Post-Game Talk: ITS OVER- Did we make a huge mistake on Pierre-Luc Dubois Thread?

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

We can always try to get Nick Cousins or Alex Galchenyuk back both are ufas

It wouldn't be the first time idiot MB outbid himself.

Last time was just before he left.

Guy was actually asking for a raise!

LOL......................Great post!!
We all will never forget..................Hossa's gloves!!

I was in Vietnam during that whole fiasco and kept going back to the internet cafe to see if the trade happened yet haha.

 

[Ezpz]

I went to bed last night after refreshing a hundred times and now I wake up to zero progress.

The jets won't trade for a guy who won't sign a long term deal.

I mean they traded for PLD, so yes they will.

 

[OnTheRun]

LAK have already applied for arbitration for Vilardi. He's really not established enough player to be able to refuse a trade, and he's not UFA for another 3 years.

Still not a great idea if that's the plan. Vilardi would likely pick the 1 year option from the arbitration and the Jets would inherit yet another disgruntled player who doesn't want to be there. But then again, maybe Chevy is just eager to go through that shit every single summer.

such is life

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Bergevin is not the GM. He probably has little input.

People easily forget Bergevin's new reality

didn't they trade for dubois?

lmao

LA also paid to acquire Kevin Fiala just last year. Seems like they’re serious about their re-tool and don’t feel like pissing years away chasing some “optimal” result from drafting.

Seems like other teams have assets and drive to get players to substantially improve their roster. Most of these aggressively run teams are either more successful or as successful as the Habs. Teams that didn’t exist seven years ago have assets to acquire such players and win the Stanley Cup. Somehow the Habs happen to not be able to do this, basically ever.

Anyone who wants to give Bergevin credit has to admit he left a mess for Hughes. It wasn’t a “Stanley Cup Final” quality roster nor prospect pool and there were tons of underwhelming contract commitments to players who don’t come close to overperforming their cap hit.

Not really mad about PLD and I don’t think he’s the long awaited elite forward but it would’ve been nice to acquire him. Just as it was nice for LA to acquire Kevin Fiala last year. When you have a chance to add a substantial upgrade to your top6, you do it.

Stop it PLEASE
We have at least 4 tree stumps and also a quantity of nearly dead bushes on this team. I'm really not sure what you expect us to do until those are dealt with.
It's been said time and time again we are in no position for a like for like trade. Where exactly are all these wonderful players we are supposed to dangle.
How long has this new management been in place now? Give it break.

Love it.

 

[Team_Spirit]

The Jets fans on their board are so consumed with Habs fans and the low offers over the past month or so that they have dedicated every 2nd post to Habs fans. I think we got in their heads! LOL

In the end, i am relieved that Hughes displayed patience in not pulling the trigger on PLD. Hopefully this is the end of the saga. If PLD wants out of LA, i hope that is the warning sign to stay far far away.


Its called a rebuild. It takes time. Shortcuts generally hurt you in the end.

*rent free*

Every time Habs pass up on a “p’tit gars d’chez nous”, they get lambasted. f*** all the “p’tit gars d’chez nous” and f*** all the people stupid enough to initially criticize. I can’t wait to draft a bust next week. That’s all we’re good for: getting f***ed in the ass.

WTF. If you think it's stupid to go for the ptit gars de chez nous, then you should congradulate them for not biting. If we got Dubois, we would have gotten f***ed in the ass.

 

[BaseballCoach]

I never said his stats were padded by the PP.
I said with PP and the good amount of ice time he gets , he struggles to get 20 goals

Same as for the last years.

2nd on the teamn in EV goalsm, and youj say he struggles to score goals. Well then, the whole team struggles even more, including Suzuki at EV.

So does that mean we are bringing Drou-Drou back?

 

[Rapala]

If this thing gets done @Vachon23 is my new favorite source for PLD fun facts. He not only called the correct teams it looks like he nailed the time frame as well.

f*** yeah! We'll need more top 5 picks

 

[Kimota]

Time to get at our next target: Matthews.

 

[LV426]

Jet's fans thinking this is happening on the Hab's board.

Hab's board.

@Vachon23 is a rising star of this forum.

His rumor mongering has been top notch.
