Ghostsof1915 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 And to think, I was upset we didn't draft him. As others have said. Dodged a bullet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Blake better make some crazy good trades and draft picks. Because he's on thin ice I imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaster Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Wow! Caps GM must have been high when he agreed to this trade. PLD has got to be one of the top 5 worst contracts in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Doobwah is so stupid, he locked a life changing contract and gets to play in sunny LA with the beaches and shit and he still effed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJockitch Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Remember the superstar Laine PLD swap. 2 players nobody wants now. Both those GMs were probably laughing that they found a taker for their head case only to get a different flavour of head case. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coryberg Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 55 minutes ago, Curmudgeon said: In 2016, Vancouver was seeded third pick overall BEFORE the draft lottery dropped them two spots to fifth (and chose Juolevi) If they had retained their third position, they would absolutely have taken Dubois. To review, Dubois has worn out his welcome in Columbus, Winnipeg and now Los Angeles and he's only 25. Worse, he's due $8.5M AAV for another SEVEN seasons. What on earth is Brian McLellan thinking by acquiring a guy who has had problems fitting in everywhere? Washington is on the downside of Ovechkin's career and adding Dubois isn't going to improve them much at all. Meanwhile we have Juulsen at $775,000. Benning was playing 3D chess!

Curmudgeon Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 1 hour ago, DeNiro said: Actually there was a deal in place to acquire Subban from Montreal if Dubois was there at our pick… I didn't know that. Makes more sense now that Benning went for Juolevi instead of Tkachuk. He was looking for a defenceman rather than the best player available. Dolt.

HKSR Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 6 minutes ago, Bob Long said: this is Benning level asset management. LA is being mismanaged into the ground. They used to have such a bright future ahead of them with depth in so many areas. I might be incorrect, but I do believe at one point they had Doughty, Roy, Walker, and Durzi all down the right side for their defence. They also had Kopitar, Byfield, Vilardi, Iafallo, Kupari down the middle. Two of the most difficult positions to lock up depth and they had tons of it. Then I dunno what they did, but they lost Walker, Durzi, Vilardi, Iafallo, and Kupari all in a matter of a couple years, and now Roy is out the door next. Couldn't imagine losing that much depth in 2 key positions that quickly with almost nothing to show for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never count out VGK and their stupid cap circumvention antics... although I do feel that they're on the downswing now after being gifted all that talent during expansion.

But yeah, they could be in a permanent state of LTIR too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
