WPG says no. There's always going to be players like Necas and Hamilton to be drafted in basically every year, but a sniper like Laine is an unique talent.
After 2016, not a single player has had an impact like he has when it comes to scoring efficiency. He's TOP5, possibly even TOP3 in the entire world in that aspect, as a 21 year old. 30 goals or more in every season of his career with more or less mediocre linemates.
That's an unique skill to have. He gets his confidence back, and he's virtually unstoppable.
