Description

I'd hate to see the Jets Trade Patrick Laine but with the flat cap and lesser players being had for lower level picks could Improve the Line up overall from a depth Perspective.

I genuinely don’t think there’s a huge difference between Olofsson and Laine. Laine is better but he’s not the player that’s needed in Buffalo.

Its not bad by any means. I still think that the Jets could do better for Laine though.

There is a fairly decent chance that 1st is a top 10 pick so, theres that.

Vegas isn't giving Tuch away.

Cirelli is apparently the next Bergeron so will take much more then just a 1st I'm guessing, doubt TB parts with him anyway.
