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

[Atoyot]

Harris easilly cracks the Jets top6.

He'd a better D then Heinola, stanley, schmidt and similar upside to Samberg.

He'd play on the Jets defense for sure.

Heinola and Stanley aren't in the Jets' top 6.

 

[TS Quint]

You think Vilardi ans Iafallo is up there in terms of value with 5OA?

no. I said the #5 would beat that and no way the Habs would do it. I don’t think the Habs have the available pieces to beat the supposed Kings offer.

This thread is like 90% Hab fans since the rumour that PLD prefers LA, despite the fact that MTL fans either don’t want him or don’t want to pay a lot. Beggars and choosers or something…

That tweet saying PLD prefers LA is probablyan error made by Dregs. I think Winnipeg prefers the LA package as they're getting back players that can fill their lineup.

I could be wrong

Wether you need him or not is moot.

If PLD fomes back from LA without an 8 year contract, Vilardi won't be on the table.

And at that point, Harris + 31st becomes the best offer on the table and Chevy won't have any other choice but to take it.

And Harris plays the right aide quite well.

 

[ManixLiquid]

I just want this saga to be over. PLD needs to signs that contract with LA so we can all move on.

PLD actually said, not just his agent or rumor, he wants to play with a contender. The Habs are 5 years away from the playoffs. His words sound like he would prefer LA.

Man, stop this. You’re a guy in total dark playing armchair GM - you have no clue what Hughes, Blake, Chevy or PLD want.

 

[GeorgeJETson]

Jets leaked every name. They trying for bidding war. Knowing PLD won't sign in LA

The biggest complaint from Jets fans is how the org always keeps its cards close to the chest that there's almost no rumours involving the Jets every offseason.

It gets so bad that it has sparked jokes about Chevaldayoff doing all is work from the cottage and not getting cell reception.

Highly doubtful the Jets org would be behind any leak just to get a bidding war. They always act too squeaky clean for something like that.

Hey it could be, I was just saying reading that it seems like it was more Winnipeg than PLD that prefers but anyways..

I hope it works out for him

Exactly. I blame Dubious for Everything.

First he teased Montreal fans now he prefers LA (according to Dredger). It’s one thing to to jerk around Columbus and Winnipeg but jerk around your home is another.

If I was Montreal I would not want anything to do with Dubois. But I guess for winnipeg he is helping us get the best deal.

 

[FerrisRox]

True if his opinions go against someone’s narrative.

I would find his opinions as a former GM more compelling than a random HF fan TBH.

Craig Button claimed, in the piece you offered up, that the Canadiens window is right now.

That opinion goes against everyone's narrative. It's idiotic.

 

[BatVader]

Just me or does anyone else think Craig Button looks like a Disney animated poodle?

" LA has that and it appears PLD prefers the LA option." idk but to me this comes off as pld prefers the la option

 

[FerrisRox]

i can respect that

if thats the case then i guess LAK can put Dubois on the wing for a year until Kopitar retires dont see PLD playing 3rd line minutes

If I were the Kings, I would definitely be using Dubois in a top six role, but I wouldn't have him at centre until one of Kopitar or Danault slip behind him on the depth chart.

 

[KingsHockey24]

I can already hear Blakes conference call post trade:

"We wanted to get bigger and PLD plays that hard nosed game that we desired; he will now be the teams enforcer along with Blake Lizotte."

You are wrong.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

If LA get him... let's start a new pool.

How soon before PLD forces LA's hand and asks to be traded?

 

[sabresEH]

Hearing it’s official.
PLD for Iafallo, Kupari, Vilardi and a ‘24 2nd.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

You are wrong.

cool, he can enjoy LA then lol

 

[Thechozen1]

The LAK deal sounds like GM manufactured bs to get Habs to overpay. When a rumor has been out 48+ hours with 0 progress than the rumor was more likely than not fabricated or at least given too much importance.

So you’re privy to their conversations now? There no way you know for fact that there’s been NO progress. Perhaps they’re still negotiating pieces and the RUMOURED framework of the deal isn’t actually completely agreed upon yet.

Instead you make up a fabricated theory in your own head and run with that.

That pool was started a while ago and all the squares are full

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Habs fans: No Dach
Jets fans: no deal makes sense without Dach.

End of conversation? no, no, no. Here's 84 pages debating how MTL gets PLD.
