Lul there is a Minnesota fan who thinks Dvorak is not a 2c and is using point totals to justify his case

Got a feeling its not gonna end well for them

Dvorak is definitely a 2c, doesn’t help he’s on an awful team

Well according to this person

Point totals equate to whether or not you qualify as a 2c lul

And he used Dvorak's time in Arizona as an example saying if you get 30 points even with PP, PK time then you dont qualify as a 2c.

Heres the thing in Minnesota Dvorak playing with Kaprizov would probs get 50 points a season. Arizona has not done well offensively these past 2 years so him even getting those totals was a miracle. Heck MTL has had a lot of struggles and he has been caught up in it so of course the point totals aint great.

But hey its there loss as lets be real do you see them defeating a healthy St. Louis Blues or Colorado Avalanche. With their current Center core nope. And they aint getting anyone better with all the dead money they got thanks to Parise and Suters buyouts.

I saw this post and I'm so glad this forum exists, because ACGM is a mess right now. This is post is an example why I don't post teams with trades that much anymore, only custom teams. Mob mentality is gaining over actual logic. I can't believe @BeterChiarelli has to argue that RNH > Zuccarello.

I debated to continue my argument for why Dvorak would benefit Minnesota but yeah they seem to think as of rn they can take on a healthy Colorado come playoff time. With that center core you might get 1 win against playoff MacKinnon.

How has Dvorak been doing. Haven’t really followed the Canadiens. Is he playing like hes worth the first and second you traded for him?

I'd have deleted that thread an hour ago had it not been for one of my replies being reported. For transparency's sake I'm letting another mod handle it but keeping a close eye on the thread as a whole.

This warning goes out to everyone: please don't make it worse. I appreciate the sanity check but that thread's already beyond saving.

Lets just say he is in the mix of struggles surrounding the Habs. But with how the team has been doing I dont blame him. If he playing last year for the Canadians from the North division times probs would have 20+ points by now.

As for if a team would pay big for him. Yes and No. With his current play people may hesitate but with his deal being friendly/ good, his past play, faceoff winning %, and ability to play on pp and pk, a gm looking for a good cheap 2c may bite the bullet.

Heck if Kadri plays himself out of Colorado and they cant afford him Dvorak could be a suitable replacement

Any idea why the hell Florida took Johansson (avalanche goalie) of thr waiwers?
Just for the fun off it? Not cause of merits for sure.


There’s nothing wrong with shoring up goalie depth. Never know when you’re gonna need them.

Well they did lose Montembeault to waivers so kind of makes sense they did it as with Knight being on and off good to have a guy who can fill in should bob get hurt.

I don't like where this is going

Every league is starting to experience problems with Covid


Ahhhhhhh. The literal most annoying part is that majority of these cases are mild symptoms

It would be avoided if everyone took the vaccine ( but that's another discussion )

I agree. Definitely not the place for it. I don’t care where people stand on this issue, doesn’t change my opinion on them as a person, I just think everyone can agree on one thing. Let’s just get back to normal.

Like I am fully vaccinated. It is just very disheartening and depressing to see that even with 90%, we’re still in the same boat as last year, and that EVERYONEs still getting it. Depressing man, jt really is.
