This is not a trade rumor, it is not a wish we are expressing, and it is even less a prediction.

It is simply a way to illustrate how unfortunately the Pierre-Luc Dubois trance is turning into a nightmare for the Los Angeles Kings.

So, we are asking you the question.

"If the Kings call tomorrow morning, and they want so badly to get rid of Pierre-Luc Dubois's monstrous contract that they offer him to Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for Joel Armia.

Would you do it?"

We are extremely curious to see your answers.

Let's remember that a year ago, some were talking about trading Kaiden Guhle, first-round picks, and some even mentioned trading Juraj Slafkovsky for Pierre-Luc Dubois.

Most of the offers from experts in Montreal were centered around Guhle, or first-round picks or around Slaf.

Today we ask you... would you simply trade Armia for Dubois?

Armia has accumulated 16 points in 45 games this season. (11 goals)

Dubois has accumulated 26 points in 59 games this season. (13 goals)

Remember, by making this trade, Kent Hughes would be trading away a contract worth $3.4 million per year that expires next year, and he would be acquiring a huge contract worth $8.5 million per year until 2031.

Yes, it's a think-about-it. Yes, it handcuffs a GM for a very long time.

Many Kings fans are critical of Dubois's effort, and it should not be surprising if Los Angeles is already trying to get rid of him.
