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

[Dog]

I gotta say great move for LA. They knew it was a mistake and got out of it. They didnt get stubborn. Washington has a very interesting future lol

it's very special indeed of a future for caps. SPECIAL!

 

[End of Line]

Never should’ve traded for him in the first place

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

Is this why we bought CapFriendly? So no one could look at the PLD contract? Woof.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

If that's true, what a shit show for LA. We'll wait for the return but I feel they could've given him a little more time...

Blake undoing mistake isn't really a shitshow

If anything this is a shitshow in making for Caps IMO

 

[mr figgles]

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

Everyone was probably waiting for the sweep after the first few games. Now with so many days before the next game, all of the GMs are bored and want to get things moving.

 

[mkatcherin00]

Wow Washington lol

Just bailed out Blake

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

This was an idea Marek had a few weeks ago on his show or on 32 thoughts the pod, funny to see it happen.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Dubois lol

 

[Drumman44]

First you buy our favorite site then you trade for the player with the biggest attitude problem in the league? Capitals are the new league villains

 

[Ol' Jase]

Dubois’ fourth team and he’s only 26. Jesus.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Vilardi + Kupari + Iafallo for Darcy Kuemper? Ouch!

Im glad we didn't sign Kuemper or Georgiev during those offseason. Yes we got Campbell, but we are in the SCF.

 

[Baksfamous112]

I think winnipeg may have won the pld trade

So Montreal fans were ultimately right about the real value of PLD - which is next to nothing

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

I think so two

No weigh

 

[seafoam]

Pierre-Luc Du'bum' to the Metro, love it!

This seems like a lose-lose trade for both teams.

Washington takes on a horrendous long-term deal and gets nothing for it, while LA ended up paying a fortune for 1 bad year with PLD and now gets a shitty goalie with an expensive contract back.

LA lost the PLD trade the day it was made with Winnipeg... now we have a #1 goalie (which was the biggest hole) without PLD's albatross contract on the books for 200 years. its a win win for LA considering the position

I mean had he not had any history with Columbus and we traded Elvis for him, I would be pretty positive about it

 

[Jumptheshark]

WOW. LAK really wanted him gone

"A #1 goalie"

Might want to check on how Kuemper did last year.

You can't ignore the sunk cost of what they paid for Dubois a year ago in this deal. Washington lost the deal for taking on PLD's deal without getting anything of value for it, but LA is still an absolute loser in this deal for basically turning what they paid for last year into Kuemper.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Absolute robbery by LA.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Dubois’ fourth team and he’s only 26. Jesus.

He's definitely a problem. Bro wants the life without the work. He really thought he was going to sit and live in LA spend days on the beach while giving the effort he gave last season. I bet he washes out of the league with YEARS left on this contract.

 

[Leon Lucius Black]

The Caps on July 5th when they open up Cap Friendly and see Dubois' contract for the next 7 years.

 

[John Price]

Had to happen, Kuemper fell off his 2nd year.

Washington is all in on Chucky now

 

[Joe Hallenback]

The Kings would like to announce a trade.........


PLD + VILLARDI + IAFFALO + KUPARI + 2nd 2024 for.......

 

[Ceremony]

Is this why we bought CapFriendly? So no one could look at the PLD contract? Woof.

"Uh yeah he's got one year left at league minimum. Honest."
