<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boojets</b></div><div>again objectively he has 6 seasons in the NHL and has performed like a top 4 dmen once... in a shortened season only playing the Canadian teams. Morrissey has been in the nhl for 7 years and had one meh season and one bad season but he also had 3 good seasons before his slip. These are not the same situations. SO when you use the word objectively I'm not sure how you look at Pionk's body of work and go.. Yup definitely a top 4 dmen.</div></div>

Yeah, you can look at his work and call him a top 4 defenseman objectively. It just sounds like you have a dislike for him for whatever reason and don't want to give him the credit for where he actually rates as an NHL defenseman.

The Morrissey thing isn't a comparison of what they had accomplished, it's a comparison of how fans think. The only ones I've heard campaigning to move Pionk are the same overreactionary ones that wanted to trade Morrissey for the last two years after every down game he had.

I get it, the Jets haven't looked as good the past couple weeks, let's panic, make someone the goat and make a bad trade.

Even if you want to stick with your evalution, it makes no sense to give that player away for nothing and not replace him. How does downgrading the defense make the team better?

Sujet: Dubois sign and trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>That's not true, a few years ago Dubois said he wanted to play for Montreal.

Gaudreau was just stringing Treliving and the Flames along. Everyone knew it except Treliving. It was surprising he went to Colorado rather than Philly or New Jersey but that just proves he was lying all along about wanting to go home. Especially since Columbus only offered him a little more than NJ did and a lot less than Calgary did.

Tkachuk, virtually all those rumors were coming out of St Louis. The Dubois rumors aren't coming from Montreal they're coming from everywhere. That doesn't mean he'll wind up there but they're based on more than just a few homer writer's dreams and wishes.</div></div>

That's not true. All the rumours originated in Montreal when Dubois' agent said that Dubois wouldn't mind playing for Montreal someday when a Montreal reporter asked him directly if PLD would like to play for Montreal someday.

Well find out this summer, one way or the other.

Sujet: Dubois sign and trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>Matthew Tkachuk was a sign and trade. The Dubois situation in Winnipeg is very similar. If Dubois is willing to go to more than one team like Tkachuk was Winnipeg could wind up getting a decent haul for him too but you won't get that from Montreal if it's the only place he wants to go.</div></div>

Which is what I said. Very rare. From what we know now, the only thing PLD had said is that he wants to get to UFA, presumably to maximize earnings, he hasn't said he has any preferred destination.

So, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Montreal can certainly wait for the sure thing signing. Just like Gaudreau was a sure thing for Jersey, Tkachuk was a sure thing for St. Louis and Trouba was a guarantee to go to Detroit. It more than likely works just as well for Montreal.
