I agree with your idea of putting Dubois at LW with Suzuki and Caufield, he would be a great fit. He and Suzuki could share faceoff duties which would be a nice bonus.
The trade is probably a fair offer but not enough for the Jets to do considering they just gave up Laine and Roslovic for Dubois. I think they would want Dvorak if they are trading a C, and MTL would probably be open to that to shed salary (Dubois will want more than he is given here, probably 8 yrs x $8M).
So maybe:
- RW Josh Anderson (5 yrs x $5.5M)
- C Christian Dvorak (3 yrs × $4.45M)
- CGY 2022 1st Round Pick (26th)
For:
- C/LW Pierre-Luc Dubois (8 yrs × $8M)
Jets fans would still probably say no, but that's wild considering the player they are trading is now demanding out of another organization and is 2 years from being a UFA.
For MTL, while it would be nice to have Dubois locked up long term... is the time really right? MTL could likely get a 1st for Anderson and a 1st for Dvorak in seperate deals and keep the CGY 1st. Maybe they sign Dubois as a UFA in two years? Or another UFA?
