Blake wheeler at $4,125,000 gets a far better return than that
Why would Anaheim want Pierre-Luc Dubois? They already have Zegras and McTavish as their 1C and 2C respectively. They don't need an expensive PLD on top of it.
Especially if the rumors are true about him being a flight risk to a certain French speaking team.
Even if they are not, I think the dude has a major attitude problem and don't want him bringing that into the locker room in ANA. We could use an excellent to elite level power forward to pair with the Zegras Terry Line, and PLD fits the bill on paper if he is willing to play LW, but we wouldn't be giving up Strome to get him and he has to come ready to sign a not atrocious long term deal and an agreement to maintain a sports psychologist whilst on the team.
-That said, if PLD can pass the sniff test for his attitude, is willing to sign something long term up to ~8.5 mil AAV, and is willing to play left wing if it means playing on the top line with Zegras and Terry, I would be willing to consider a package involving Comtois, Ducks 2025 1st, BOS 2023 second, and a mid grade prospect. But that is a lot of ifs.
