Great convo. I wonder whether Stuart Skinner has moved himself into the “Canada’s best goalie” discussion? I’d never have said this 4 weeks ago … but look at him now.
I actually think that the Dubois trade is fantastic for the Caps. Easy to get a goalie to replace Kemper through the UFA market, and I predict that Dubois will make this contract look great. They are paying him the kind of money that Nik Ehlers will be getting, and he could be a solid top line centre in the league throughout his prime on this contract. Upside potential is amazing for the Caps. Same next 7 years of earnings as Mark Scheifle, so let's see who earns it better. Despite a really bad year, I'd say Dubois as decent potential to outplay Scheifle over the next 7 years. And for the Kings, they can go after a big hit in the UFA market, and there are some big names up this year and especially next year. Makes sense for both teams.
PLD has bailed on every team he has ever played on going back to his junior team. I wonder if he burns the Caps like he's burned every other team he's played on? No heart. Nothing.

he could have 'stanley cup champion' next to his name as well. i would agree with you that he should be part of the conversation.

Thanks for weighing in!
I guess Dubois’s mmc (must move clause) kicked in after only 1 year!
the jokes certainly have been flying today
