Pierre, aren’t you embarrassed?
PLD🤡🤡
Head case pld
Will say PLD is one guy who needs a whole year to warm up to a new team. He needs top minutes, PP1 and an elite winger to play with. So we’ll see if that’s available with the Caps? He draws alot of penalties when at top speed but gives up as much too. He is likely no better than a 2C in the end.
It kind of makes sence for Caps but it's scary. It's so hard to trade center who has (maybe) potential to be 1C
pld goes to the kings say's he's excited, signs for 8 years, 1 year later gets traded lol
can't wait for those ovie / dubois back checks 😂
Imagine Caps trade Laine too
Both these players didn't deserve those ridiculous contracts so it's just a toss up deal but I am surprised Caps didn't make LA retain some salary because everybody knows they were 100% done with him. Caps are doing them a HUGE favor here, so I cant see how they didn't make them retain some cap🤷♂ That Wash GM has been making a lot of head scratching moves last few seasons.
Caps have a lot of cap space and potentially couple years away from major rebuild, if PLD will work they might rebuild faster. Plus the whole Florida team in finals build out of trades like that. Hopefully he is not complete bust will see…. LA traded a lot to get him and now gave him up for nothing, and Caps got him just for cap space and kept all prospects and picks. 👍
7 years, in his prime years from age 26-32. Will get 1C playing time, and power play time. Caps needed bumper position and goal scorer. At end of day, all anybody wants is more playing time, which he absolutely will get. Strong locker room with Ovi, Carlson, Oshie and motivational coach Carbery will prove haters wrong.
Probably a decent trade for both teams
Ovie May as well retire today. This cancer is going to ruin any chance he had at that goal record.
One problem traded for another teams problem.
Still think LA won this one.
PLB is NOT going to replace Backstrom. Going all out to drag OV over the line is going to cost the Caps for at least a decade.
Honestly i see this as a terrible trade for Washington. It isn’t that Dubois can’t be good. Or maybe will get better in Washington. It’s the contract and length of the contract
Fastest I would say was the Jeff Carter trade from Philly to Columbus
Pld is a bum Winnipeg he sucked Columbus he sucked Los Angeles he sucked obviously he sucks teams are suckers to trust this overpaid bum
Hey guys, Kings management went looking for a goaltender…and came back with an over-paid forward. In other words, you went looking looking for a wealthy socialite and you came back with a hooker…seriously? At least blake won/t wear the dress this year-his last year (based on his contract)! Darcy gave us one good year, his last year in L.A.
65 point pace across 154 games over his last two seasons in Winnipeg. LA traded the bag for him and played him 3 minutes less a night for one year and then put on the shocked pikachu face when his production dropped and cut bait. That's just terrible management. I think Washington thinks 65-point Dubois is what they're getting at worst with a big opportunity in Washington and even more growth is possible because he's going to play even more than he did in Winnipeg. W for the caps, honestly. They needed a guy like this and traded no prospects, picks, or any skaters to get this guy. It's a pure offensive net-add.
PLD and Ovi on the same line going on the back check 💀☠💀
Terrible trade for Washington, big mistake.
PLD and Ovi could work.
