He's a center. He's also a winger. I like the versatility.

Hoffman needs to be gone yesterday.

I don't want to pay 8 million for a 60 point winger.
Wingers are the easiest thing in the NHL to get.
I only have a small amount of interest in him as a centre.

PLD salary should replace a bad contract and he's worth Nick Suzuki money all day long. Suzuki never quits yet we lose. He must be a bum too.

My concern is also the contract. 8M is a bit rich, and honestly it's a bit rich for Suzuki right now as well. The length I care a bit less as long as he's moveable but the NTC/NTM might be problematic.

Dvorak going the other way in any deal scenario makes too much sense

Not only that, Suzuki is getting too old to be part of the Suzuki core window.
Trade him.

Yup. Issue is that would drive up the price.

We're a better team with PLD, I don't think it's debatable. How many wins difference does he make? Point shares indicates that he's worth between 5 to 7 points per season.

Trade ‘em Dvorak and buy out Hoffman. That covers PLD’s cap hit.

Hoffman is gone after next year, not an issue.
He does appear to exhibit James Harden type behaviour wherein once he decides he no longer wants to be on a team, he dogfucks until he gets what he wants. Part of my admires that kind of behaviour and another part hates it.
being massively under the cap while charging full rate for tickets. sponsorships and concessions does grate on most people
yet we seem to have trouble finding big ones who can score

Not really and definitely not compared to centres

Canadiens Link To Dubois Resurfaces Following Jets Elimination
The Montreal Canadiens have been tied to Pierre-Luc Dubois for quite some time now. The current debate revolves around the concept of acquiring Dubois from the Jets this offseason or waiting until he’s an unrestricted free agent next summer. Hockey Insider Elliotte Friedman once again mentioned...

I will get banned again soon, worry not.
The Jets aren't getting Dach for PLD. They ain't getting much. First of all, we don't need him right now. We can wait for him to become a UFA and, if we decide we need him then, we can sign him without giving up assets. If Loserpeg wants to get anything for him they need to lower their expectations because even that Florida pick is off the table now. They get scraps and scrubs. Surplus assets, not anyone we actually want. They can take a 2nd rounder, Armia and Hoffman.PLD discussion starts at 6:54
The info without a doubt is being leaked by Chevaldayoff…. who’s playing the comms game. This isn’t coming from Dubois’ camp.
The fact remains that Habs are going to make an offer once the dust is settled. That’s a given. And that the Jets have no leverage. None. In ANY trade possibility with any team. There is not a scribe in this league, let alone a GM, that doesn’t know by now that Dubois wants out.

You would do so hoping that the one team he wouldn't quit on would be the Habs but then again we all hoped for that with Drouin and we all saw how well that panned out.

For franco fans, they are a PLD away from having a ti-gars who's jersey they can wear to replace the Drouin jersey they never wear anymore.
For anglo fans, they are a PLD away from having a new French whipping boy to replace Drouin.
