I am not a DD fan and it has nothing to do with the size of my dick. People talk like 52 points is a great. That ranks him 32nd among all NHL centres. 32nd despite playing alongside the 4th highest scoring player in the NHL. His +/- is 24th amongst all centres, and even though that is not the most reliable stat, a 1st line centre on a competitive team should be better than that. And then you have the playoffs, DD has a miserable 10 points in 27 games. All of this while getting 1st line minutes and PP time.
I do NOT deny that DD should be an NHL'er. But the Montreal Canadiens and their fans should demand more from their 1st line centre. The Habs have not won a cup in 20 years! You play to win the game! Galchenyuk has the potential to be dynamic, and IMO should be playing with Max. Pleks is the shut down 2nd line centre, which only leaves the 3rd line for DD. Do I want to pay $3.5 million to a diminutive centre who would be producing considerably less without 1st line minutes and Max by his side? Nope.
And although it is not the determining factor, size does matter. Like it or not, it matters to women, and it matters in the NHL. All you need to know about managements stance on size, is that it wants more of it to compete. DD is not St.Louis or Theo Fleury we can't afford to keep him around because he is good buds with Max.
DD is fine for now. But I preffer an upgrade.
