#nhljets and #LAKings have agreed to terms on a deal that sends No. 1 Trade Target 🎯 Pierre-Luc Dubois to LA in exchange for a package that includes Vilardi, Iafallo, Kupari and a 2nd Rd Pick.

Dubois extension is 8 years, $68 million.

First to report package:

- VANTEL

That seems like a nice haul for Winnipeg considering they had them over a barrel. Kopi, PLD and Denault up the middle is a pain in the ass team to play.

I think this puts EP40 @ 10x8 maybe even 11x8 He’s a much better player than PLD.

Points wise yes... but PLD does much more then just that.

Unfortunately I think more like 12x8, and we'll be lucky if we can keep him. He'll have that contract year bump under his belt and he can force his hand out quite easily with the Tkachuk thing and now PLD reinforcing this route as an option for players. I really think Petey was laying the groundwork for an exit that offseason when he talked about wanting to play for a winner, wherever that is.

Mismanaged again. Not all this regime's fault, just a vancity thang. Calling him pouty for a couple years probably didn't help.

It is really not that big of an issue. If he wants over 10 mil you trade him and get a very good return. It is not like we are one move away from the cup.

Instant cap relief and a sh1tload of prospects and young players in return. I don't see this as a problem TBH.

Sweeney made it sound unlikely that he could retain Orlov, Hathaway, Nosek, Bertuzzi.

- VANTEL

Orlov seems like he would be a nice pickup at the right price, but also seems like maybe the best UFA… maybe too pricey.

And he had diabetes but he had great line mates, didn't Leach have a 60 goal season or close to it one year. I loved playing the Flyers when we played Stratomatic as kids.

If Elias Pettersson scores around 100 points again you give him the 9-10 million a year, all day, every day. You don’t trade a franchise player because he wants what the market says he worth, you pay him and build around him.

If you don’t have the cap space, then be better at your job and manage your teams money better. Lots of teams are paying a franchise player that kind of money.

They have the money to re-sign him, but does it make sense to lock out the rest of your team build? If Boeser is his winger and his first pair D has Myers on it where do you think the team will end up?

I like the player personally but signing him at 10 mil and the rest of your team is the Canucks it sort of reminds me like owning a Rolls Royce and living in a tent on Hastings.

Sarangovich 1/2 a point/game playing under 14 minutes a game, 25 years old, 3rd round pick back, capspace to boot.
He might have done better at the trade deadline but I think it’s best to clean up the dressing room and not let it fester til then.
Nothing like JB!
