Keirik Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Gotcha. I just find it really hard to fault Torts for PLD's behavior. You don't like your coach? You don't like your city? Ask for a trade, sure. Don't quit on your teammates. I just think Torts had a way to squash it a bit when PLD signed. He still wanted a trade and signed to help push a trade forward. Torts should right there have said no comment from that day forward. Don’t through gasoline on a fire that had sorta calmed down. Might be nitpicking though. PLD should just keep his mouth shut and be the hard3st working player out there. Make himself more appealing to teams interested. This now is not a good look at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it work in Dubois? favor though? Now a team isn?t giving up as much to get him, depleting the roster he?s going to. Not saying that his thought process there though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying that his thought process there though Well, it only works out in his favor if Columbus gets to a point where they dump him regardless. If they are in a thought process of waiting for what they feel his worth is, they may just let him rot until someone finally steps up with a fair offer. The fact that the organ-eye-zation hasn't reigned in Torts public comments makes me think they are willing to let PLD rot as long as necessary and not rush into anything.

ThirtyONE Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I dunno how you can dress PLD after last night, honestly. I was hoping he'd show out, put his head down and have a great year even knowing he was gonna be out of Columbus but obviously that's not the case. He'll still look good in a Rangers' jersey either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Was there ever a player traded by a team coached by Torts to a team coached by Keenan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Link: This guy? He looks incredibly easy to knock off the puck. Looks like he hasn't skated in years. Whats the big deal about him? I think ill go with Strome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 It's a solid pass from me, this guy didn't just quit on his team, he did so on the ice. That's speaks volumes to me about him. Something you just do ever do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Congrats on heading to Winnipeg. Very exciting. Only a couple hours from Grand Forks. He must feel very fortunate. Also, Laine won't last a month in Columbus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 According to multiple sources, the Winnipeg Jets? package includes two players of their own who have requested trades ? Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic (Roslovic, who is unsigned, is a Columbus native). Anaheim is believed to have significantly increased its offer. Calgary and Montreal are among the other interested parties, and there are undoubtedly more. (As I write this, it is not believed the Canadiens are willing to include Nick Suzuki, although what?s true now might not be true 10 minutes from now.) https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/blue-jackets-aggressively-pursuing-pierre-luc-dubois-trade/ Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 as much as i'd love to have him as our #2 Center the next half decade under Zibanejad i dont think giving up what will be needed to match Laine/Roslovic would be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 If they want prospect capital, there's nobody better positioned to deal that than the New York Rangers. If they don't, then yeah, we aren't going to match a package like that, but holy fuck, do we ever need a C that's even remotely difficult to play against.

The Dude Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Laine AND Roslovic? What am I missing here? Laine is an elite level scorer. If the Jets are giving him away, I'd rather the Rangers go for THIS guy. This is the guy you offer what people were offering for this cry baby jerk off.
