Had he signed Danault and traded KK for a bonefied C, there wouldn't be a Dvorak. Then again, he pulled a fast one on the Canes with Aho and then once again stole their first round pick.
45 minutes on how the Preds aren’t allowed to go to the U2 concert anymore.
I think everyone would have been happier just resigning Danault even though it would’ve been seen as an overpayment at the time.
Finally, the narrative in aug 21, he's better and cheaper than Dano, it was all wrong? And he cost a 1rst and a second, gezzz ...
He missed big time there. It started when he made Gallagher 'his' man and not Danault.
I mean his underwhelming tenure in MTL has tanked his value. The price would have surely been paid by another team if it hadn't been for Bergevin and his total desperation but the dude has been a total dud.
It was a fine Hail Mary, I just didn’t want to give MB a pass as he ultimately put himself in that corner.
No it was used on Maveric Lamoureux.
Well he could have traded one of the million b level prospects we had for McCann instead of using the last retention slot in the expansion draft on UFA Armia before giving him that horrendous contract. Dvorak was a good player in Arizona, likely a 3rd line guy still, but he was way better than how he's playing here.
And what if Matheson has a shit year next year? You lost all possibilities to get some nice future for him (just like we did with Anderson or Petry a few years ago). Its primordial for this rebuild that Hughes trades him for haul this tdl. You can always sign a guy like Edmundson for one year for the veteran presence.
Not to mention he didn't trade Tatar and sat him during the playoffs.
Should have passed on Dvorak if he couldn't get him for a 1st only. Once KK and Danault were gone the season was lost anyway since they were still short 2 centres. And he should have traded whatever he had to in order to get another centre if he was going to get Dvorak.
To Pittsburg:
