dubois doesn't fit with MTL's culture

If this is the garbage MTL offers for PLD we will keep him. A cap dump, a guy who will never play in the NHL, a early to mid 2nd round pick and a early to mid 3rd round pick. Yeah no thanks. PLD has far too much upside to him to give him up for nothing.

Has this conversation not been beaten to death? Like there was literally already this post earlier today.

-PLD is very unlikely to be traded from LA

If he is, somehow the trade needs to not look like a loss for Blake if he wants to keep his job.

It also needs to address who takes a top-6 center role, because right now PLD is the Kings best option once Kopitar leaves.

I cannot imagine any scenario where I would want PLD on this team.

Way short for PLD. I don’t care what his G and A column shows.

8.5 mil x 7 more years! Enjoy!

8.5m for 7yrs on a player with far more upside than two players at 12m for 7yrs sounds better to me.
