How do GMs get away with this nonsense? 😂😂
The Kings ca still fleece a few teams:
– Sharks – PLD + 1st for Zadina, Granlund, Blackwood + 2nd
– Canadiens – PLD for Guhle, Newhook, Dach
– Ducks – PLD for Vatrano and Gibson
– Caps – PLD for Ovechkin.
Look, as someone who watched all 5 games of this series from start to finish, Dubois was HEAVILY shadowed by Ryan McLeod and Sam Carrick/Derek Ryan. They did a good job minimizing his impact in the games, to the point where yeah, he did look invisible at points. I remember that he was brought it to give LA a chance to win the matchup vs McDavid and Draisil as those guys would be matched up with one of Kopitar/Danault.
Blake and Robitaille need to go as well…lame management…
Is it me or do all of these hockey channel dudes sound the same
buy him out, its only 1/3 of the contract before he's 26
The Kings played so well the last couple of games. It's just the oilers are so explosive on the power play. I think overall the Kings looked good, I'm really liking Kempe, and hopefully big things happen for him next year. As a long time Kings fan, I can die happy that I saw them win the Cup twice, but a third one would be nice some day. I just wish they could stop facing Edmonton in the first round. I have a rule that whoever eliminated your team has to go on to win the cup. So even though I hate them, I hope the oilers win the Cup to make it all worthwhile.
PLD to MTL for Josh Anderson
As a kings fan I'm definitely not a fan of this trade. that being said, I do think we owe him at least one more year to try and gain some confidence and prove himself. After all, it can't be easy to try and adjust to a new environment, new teammates, and a new system, ALL while being under the spotlight for a huge contract and supposed toxicity. That kind of pressure has got to be insane.
Classic Pierre-Luc DoNothing. As an Oilers fan, this makes the Nurse contract look like we signed Lidstrom to a life-long ELC deal. So it's got that going for it.
Blake has got to go! He’s made some of the worst trades ever! Not just PLD, but many before. On top of that, he negotiates HORRIBLE contracts!
There are those who think that Pierre Luc Dubois is the worst contract in the entire NHL. They must have forgotten that Jonathan Huberdeau has a 8 year contract with the Flames for $10,500,000/yr that lasts until 2031, and he only gets ~10 more points in the regular season than Pierre Luc Dubois.
Hoping Blake gets fired and a new coach and gm are brought in.
Him for crosby r u high,?
8.5m fora renta player
Pld is going to be bagging groceries in two years
Thank god Mtl didn't sign him
No GM in his right mind should want PLD. Team cancer.
He got the bag 💰 and the sun 🌞 in Los Angeles … What other city is better to be rich in? Time to coast 😎
Dumped quick ..f off..I’ll never be a kings fan again..and to those who will reply.. I’ll NEVER visit this post again soooooo. f you too 🙂
FOR YEARS, the league feasted on the calls being tilted against the Oilers.
This is the year, all that bad luck turns around for blessings.
im a pld hater but my god did i ever know the kings got fleeced on this deal from day 1…
I remember the PLD for Slafkovsky talk in the Montreal fanbase.
The Habs dodged a bullet on that one.
"He's a Bum Rock"
No one's picking that contract up that's McDavid money.
Alexandre Daigle 2.0
One of the things trending, in the Pittsburgh area, is for the Pens to trade Tristan Jarry to the Kings, because of how well Ned played this season, and the prospect of Joel Blomqvist winning a spot on the NHL club, next season.
It would make sense, for both teams, because it would give LA a damn solid goaltender who needs to play behind a solid defense, for a little while, to regain his confidence. He finished the season tied for the lead in Shutouts, but had some really rough games, mostly due to Pens' defensive breakdowns.
He’s a guy who has high natural ability, but seems to lack the passion, the drive, and it shows. Overpaid diva, scored a few zingers, few and far between.
Seems like his work ethic is lacking
Dubois and Gabrikov to Calgary for Huberdeau and Markstrom. Flames seem to love Russians lately. Funny how the two worst contacts in NHL history belong to two French players.
A team is not about one individual.. welcome to the playoffs or not.
Maybe a change in coaching will help the Kings and PLD?
Trade him to Montreal for future considerations, they need some size and grit on their hobbit team
Chicago could take him but they'd need to get some decent picks. Maybe trade for Hall too. Chicago needs more picks, Hall would be great for the Kings and Dubois' contract would help bring Chicago up to the floor
Trade Dubrois and a 5th to
pit for an aging Sidney the not so much a kid Crosby
my new hope is that pld is traded to pitt for crosby and a 5th. i would laugh so hard hearing you eat crow for the direct quote here. pleeeease.
Hope Toronto or Vancouver inspires young guns to play for Canadian team …
Trade him to the Rangers for Jonathan Quick along with a subscription to MSG sports
Pay a guy top 6 money then play him in the bottom 6, yea doesn't make sense. Good players shine with good line mates, good minutes, PP time. They get touches on the puck, their confidence starts rolling, they get in a groove. It's not this guys fault. Plus first years of big contracts are hard mentally, once that dust settles he'll do better.
I would trade Dubois and a 5th to EDM for McDavid
I was the first to yell WHAT IS BLAKE DOING…MAKING SURE THAT WE DON'T WIN ANOTHER CUP???
As an Oilers fan watching the series, I honestly forgot PLD was even playing
eh … the Oilers have Campbell. It's not that bad! PLC will tear up the minor leagues!! 🤣🤣😂😂
I can’t stand this guy. He’s an absolute plug with a horrendous attitude. Watching him lazily glide around in a playoff elimination game is infuriating and I don’t even like the Kings lol. This guy is 25 YEARS OLD lol. This is when he should be hitting his stride, but it’s clear he just does not care wherever he is. How can you be unhappy playing professional hockey in LA.
His exit interview was a PR disaster. When asked what he could do to improve for the next season, he said he planned to go to the gym to workout and do some skating drills. Huh? GM Blake got sucker punched with this deadweight so-called hockey player.
Not as ugly as our country
The contract will be fine with the cap going up. 8.5 million in 3 years will be what a second liner is getting.
