Is this the same Kirby Dach who was untouchable in a PLD trade becaue he was destined for the HHOF?

No point trading him, he can’t stay healthy and isn’t that good

Better to just keep him and hope for the best

More like, no one sane would trade positive value assets for an overpaid bitch like Dubois. That doesn’t make Dach untouchable, though.

You mean the PLD who ended up being a cap dump less than a year after his acquisition? If so, then yes, it’s the same Kirby Dach
Yeah, the guy who has 45 more points than Dach over last season and this season because getting hit with a light breeze doesn't put him on IR for the season

Dach played a game and a half.

Also, if I remember properly, you were one of biggest Dach fanboy at the time and expressed multiple times that he NEEDED to be added to any deals including PLD.

Weren’t you also the biggest Laine fanboy ever telling everyone how he is easily a top 5 winger in the league then started sh*tting on him the second he left Winnipeg?

We have a name for those kind of people here. I’m sure you can figured it out what it is

Exactly (to the bolded). The guy is a walking bandaid

Yes, I was pushing for Dach in a PLD trade. I still think it would have worked out well for both sides (thus my comment in this thread - I found it ironic that a Habs poster wants to move him)

No, I'm not that Laine guy

So take your word (whatever it is) and apply it to someone else

Anyway, I hope you continue to enjoy your perpetual rebuild. Maybe someday it will get better for Habs fans

RHD Justin Holl, 2nd round pick, 4th round pick, and F Elmer Soderblom(prospect).

Red Wings can afford to roll the dice and play him on the wing with Compher/Kane, Kasper/Tarasenko or Larkin/Raymond.

Idk why Montreal trades him, they'll never get good value.

How would that have worked out for Winnipeg if Dach can’t stay healthy as you previously said?

Also, Habs are in year 3 of a rebuild. Not sure where you’re going with your perpetual rebuild but we both know where they’re headed and it’s to a bright future whether you want to admit it or not

The entire Habs team isn’t doing well. Dach on the block would return a ton for the Habs. Not seeing them doing that though. He’d be impossible to replace.
Davidson sure didn't think he was impossible to replace and I imagine you and Hughes won't think so either by the time he's an RFA, if not sooner

We ended up with Vilardi, who is another bandaid - so it would have been equivalent lol

As for your rebuild, they can take a decade or more - in fact, ask Buffalo fans. And Detroit fans. And all the other markets where the idea of tanking didn't work

It *almost* worked in edmonton, but look at the volume of top 5 picks they've had

Just because you're adding top 10 picks each draft doesn't mean you might not ever see a winning team in the next decade

The hyperbole is strong in this one.
I'm just repeating what I was told by Habs fans a couple of years ago

Dach's career ended when Makar undressed him for that beauty of a goal.
