It is a combination,unfortunately Winnipeg has always been at the bottom of the list because of our winter's and taxation and smaller city. Now though you add million dollar player's whims to the list (Gaudreau, Dubois) and no trade destinations it really becomes tough for a small market team. Unfortunately greed runs it all now....

Maybe but all that is coming out is it's the Habs or bust. Why this is only coming out now? Guy had definite issues in Columbus and now this? Guy travels to Montreal draft? There is some issues with this guy and we are going to get screwed. It's almost like Dubois has this creepy man crush for the Habs.......
What a shitshow this Dubois situation has become. Wants what he wants didn't Chevy vette this guy before trading for this weirdo? Guy sounds like a child who wants what he wants. I guess he is going to sit out on us or his beloved Habs will make an offer,my hope it is over 8 million and we get 2 no 1 for us. These selfish millionaires are gonna kill small market teams...
