Fear is the mind-killer.

Dubois+Johnson
edit...the above deal irks me and I have regrets

Source?
Hits of the week isn't a legit source for that
Edit: from his 31 article:
"The Blue Jackets have watched Alex Galchenyuk pretty closely at times. I’m not sure if they are still interested, but they are looking for scoring"
Pretty vague...
You could say that for any team

For some reason, when I post the 31 thoughts link it posts the hits of the week video, not sure what’s going on

I’m guessing Bergevin is going to try and pry away Dubois but I don’t see Columbus being interested unless there’s an add from Montreal’s side. Although, it’s worth noting that Galchenyuk has 18 points in his last 21 games.
That being said, Dubois is younger and actually is a capable centreman, while Galchenyuk is a winger, for now. Maybe Columbus would finally let Galchenyuk play centre full time, who knows?
How do Blue Jackets fans and fellow Habs fans feel about this trade:
To MTL: Dubois, 3rd round pick
To CBJ: Galchenyuk, 1st round pick (top-10 protected, in that case, pick becomes a 2019 1st)
In my opinion, Montreal overpays slightly but I feel that kind of overpayment is required to get Columbus to be willing to move Dubois.

Why stop there? Anderson? Werenski? Jones? Bobrovsky?
Montreal needs
#1 center
#2 center
#1 right winger
#2 defenceman
#3 defenceman
If Columbus won't offer any of those things Montreal need to keep Galchenyuk

I'd do it as a Habs fan. We get a 19 year old top 6 C at entry level contract.
16 points in his last 20 games, but let's pretend he's a piece of shit at 23

Bergevin's bungling results in him becoming a UFA the same year Dubois elc expires. Not wanting to trade a young core piece for a player doesn't make said player bad.
Jenner + Milano for Galchenyuk
And please stop mentioning Dubois. He’s not going to be traded. Save yourself the disappointment.

If Habs fans believe they have a chance to trade Galchenyuk for PLD straight up guess again.
No one is saying that, but the jackets aren't going to give up a 19yo playing 1C who is one of the coaches favorites, getting playing time in all situations and has 21 pts in his last 34 games. Basically since he was put at center he's been playing on a different level. Not only that hes on his ELC for 2 more years and under the jackets control for what 4 or 5 more years?
No one is saying Galchenyuk is shit, it just makes no sense to give up a core piece that might fill a major hole the jackets needed to fill ever since Johansen was traded. With Dubi aging and Wennberg going through mental and physical problems, the jackets need a player who can produce at C. They have that right now, Galy might be able to do that but it's a risk they just don't need to take. Dubois is one of the few players producing right now. They aren't going to move him.

Bergevin sent me an offer sheet
I think 2nd, Milano and Jenner for Galchenyuk is a good deal.
