Trade to Montreal or Arizona for something that includes their 1st...

removes one possible offer-sheet for Matthews or Marner

Just get it done or trade him already. Rather tired of hearing about Nylander. Team is playing well and plenty to talk about other than his fabulous hair sitting out and wanting a rediculous payoff.

Glad Dubas is going over there and talking to him. Just wrap it up one way or the other already.

Bridge him for 3 years, slap him on the 3rd line, give him PP2 minutes, show me whatcha got.

That's the thing, the team is awesome without him. It puts Dubas into the position of power, the spot Nylander held before the start of the season.

Nylander is probably a little nervous at this point.

I feel like everyone with this opinion has forgotten how good he is lol. Any old damn upgrade won't inprove them more than nylander. Gotta be a top pairing guy for them to be better without nylander I think.

Edit: dman, not "damn" lol. Stupid autocorrect

I was trying to emulate some dumbass comments that people make about Dubas in a cheeky way by trying to highlight the contradictions people make in their arguments on a regular basis. *ahem max

In general, I like that Dubas is being hard-nosed in his first negotiation. Can't give everyone everything.

I'm not sure how you suckered in several people with those posts.
It was so obvious you were being facetious. You should have kept going.

MAGIC

Guess it's not a 100% outage for all customers. Teksavvy cable (they use Rogers here) is 100% down at least though.

My brothers Rogers is also working

This is all on Dubas. Dubas should have signed him as soon as he had the chance, while simultaneously getting him to take a team friendly contract. Dubas is obviously being way too soft while also being way too rigid, and subsequently not getting the job done.
- TheMussel

You do realize you just contradicted yourself directly. Your point was to say Dubas too soft and too rigid at the same time. What??

Dubas is doing exactly what he has to do here. Show the other RFAs that he won't bend over and cower to pressure. If the others are taking notes, and you can be sure they are, Matthews and Marner will have a choice to make - sign or sit.
