Confirmed Trade: [TBL/ARI] Matt Dumba and 2025 7th round pick for 2027 5th round pick

[DistantThunderRep]

So did Arizona decide not to retain on Dumba and Zucker because the owner didn't want to?

They didn't have retention spots left, I think.

Geez how bad is this guy now? A 2027 5th and we get a 7th back? lol

You mean the NHL?

They have 2 left. Could be used at the draft.

I nearly spit out my water when I saw the 5th Yotes were getting back was in 2027.

Well, it's not negative value, but it's pretty close. It's like dumping someone on a date because you found someone else willing to pick up the bill for dinner.

The 7th in 2025 actually might be worth more than a 5th in 2027

We also probably/hopefully wouldnt have paid the extra

Really bad....defensive liability every single time he is on ice,constantly out of position + stupid penalties on top of it.

What the hell is it with the Lightening and acquiring 7th round picks in every trade they make

 

[Tom Polakis]

Not quite the 1st round pick Bill Armstrong was reportedly asking…

"reportedly"

I'm sure Armstrong knew he would get better than maybe a 4th for him.

I watched him play a few nights ago in Arizona.. in person. Not much of a player, but he's playing nothing but meaningless games. So maybe that's the issue.

He was playing meaningful games a couple months back when they were in a wild card spot, and he was the worse defenseman out there. That's saying a lot with the crew he was competing against for a spot in the lineup.

Decent odds of packing a couple to make a 4th-5th at the draft and easy to pack one or two for retention purposes/offers.

We got Ondrej Palat that one time and we've been trying to get him again ever since.

Not serious franchise continues to be not serious

 

[T REX]

Go Bolts!

 

[aylib]

I'm curious how he'd do on a good team

Tampa it ain’t

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Dumba and Duclair? Vasi is going to become the joker

Huh?

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Dumba is ass….. This probably makes us worse lmao.

 

[aylib]

he’ll fit right in

Something to look forward to: Dumbman, Dumbachev, deDumb, Dumbberg, Dumbysh, CroziDumb, DumbPerb

 

[Todd1a]

JBB all in for the cup he loves trade deadlines

 

[Beukeboom Fan]

I know Dumba's play has slipped, but has it really slipped this much where he's not even worth a 5th round DP straight up? Haven't watched enough AZ games - but that's flipping brutal.

 

[Look Up]

Dumba is ass….. This probably makes us worse lmao.

Hope he gets number 55 so every time Brisebois looks on the ice he sees Dumba 55
