures

The Dubois camp will submit a list of teams that he would have interest in signing with long-term, maybe five or six teams. Of course, they will need to determine the willingness of those teams to add Dubois and his new contract before putting them on their list. The Canadiens, who reached out to the Jets as soon as their season ended, will be on that list. Cheveldayoff will then work off that list to try and negotiate the trade that helps the Jets the most.
Meanwhile, Brisson can begin talking to those teams about the parameters of a new contract. The plan is for this to be a sign-and-trade, where the Jets sign Dubois to an eight-year contract and then trade him to his new team. Dubois could not get an eight-year deal if he signed directly with that team, and the Jets can extract more value with a signed and delivered player. This is exactly what the Calgary Flames and Florida Panthers did with Matthew Tkachuk last summer.
This is very good news for the Jets.
Sounds like Dach is back on the table, boys, if you want a crack at him.
Hilarious that he wants a premium to play for Montreal LMAO!
So much for the “we’ll just get him for free” crowd.

Always seemed to me he would be getting the Horvat return
With the way they talked about how happy management was with Dach progression that is highly unlikely

Good points
PLD would be a positive on the ice for Montreal, but at 9M I'd rather stay away.
He's not bad or anything, but either him or Suzuki would play 2nd line and make 8M or more per year - both aren't superstar status

PLD seems like such a whiney little bitch. so Where do you want to play then bud?
didn't PLD request a trade from an OHL team too?
I dunno if I would want to offer this guy a long term contract. so what you sign him long term and expect to build around him then he just asks for a trade? f*** that high risk low reward

Are you surprised? I've said a million times to certain Habs posters zero chance he takes any discount to play for the Habs, he will go for max dollars.

Yea, I think 7.5-8M x 8 years is probably a realistic expectation, high end 2C.
Lol in that same article it says they like dach and don’t know how to fit Dubois with dach still on the team implying no to trading dach. Talk about selective reading

Dach is absolutely not on the table my dude.
It'll be like the Horvat trade.
Late 1st
B proapect
Cap dump
Similar players, similar value.

What he asks for and what he gets won't be the same thing.......but I've said for months now expect PLD new deal assuming its long term to be in the 8-9 million range and lots of posts to prove that.

horvat was traded as a rental, pld will be traded with an 8 year contract, yes horvat ended up extending but it wasn't a guarantee that he would, horvat was also 28 where pld is only 24
But that's a bit different. Dubois actually wants MORE from Montreal than what he would ask from a contender.
That's hilarious.
I don't have a subscription. I'm relying on you guys to bring the relevant points to the forums.
Vancouver got the 17th OA in a deep draft. That's considered a "late 1st"?
I dunno about you... but I think there is a HUGE difference between 17 OA and 31 OA.
Horvat is 3 years older than Dubois. That is a key factor in value. Isles didn't get Horvat as a signed player, so they had to gamble that they could sign him long-term.
Horvat will be 35 years old in the final season of his 8 year contract. Dubois would be 32.
Oh the burn. Ouch. Montreal has to get invited to the playoffs in a bubble where no players wanted to be and they think they are good cause teams just want to get the season over with? It hurts so much. It will be funny when in 2033 when hab fans are still talking about that year…..is that Bruce Springsteen I hear playing in the background…..Glory Days…20 years ago…Glory Days

This guy thinks he's PLD'S agent.
Look Wings haven't a shot at getting for more than a one yr rental so get over it.
Funny how PLD was worth a fortune before everyone found out that it's true that Dubios wants and will be on the Habs team within 2 yrs at the latest.

Trouba had a 1 team trade list, so the Jets had no leverage, they will have more leverage now. The 1st you say is Florida's and has no value now that its more then likely 31.
