Description

Unless PLD is absolutely lights out the rest of the year and the playoffs, then I feel like he will have to go. The team can’t be competitive with million dollar goalies every season, young D, and instability with the lineup. Being cap strapped has hand cuffed this team way too badly.

Yeah id you want the habs to eat that contract, hes coming back for either Anderson or Gallagher, hes free with some cap retention or someone big comes back in return.

So heres a few deals for Dubois to the Habs

Dubois + Clarke for Barron

Dubois (2.5m retained) for Evans + 3rd

Dubois (1.5 retained) for Anderson + 3rd

Dubois + 2024 1st + 2025 1st for FC

Aint no way the Habs pay for that bum

Hes one of the worst contracts in the league. He either gets better on the Kings and they keep him or he continues to stink and he has a top 3 worst contract in the league

Welcome back after your long hiatus!

I disagree that this is the solution to all of our problems. To begin with, it's not unusual for a player moving to a new team to struggle for a while, even for a full season. Look, for example, at Ryan Graves, who was on my list of LhDs to go after before Blake re-signed Vladi Gavrikov. Second, you cannot accuse DuBois of playing badly despite his linemates -- he's been with second-rank players all season long. Has he spent the year between Quint Byfield and Adrian Kempe, I don't think that we would be having this discussion.

In my not-often-humble opinion, an upgrade either on DuBois's wing or in goal will carry us at least one round further in the 2025 playoffs than we will go this season.

PLD isn't going anywhere. Kings need him to bounce back to close out this season but by then his NMC kicks in. I'd like to see how he looks with an improvement in wingers before giving up completely.
