Habs acquire Noah Dobson (8x$9.5M extension)

[Krustchev]

So excited . . . about Matheson being traded.

This is a great deal but I do predict Noah will hear his fair share of boos (and negative forum ice posts) due to his numerous d-zone flubs from his high risk plays

Fans are often unkind to d-zone mistakes

Haha you’ll be bitching about Dobson by December

NHL trade grades: Noah Dobson gives big boost to Canadiens’ dynamic blue line

The draft will be so boring now

Unless your team has a top 5 pick the draft usually is pretty tedious. Most people only watch in the hope of seeing Bettman come up to the podium and say "We have a trade to announce!"

This is the shit that gets German’s juices flowing. He’s giddy!

Dobson is exactly the type of player that fans bitch about. Big offensive defensemen, highly paid, not overly physical and error prone.

Fan have a hard time accepting the trade offs inherent in a Dobson type

They want every D to be Lindstrom 2.0

Sounds like Nurse (at a similar salary). As long as Dobson's better we'll be fine.

Nurse is LHD. Premium loss.

We did well at 9.5

Nurse is also dead from the neck up.

It must be hard being the second best hockey player and 3rd best athlete in his extended family

I haven't jumped on any Islanders bandwagons long enough to notice anything bad about Dobson, but can't disagree with you on Nurse.

the fact IslanderFan is trashing Dobson means they are hurting and also means we made out like bandits

 

[MON4NHLTOR4MLB]

Watch McQueen or one of the C’s drop down to 16th lol still worth it 100%. Would be awesome to either get back into the 1st, even later in 1st or package to get a C like Malkin or someone better. Wonder if they could pry 12 or 14 for something? If their guy is there of course. No point if it’s for Lakovic or something

Arpon reads us!!! I said the same

FYI, I did tell him about this board.
