I mean now I view Laine as an asset to CBJ more than a long term player so yes I do think many teams could target him next summer if his relationship in CBJ is rocky. Laine has said he’s open to extending there and Jarmo wants that too, so it all just depends how this year goes. I think to get laine, if he had a solid season but asked for a trade. It probably costs you what you offered for PLD.

I wouldn't go there. We have an amazing core with Caufield and Norlinder coming up. It'll cost you a lot to not only get him, but than to re-sign him.

Amazing might be a bit of a stretch.

I don't think caufield is as good as Laine. But Laine will cost way more than Caufield. Even if Caufield becomes a 35-40 goal scorer, im fine with that, because Laine will ask for 10-11 mill.

Laine’s value is going to take a hit like PLD?
