Confirmed Trade: [WSH/LAK] Pierre-Luc Dubois for Darcy Kuemper (no salary retained)

[Oilslick941611]

Why would the Capitals take on that contract?? That’s unbelievable.

probably because the Capitals are about enter a decade of darkness after OVI retires.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Well so much for Dubois enjoying that LA lifestyle

 

[GKJ]

The league has obviously lost control of ‘do not do things before the finals end’ thing. Maybe don’t give the rest of the league like 20 minutes to do their entire offseason.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

That could be a disaster contract for Washington. Good luck.

 

[Satan]

What on earth, I did not have that on my bingo card

Elliots not on earth, hes on a plane

 

[Canadienna]

Happening before the 1/3 buyout window right?

Maybe WSH is going to get a bunch of pieces to take him and buy him out.

 

[Super Cake]

Is it just me or is it very odd that so many trades are happening while the finals are also still happening?

If the scf really does go to game 7, then the draft will be 4 days later. Terrible scheduling imo.

How Rob Blake is allowed to make this move is crazy to me.

 

[Soundgarden]

Wow, it's trade day.

 

[BHawk21]

Huge for LA

 

[tbcwpg]

Hahahahahaha

 

[Alex K]

If true Washinton are really stupid!

I mean they used capfriendly to track salaries. Yes, they are.

 

[Taswell]

Is it just me or is it very odd that so many trades are happening while the finals are also still happening?

Well the finals go late this year and there isn't much time between the end and the draft, so I think GM's are just in f*** it mode.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Wow, that's a pretty big move...

 

[Dr Amazing]

Cap Friendly's revenge.

 

[EveryDay]

Along with Huberdeau it's the worst contract in the NHL.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Lol instant buyers remorse from LA.

This deal is going to look terrible for LA after what they paid for him a year ago.

 

[theMajor]

lets see what BLUC has cookin'

 

[JoVel]

Let's share a thought with all the Capitals defensemen if Ovechkin and Dubois ever play on the same line.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Wonder what the pound of flesh will be

 

[Ol' Jase]

probably because the Capitals are about enter a decade of darkness after OVI retires.

Maybe, but based on his play, Dubois will provide about as much light in that darkness as a wickless candle.

 

[Seachd]

Dubois for Kuemper. That’s it.
