Nobody wants Dubois now. Dubois has shown his cards, all he wants is his money. He does not care about any team or city or team mate. Play a shift or two then collect his money.

Obviously not because he's with LA.
We dodged a bullet and that's what is important. Right now the Habs would be a circus with Dubois.
The fact Dubois was eventually traded to LA does not mitigate the level of hot takes. It does show the Jets preferred LA's offer though.
It does seem early on the Habs dodged a bullet.

I was a fan of the trade because we need a solid 2C. Dach/Suzuli/Dubois was a great center cord to build on.
Turned out the concerns are actually very real and very present. There will be other young centers available, none that are likely to turn into a circus.

Is this going to be the worst contract ever? * year at 8.5 with a NMC kicking in next year?
The Kings are going to be eating this one for a long time.

Fair to say, habs media is like TMZ.................there is more talk and smoke and that's how all the crazy talk happens.............a radio guy, or a blogger, in both languages, and we are off...........
What is so surprising to me is how it looked for months that Dubois was forcing his way home and then it turns out he really wanted the LA lifestyle.

It's just as likely it wss a bargaining chip...OR he knew Quebec would turn on him personally and there would be nowhere to hide.
He's now in possession of the worse contract in the NHL.

That's fair. Indeed, I'm pretty sure hockey fans of all sorts of teams operate similarly. Source: I'm a Jackets fan.

PLDonkey is sooo bad he has two threads on him.
He's been on the trade thread almost non stop for 4 years running.
Enough.
Go away.

Come wit it now!
If Dubois gets bought out i think possible good landing spot for him would be Minnesota on a 1yr or 2yr "show me" deal.
One thing Dubois understands well is how to play with Russian players. He had his mega junior year centering a line with Svechnikov and Lazarev. Then he replicated that same success playing with Panarin in Columbus.
Minnesota has Kaprizov and then the following season were probably seeing Yurov coming over who looks like he's going to be a legit NHL scoring threat. Also, next year is the last year of the Suter and Parise buyouts at the 7.3 million amount.
I think Minnesota could sell the idea of coming in on cheap one year deal to revitalize his career playing with Kaprizov who he can have success with and when the buyouts drop resign him at a higher number.
