Am I missing something? The trade worked out to be Laine for Dubois and Roslovic for CBJ's 3rd round pick this year and we picked Danny Zhilkin. So for now the Roslo part of the trade is uber bad as he has 34g 45a for 79pts in 129 games. Danny got some catching up to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strength down the middle is what good teams strive to have. blue_gold_84 and JCon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of tough to do a trade when you have non-performing assets that have to be moved versus having them performing.

bb1 Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 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... Stickem and FrostyWinnipeg 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have to be a crazy high number for the Jets not to match. And he won't want it to be a long term contract to get locked into Winnipeg that long if the Jets do match. The Jets will be under cap pressure with the other signings they have to make, but the Canadians don't have a lot of cap space either. bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomberforlife Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I’m taking Nick Suzuki or nothing. Montreal has no other forwards we need. Perfetti should be able to contribute a lot more this year as well. bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think they talked to his dad, a coach with the Moose, prior to the trade? PLD talked to his dad a lot prior to coming here to find out about the city & organization and he was excited to come here. So if the city and organization aren't the problem, maybe the locker room is a bad as speculation would have it? captaincanuck12 and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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....... Edited July 18, 2022 by bb1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was obviously discussions going on beforehand if PLD went to the draft, expecting a deal to be done. I agree bailing on two consecutive teams is not a good look on him though. bb1 and Stickem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyWinnipeg Posted July 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 Suzuki okay but a first round pick in 23 is also good. I still see MTL as a bad team. Plus a MTL offer sheet win would free up 6m for Kadri 😝 bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 We better get something for Dubois or the Columbus trade looks like a hosing of great proportions ....Anything less than Suzuki and a high pick would be viewed as a total fail by our management...What the hell is going on in our dressing room, that's not being outed, IF that's the issue with PLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue4ever Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) Maybe it’s city more than dressing room. Of all the cities to spend a winter in while playing, where do you think Winnipeg ranks? Dead last across the board every year. And the only way to rectify that is overpaying. And with a hard cap, for every overpay you have to sacrifice salary elsewhere. Maybe drafting fewer Americans and more Canadians could help keep some locals here. Maybe not.

White Out Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 I feel like we're spinning our tires. If our market is this undesirable, and we have no chance to even draft and develop a team, perhaps this was all a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that those two things are necessarily related. Being a top team for a season or two never really factored into the market being a more desirable place for players. Winnipeg consistently ranks amongst the least desirable locations for players, be it PA polling or trade lists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
