I think it is fair to say it comes from Dubois as what the agent says is done with the approval of the client. While the word choice may not necessarily be Dubois', Brisson is a seasoned pro and would not have done it without the green light from his client. Dubois backed up his agent in public comments, so he did not disapprove of the approach. He is paying his agent to do the dirty work.

I have heard a couple of former GMs say that what the agent says is viewed as coming from the player, which makes sense as he is the paid representative of the player.

Thread: Helping EDM bring cup to cad
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>Price is 34 years old, hasnt played at all this season and even at 50% retained his contract is awful. Added to the fact that he has been bad for years and that is just a terrible terrible gamble. Any GM, analyst or someone with common sense will agree that is a bad move and the likelyhood of price being a top goalie again is negligible.

As for chariot, he proved that he can be on the ice for 24+ mins and get absolutly hammered out there. Like hilariously so, he gets murdered in shots and chances against. He's just awful and when he doenst have a selke candidate and goalie putting up insane numbers he's exposed for what he is.
There is no consensus that it's a 1st round pick value for him, it was literally one mention by Lebrun that people have clung onto like it is gospel because they really really really want him to be worth that. I dont care what your argument is, literally all evidence points to him as being terrible.</div></div>

1- EDM are not getting Price at 50% but at 75% retention.

2- I love how you said that Price is terrible but after you explain that Chariot is only good because our goalie puts INSANE NUMBER lol.

3- Lebrun Friedman Seravalli all said that MTL will get a 1st for Chariot. But ok, JaredofLondon say hes terrible.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>well chariot is just bad and price has been so bad for like 95% of the last 3 years that montreal either missed the playoffs or would have missed them in a normal season. Hell, Koskinen has had better numbers than price 2 out of the last 3 seasons.
But sure, nonsense right?</div></div>

I can understand that moving Price at 10,5M is impossible and a bad move for any team. But I will take Price at 2,65M anyday of the week before Kosk or Smith. Any GM, analyst or someone with common sense will agree that Price can be a top goaltender again. Man even Doug Armstrong and Team Canada was giving him the #1 spot as goaltender if he was ready to play.

As of Chariot he proved that he can be on the ice for 24+min of the ice and being good. Again the consensus for him it's a 1st round pick at the deadline. So I don't really care if ur argument is : Chariot is just bad lol.
