People literally offered it on the board every day for every quality player when we had price and halak prior to the halak tradeI have always read this on HF but I don't know much about the backstory surrounding it, care to share?

He has more chance to land in Montreal than 90% of the teams in the league giving offersHe's not coming...
He's not coming...
He's not coming to MONTREAL!
Stop dreamin'...
Stop dreamin'...
Stop dreamin' and face the FACTS!
Unfortunately we live in a world where we don't know what's true or not anymore for sure..Yes... yes I did.
Although in my defense, I thought this was a given and no need for the smiley !
The problem is there are always teams like Ottawa (and, in other circumstances, Columbus) who don't care if a player will not re-sign there. They keep trying (see Duchene for example - who everyone knew was either Nashville or MTL-bound). CBJ isn't going to please Dubois. They're gonna trade him to whoever offers them the best return.He has more chance to land in Montreal than 90% of the teams in the league giving offers
It's pretty much useless to give an offer if the player will not re-sign there
He said a big market and that he would love to play with Habs. He actually said it.
Bergevin and Jarmo had talks.
People saying he wanted to play in NY are actually jackets reporter.
It won't happen probably but I think the habs will be in the 2-3 teams he wants to play which for a rare occasion would be true compared to other star players wanting here.
Vegas has no prospects worthy of Dubois. Kings is a big market when they win , they are bad right now and rebuilding idk why Dubois would play that. Colorado have the pieces but salary will be a problem for them after this seasonThe problem is there are always teams like Ottawa (and, in other circumstances, Columbus) who don't care if a player will not re-sign there.

That said, I do see NYR making a solid push to get him. In fact, I think he will be NY-bound when all is said and done. Otherwise, there's LAK, COL, or dare I say, VGK that may be in play.
MTL would've definitely been a real possibility, had Jarmo have any interest in Kotkaniemi and Danault. He seems to want Suzuki+ which is a definite nonstarter. If the reports are wrong, and that Jarmo does have some interest in either KK or Danault, then that would be a whole different story. If the ask was Danault++ (which I sincerely doubt), Bergevin would have already done the deal. The question now remains if Jarmo would be okay with KK+(+). Me thinks: nope: he wants Suzuki+, which will be exactly why we're not going to get him.
Zegras and Glass are pretty good.....they up against the cap anyways and I believe not too many players on the rosterVegas has no prospects worthy of Dubois.

Yeah of course the Rangers could be in the mix once again for every f***ing players traded in the market.
They always get lucky at draft and every moron ufa goes there to never win
Oh well. We''ll see.
Maybe KK would progress if he was not stuck with Armia and maybe we could stop trading him after.
This thread will not end well.
In the end time-traveler Bergevin convinced Don Waddell to trade us Kovalchuk insteadIs Marian Hossa still coming????

Jeez there isn’t too many of us still floating around from the 00’sThis
For a time it was even forbidden and an infraction to make a Ryder + Halak + 2nd offer on any trade proposal on this board lol
The gloves were real, but for Marcel, not Marian, I think that's why he never retracted the story.I know this isn't the subject of this thread but since it is referenced in the title : Mathias Brunet never retracted that story and still says the gloves were made. After all these years, I don't know what he has to gain by standing by his reporting. I mean, he already admitted he was wrong about other stories (e.g. Koivu's eye : he had reported there was no damage apart from the swelling).
