Speculation: Pierre-Luc Dubois Mega thread. (LAK frontrunner, but Montreal has circled back)

[Nickel eye Heel hers]

LA will have no interest in Heinola and Stanley and would like to keep Pinelli.
I think Villardi and Iafallo => PLD


You are going to have to accept that your gm understands that Villardi and Iafallo => PLD

You will not get extras from Kings.

It actually sounds like J. Harkins might be headed your direction with Dubois. He should be a dependable bottom 6 player. 1 year left of contract and if the Kings decide to offer him a contract, it should be a very low team friendly one. He spent last season in the AHL but was good.

 

[Adam da bomb]

That's fine. You just said you had a suspicion that Samberg would be involved in the deal and I gave the Winnipeg view on Samberg. Not sure why you're now trying to say we're asking for more.

Jets fans aren’t asking for anything we’ll take the best we can get. Whether it includes more or not couldn’t care less.

 

[gojetsgo]

So basically we’re right we’re we were with the Chychrun nonsense.

if you trust the guy that says "Silence in these matters can mean a couple of things. 1. Deal is close. 2. Deal isn't as close."

I really wish your team was trading PLD with Montreal without other team involvements.
I believe you will get a lot of good young prospects and good players from them.

 

[LeapOnOver]

Vilardi is gonna be good. This is exactly the kind of thing you don't do with the way the NHL is being managed and the stagnant cap. You need young guys on reasonable contracts to compete. You'd think LA would have learned that by now.

 

[kilowatt]

How come it's common for the Kings to be in these drawn out nightmare trade scenarios? Does LA's front office just love to edge their fans?

It’s time to downgrade Pagnotta and “The Fourth Period” from “trusted sources.”

Thank you for this generous offering.

I believe J. Harkins < Pinelli

I do not believe you will receive Pinelli in this trade for this level of prospects.

You can have JAD…

the guy who said they haven't gave permission was the one that tweeted the terrible line about the silence, I wouldn't trust anything he had to say about what's going on with the jets, murat is more reliable and he tweeted earlier in the day that pld and the kings were talking contract extensions

I'm not sure if you've been following this saga for the past year but according to Montreal fans we'd be lucky to be getting back Christian Dvorak and an ok prospect.

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

As an outsider looking in, Villardi & Iafollo alone does not net you a 25-year-old No. 1 center

You forget that Jets are being FORCED to trade PLD it isn't like the Jets dont want to keep him. PLD has basically made this a two team race between the Habs and LAK and I am happy to see the LAK win this race

Yes, but this your team problem.

Kings should not do bidding against themselves.

 

[tbcwpg]

Again you're kind of going all over the place. You said the Jets would get good prospects and young players from Montreal and when I said probably not, you act as though you said the opposite.

No one is asking the Kings to bid against themselves. It sounds like the trade framework is already agreed upon and the contract with Dubois is the hold up.

While soon looks like it will be your team’s problem.

Because Rob Blake is a f***ing idiot. Also Luc & his best buddy Brisson are trying to work there magic for their own good and not the betterment of the team.

It sounds like the trade framework is already agreed upon but fans of your team are asking for more of high-level Kings prospects.

we don't know what the whole deal is going to be

 

[Ianturnedbull]

If you’re wealthy, LA is one of the best places to live in the entire world.

If you’re middle class or below, it sucks ass.

How does it compare to Barcelona, Zurich, Osaka, or even Vienna?

 

[kinghock]

we don't know what the whole deal is going to be

Here is the statement I can agree with.

I just do not believe that additional high-level Kings prospects will be available in this trade.

If Winnipeg decide to add their high-level prospects for this trade it will be different scenario.

 

[tbcwpg]

Good thing they don't negotiate trades then. We're just guessing the return. Someone reported it might be bigger than just Dubois so there's speculation.

I was just speculating about Samberg as well…

I never once mentioned Pinelli being part of the trade. I simply mentioned that Harkins was mentioned by saying he might be part of the trade. I haven't heard about Pinelli at all from a reputable source.

 

[HockeyWooot]

If it's really the speculated Villardi AND Iafallo, Jets should jump all over this.

 

[EastVillageBlues]

If it's really the speculated Villardi AND Iafallo, Jets should jump all over this.

I'm guessing there is another piece coming from WInn. Otherwise LA doesn't really improve their team, and the deal becomes pointless.

 

[Thechozen1]

I think dillon at 50% would get something good at the deadline

Yes, better than Lizotte.
