Value of: Kirby Dach

[Fatass]

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

And how are the Hawks doing? They’re going to teaching for a long time to find a big centre to play behind Bedard.

Dach is doing great WTF
If Dach is traded , it as to be for an other top 6 talent.

“Other top 6”
Broski Dach is a 3rd line player

Dach is not one of the pieces they'll be moving on from.

The guy is still not 100% from his knee injury, and you want to trade him now?

I get that his injury was disappointing last year, and he's still not 100% so far this season, but why trade him when you're not going to get great value for him?

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

Or when he broke his arm in world juniors and his arm looked like a pipe under a kitchen sink.

The Hawks are in a rebuild too, so they're doing bad, as they should be, just like Montreal, but they clearly realized quite some time ago that Dach is too fragile to be a reliable and dependable answer. Kid couldn't even make through a couple games at the World juniors without getting catastrophically hurt, so he's been showing the world what he is since day one

They'll move from him when his contract is about to be up. We've seen his performances regress with his multiple strings of injuries, hence his value being down to a throw-in in another trade.

He was fine in year one. He looked great in 2023 camp and right up to the injury in game 2. My only concern is his ability to win faceoffs - which may be a result of the wrist injury from Chicago. He's .5ppg to start the year after missing basically all of last year. I'm not throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Kinda funny considering two years ago many Habs fans labelled Dach untouchable in proposals for Dubois which as a Jets fan, I am glad because I had no interest in Dach whatsoever. Happy with the deal they got from the Kings.

Not that Dubois has been great, but regardless. Funny with how strongly some posters coveted him.

I would have pulled that trigger like a madman, so not all fans. ;-)

I am also very glad we never went for Dubois

I do believe though that Dach is very underrated right now. You don't comeback from missing almost two full seasons at that part of his development without initial struggles. I am not sure he will reach out near his potential to match his draft ranking but he has NHL talent. I would certainly not look to trade him.

You should be VERY happy, Chevy absolutely ROBBED Blake!

It's insane that any fans are mad about the start, Montreal is in a rebuild, the goal should have been to be 0-10-0. They've only missed the playoffs for 3 years now and a proper rebuild should see them out for 5 at least. they still need a few more high end picks, and then need them to actually work out, better than Newhook and Dach so far at least

That's not how you rebuild. That's actually the worst way to go when entering year 3 of a rebuild. You can't throw out a disgrace of a team on the ice and then expect the kids you drafted high to grow through that pain. That's a loser mentality and wouldn't work in a real life (rebuild) situation.

I'm not sure what this has to do with PLD. Dach wasn't available for PLD and for good reasons.
