Confirmed Trade: [LAK/WPG] Pierre-Luc Dubois (signs 8 years, $8.5M AAV) for Gabe Vilardi, Alex Iafallo, Rasmus Kupari, 2024 2nd round pick

Fiala - PLD - Arvidsson

I think this is likely PLD's new wingers for next season. PLD and Fiala together have a ton of potential to become one of the most dangerous duos in the NHL. Fiala is still the better player of the two though.

Doubt it
Moore - Danault Arvidsson is the oldest long term line.
They play good d and chip in goals.
Kaliyev will be RW for PLD and Fiala

I hope Kaliyev gels there

I think Kaliyev along with several other wingers will get a shot here. Byfield may play on that line, maybe Grundstrom, maybe Fagemo as well.

 

[Frank Drebin]

The best they could offer for Dubois was Anderson, Dvorak, and a spoonful of shit.

Not sure why you're still crying about that.

Not sure why you're still crying about that.

Crying? More like laughing. Although both tend to sometimes bring tears so i can see the confusion.

I guess thats two of us that think its funny you were offered a spoonful of shit

Byf is gonna stay with K and K , to start.
But ya , its a long season, form , injuries matchups will change things at times.

You bet! Derp! Worked out great in the end for us!

Did it really though?

Did it really though?

Sure did!

 

[Frank Drebin]

Sure did!

Did it really, though? You gave up the best player in the deal. Maybe/hopefully Vilardi can replace PLD, but its far from a sure thing.

Did it really though?

Worked out a lot better than Habs fans "guaranteed" that it would. That's the point

Habs fans in general do not care about the Jets or Kings. We "guaranteed" you wouldn't be getting the type of package from Montreal that you did from LA.

 

[TS Quint]

Habs fans still obsessing over PLD? Hahaha!

 

[jokesondee]

All Vilardi has to do is not disappear after the all-star break and we'll be ahead of the game.

Come on dude... how many "you'll have to accept Dvorak and a 2nd from us because he 100% wants to be in Montreal and he's coming for free in a year anyway so you'll take it and you'll like it" posts were there? Hundreds...

Had you guys said "we aren't trading assets for him" then bowed out of the convo, things would be different. But there were certain posters who continued their bullshit, and now they are gonna hear about it.

 

[Voight]

lol no

Please explain how Suzuki is a level above PLD then.

 

[Voight]

How dare you! This guy is the next Sakic! Ask any Habs fan! They'd have to think long and hard about trading him straight up for McDavid. The best they could offer for Dubois was Anderson, Dvorak, and a spoonful of shit.

According to them Anderson is wanted by many teams around the league but Hughes wants a high price and won't settle for anything less

Same fanbase that insisted Monahan would return them. 1st round p[ick because of an early season hot streak.

No one cares that jets fans are "rubbing our noses" in that we didn't get PLD. We didn't want him badly enough to give up a fair package for him. Fact is, Montreal was in the conversation till the end, and if LA didn't come up with that offer Jets likely would have had to settle for whatever Montreal had to offer.

much more consistent in his level of play

But they didn't have to settle. That's the point

It's ok to admit that you were wrong. It's a sign of intellectual security

Peanut Gallery Dullard Fallacy

The Peanut Gallery Dullard Fallacy is most often encountered on hockey internet forums. While obnoxiously quoting other more commonly known logical fallacies, the PGD does not realize the sweet irony of his or her (or its) inane pronouncements. You see, the fallacy is simply this: There can only be one. Highlander, Lord of the Rings, Neo, whatever. Move aside. Only one NHL team (and it's GM, President, HC, etc.) made no mistakes. Everyone else on every other team is an incompetent moron. Period.

Emboldened by a 96.875% chance of being "correct," the PGD loudly projects...er, proclaims the inadequacies of his team's GM over and over again, knowing that the ace up his or her (or its) sleeve is the one in a million chance his team actually wins the Cup. As with most inadequacies, the PGD will defend his or her (or its) proclamations belligerently, mustering up cohorts of other PGDs like a merry Band of Broheims to drown out any and all opposing opinions. Gasp! [Autistic girl snarl] How dare they? [/Autistic girl snarl]

Yes, I am a Kings fan. Guess where you can find an entire board of PGDs echoing the same logical fallacy over and over again. They think their monolithic negativity signals intelligence, but in reality it's just a primal emo scream: "Leave Britney alone!"

Sigh....a paradigm shift back to normalcy is long overdue.

You have won the internet today good sir! *tips fedora*

About the "he's coming to Montreal anyway 100% in a year so our offer will have to be accepted because chevy has no choice" (as I stated before)

There were Habs posters saying that right up until the deal with LA was finalized lol

Why don't you admit you were wrong when you said that?
