Dubois

You're screwed when all that bonus money rolls over into next season and you need cap space

Look at the bonus money drop $8.9 mil from $12.94 mil to $4.04 mil. Let’s not pretend everyone is gonna hit every performance bonus either.

Damn 2 Dubois to NYR posts back to back with polarizing values. tbh its probably somewhere in the middle

That’s what I figure. It’s just eventually we’ll need cap space and roster space for our young guys so we need to be thinking of what the next 3-5 years will look like.

This return is honestly spot on. A lot of NYR fans don't want to accept that this is the value of a 22 year old 1C. I hate to lose Lundkvist but he would absolutely need to be part of the package. He projects as a potential top 2 D, top 4 at worst. Chytil is a top 9 forward and Buchnevich is a top 6 forward. And the first, well that just ups the value.

Dubois could be the final piece for the NYR, and gives them a top 6 that includes Panarin, Zibanejad, Lafreniere, Kakko, Dubois, and Kravtsov/Kreider. And despite losing Lundkvist, we still have Fox, Miller, Trouba, Lindgren, and eventually Robertson and Schneider.

I think this is probably the most accurate representation of Dubois's trade value. NYR ACGMs on this site typically want to send spare parts like B level prospects and Ryan Strome, while CBJ ACGMs are asking for Kakko, Lafreniere, or Fox lol. I think you've found the most fair package.
