Theres nothing😢

it should be now i updated it

IMO Montreal more than any other team has to overpay due to PLD’s strong desire to be there and unless Kekaleinen gets a big win he doesn’t give PLD what he wants.
Why I think Jarmo says no

I just want to touch on the "His value dropped because he asked for a trade." part, because it irks me when people say it without really thinking about it. I'm curious as to why you'd think it?

Here's how I look at it:

-PLD wants to be traded.
-He's under team control for 4 more years.
-He's 22.
-He has absolutely zero leverage.
-There's no rush to move him, and Jarmo has continued to show that he's probably the most underrated GM in the league.

If anything, I'd say his value has probably increased, given that there's a number of suitors out there looking to pick him up, now that they know he's available. As I said above, it's not like there's a gun to their head where they HAVE to move him, they just know that at some point, it's something that they're going to do. But, they can wait until they get the best offer available. Honestly, there's probably 15+ teams checking in on him, which is going to drive the price up. I realistically see no reason why anyone would think that Columbus would take a discount to move him at this point.

Also, from PLD's side, his best bet of being traded is to actually go out and play 100% every game (Again, since Columbus isn't likely to sell him at a discount).

i understand your point but before all the rumours starts im probably sure if someone call for dubois jarmo hang up and he wasn't on the market, this is why i'd say his value drop, he is now no more untachable and jarmo doesnt have the choice to be open to trade him. Still the value has to be there.

But that's the thing, he doesn't have to trade him. He has ZERO leverage. Patrick Laine asked for a trade 2 years ago. Will he get moved at some point? Most likely...but instead of rushing out and pulling the trigger, the team has been patient, and haven't screwed themselves by forcing something that wasn't there.

So the 4 center of MTL would be Danault Dubois KK and Suzuki. KK goes on the wing?
