Description

In my opinion Winnipeg will look for that balance of wanting to win now and still have a few pieces for the future out of this Laine trade. This is what I think the Habs could offer to fill both those needs. The biggest thing with this trade is that the Habs future is going to hinder a lot on the salary cap increasing, to keep Laine you need KK to take a sweet deal, Alzners contract needs to be paid to get out of town and Domi will likely have to be signed for under $8 million which isnt happening. So its a good idea but fat would need to be trimmed.

That's not even close. Add Evans and another pick and maybe the Jets accept.

Laine isn't worth 4 first round picks which is what an offer sheet would be, this is as close to that as you can get without actually giving up 4 first round picks.

No Domi. No Drouin. No premium prospect. No chance.

Laine to Montreal trades have become more numerous and annoying than Pesce to Leafs were last year. I hope the Jets sign him soon so we can end this nonsense. Lol.

Domi is an easy no for MTL

Danault is more valuable then Drouin

Primeau and Juulsen are both good prospects, not premium but future NHLers

2nd rounder could be a 2021 1st

Difference is that Laine has said some questionable things in interviews, and they have remained far apart in contract talks.
