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

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Man, Bruins moving and shaking.

They must have something time sensitive they’re after.

they have like 16m and have to pay taxes money due to some contracts and have a bunch of players to sign to have a complete roster

Unless there is more moves , Boston won't be adding a top player

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Could be a last ditch effort to get the Habs to beat the Kings offer

Could be he won't sign long term in LA and they're still really hoping to send him to MTL

Could be total clickbait and he's literally in the process of signing in LA.

As long as HuGo sticks to the plan, I'll be alright with it.

Darren, is that you?


Jk

Not when you’re a rebuilding team with 2 RHD in the pipeline.

This fixation on Dubois is amusing. It would seem that no asset, present or future, is untouchable in this quest for barter. Its almost like a drug.

Dave Pagnotta was on 690, he said this is a massive trade. Why it's taking so long. With three players leaving Winnipeg

He has been saying the same thing since yesterday.

He also 'broke' the Chychurin trade that fell through and all the other actual insiders are saying it's wide open.

I'm not buying it tbh.

Didn’t expect foligno to be includedd

Foligno is UFA, but it gets rid of his cap now. Rumors are Boston has an agreement already with Bertuzzi so maybe they announce that signing soon.

They haven't moved enough. They now have $10, 937,500 in cap space but have to sign 6 forwards and Swayman.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

On Friday, every team will be able to talk to him. June 29, the day after draft, is when RFAs can talk to other teams.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Make up your f***ing mind Elliot!

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Man can he sign in L.A already zzzz

I think people don't grasp how hard it will be for the Bruins to put together a team, considering they are not getting sweetheart deals on Bergeron and Kreijci this time around AND have to pay their differed bonuses.

Signing Bertuzzi will hamper this to the point where I just don't see what they can accomplish next season.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

I love how all those tweets , those journalists think they know everything , most of them change opinions and backtracker to comeback just to fit the narrative.

Man journalism sure fell off

... Thanks to Twitter and other social medias....

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Well even if he signs 8 years in LA he will surely come home after that deal is done

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

I mean you are not wrong , it's like they have some sources but most of it comes from tweets so they copy eachother so they can never be wrong lol

He is spewing bullshit out of his ass. This dude has no source or inside information. He simply does not have the stature.

 

[CharleyHorse]

I'd even argue that Carey Price contract killed any chance he had to win a cup. If he had accepted $8M (which is an insane amount as it is) and the extra $2.5M went towards even better defense (UFA) then he'd have cemented his career and legacy.
I understand the objective is to make "as much as possible" but at what point does life become easier on a winning team for 5 years? there is no difference in lifestyle btw $8M and $10M, it's not like $80K v $100K for us commoners. or even $1M v $3M for the ELC guys.

Up until this last PO season, I'd have whole-heartedly agreed with you, and maybe still do somewhere deep inside. But after watching the Bruins punch their ticket to a golf course early on, despite Bergeron leaving money on the table to allow the Bruins to get more pieces in the hopes of win a cup, I am not entirely convinced Price would have a cup had he accepted less money.

Well he must have *some* inside source of some sort to be able to spew bullshit out of his ass, doesn't he?

 

[Skip Bayless]

Make up your f***ing mind Elliot!

Wasn't he the one who said "Montreal and it's not even close."

Now he's all like "I know a lot of people say Montreal, but it's L.A."

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

This fixation on Dubois is amusing. It would seem that no asset, present or future, is untouchable in this quest for barter. Its almost like a drug.

The entire reason to be interested in Dubois is to get an asset relatively cheaply or free. Hopefully if Winnipeg comes back to Hughes the offer doesn't change or if different it is of similar value. Can't cave and offer more or it will hamper other trade negotiations.

 

[MrNasty]

a little ironic that LA acquired the Habs 2nd round pick next year in the Durzi trade. You have to think they deliberately asked for that pick so Montreal can't offer sheet Dubois

Dubois isn't signing an offer sheet - that gives control to Wpg who can match.

 

[Mcdonaldz]

It’s like Dubois is a pretty lady, you ask her out « hey beautiful queen would you like to go out with me » … then she say NO and all of the sudden you need to tell her … « you’re such an ugly cow anyway »

 

[Habaneros]

Man can he sign in L.A already zzzz

This is Taylor Hall to Montreal ...remember.....Hall wanted to come but ....same reason here on PLD.

 

[le_sean]

The other night during the NBA draft, Shams (insider) was leaking every pick minutes before they were being announced. Except the Raptors. He had nothing.

The Habs are like the Raptors, they don’t leak anything. I don’t think insiders actually know anything with them.
