The Sens went and signed Dadonov instead, which they traded for a 3rd and Holden, which is more than than Duclair got.
Other than Duclair outproducing Dadonov by a solid margin, in significantly less games. Even bigger spread for him the next season. Then he ruptured his achilies which obviously impacted a lot here.
Your argument to letting go of Duclair was so we could sign an inferior dadonov and get a return of holden and a 3rd? Lol boy that’s a reach if I’ve ever heard one
Yeah but Dorion obviously knew Duclair was going to get injured, he planned ahead.
Note how he won't respond to this lol
"inferior dadonov"
They seem like important details to me. You'd think if you're gonna be so forceful and condescending with the argument that these things would be considered and/or refuted. Oh well, it's all good, just putting my 2 cents in.
The injury is a red herring.
Maybe you should go further back in the thread. I'm not the condescending one here. I'm not the one who called others stupid and "bootlickers".
We just gonna casually ignore assists as if they don't count or..?
I will give you that there is some hostility that feeds into your own hostile response. That's the way this place seems to go. I still think you're wrong though and you should find points that are not as easily refutable to talk down to anyone that attempted to do the same to you.
If the achilles tear significantly impacts his trade value, then Dorion must be a f***ing genius for getting a 1st, 2nd and a conditional 3rd for Pageau after he tore his achilles.
How many more games had Pageau played after the injury compared to Duclair? It appears he came back that same year then played almost a full year and significantly exceeded his typical production, then was dealt in his prime with an extension negotiated.
New owners don't own the team yet
We don't need context. 3 is better than 5 and thus Dorion is 200IQ and we small brains just don't know it
LOL I mean they were traded in completely different years and for different reasons (Duclair a cap casualty) but I see logic not only defies Dorion but you as well.
I just don't get why it's so black and white to them. Hollow argument with way too many variables happening imo. There are times where you're obviously right and if you really want to, you can hang it over people, but this isn't it.
The fact that Duclair did not take Ottawa's offer was a mistake. But it is certainly a distinctly separate subject and has really nothing to do with the debate on Duclair versus Dadonov and the assets obtained from trading Dadonov. But it seems like it's an emotionally charged thing for some. Perhaps the thinking is that because Duclair snubbed Ottawa, everything that happened afterwards has to be better as Duclair deserves the subsequent ire of those people. I guess I'm trying to find a rationale why some individuals are ostensibly significantly downplaying Duclair's performance post Ottawa. I mean Duclair's regular season and playoff play was pretty decent for those that were watching.
For sure. There's so much going on with the two scenarios involved. And I'm not trying to slight anyone because it goes two ways here. I can even see where they're trying to go with it and why they see it as a W for their argument, but it just isn't that imo, not even in the ball park.
Nobody is calling him a genius for that.
if you want will be tarasenkov, more russian .
