Laine and Gustafsson

Created by: Billy739
Team: 2019-20 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 1, 2019
Published: Sep. 1, 2019
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Gustafsson is a 1 year rental and CHI a Cap ****ed team gets a 20 goal scorer for 2.4m long term while also giving them their 2nd back and Cole Fonstad . CHI is in no position to keep EG which is why they've acquired 3 LD in the past 6 months including 2/3 signed for 3 years term.



Laine at 10.75 for the purpose of this post to avoid WPG fans nonsense. We all know in reality you're looking 2 firsts, 1 second and 1 third but let us humor them for argument sake.

Gustafsson's being brought in to buy us a year until Romanov's contracts done in Russia. Gustafsson's 27 in his final year before going UFA which is why Koekkoek,De Hann ,and Maata we're brought in to support Keith on the Left side. CHI capitalized at EDM's expense and now is going to profit from it .

Get back a 1st round pick for Petry , Tatar and Danault before they're UFA in 2 years. By then Caufield will be in MTL as will Suzuki , Brook , Juulsen ,Mete and Romanov.

Yeah cause 110 goals in your first three seasons is bad. Lmaoooo. People don’t even know what their talking about when there saying laine is bad. His in depth possession numbers while not fantastic, he had better numbers then people think.

So Jets fans are nonsensical cause they think Laine has value but then you think the Avs are giving a 1st for Lehkonen and a couple picks?

So ovechkin is bad too, if i follow your logic. Ovechkin doesn’t create takeaways, doesnt have great possession metric, score 20-25 goal a year on powerplay. Does giveaways the puck a lot. I means its the same thing here and no one will say ovi is bot good. The only thing that affect laine game is winnipeg hasn’t gave him a true opportunity with a real number one center

Dude, How many Habs fans does it take to change a light bulb?
11. One to actually change the light bulb and 10 to talk incessantly about how great the old one was!
You are not getting laine, deal with it.


Habs fans don't change light bulbs because they have invested in Led technology. They don't use candles anymore. LMAO.

According to Laine offer sheet , I wouldn't do it. Laine cannot carry a team on his shoulder. He is good and will be better but do you trade Poehling, Caufield, Kotkaniemi and let's say Sergachev for Laine. No way. We are not talking about basketball here.

They are quite comparable you means. The only thing ovechkin do than laine didn’t is hitting. Other wise ovechkin is there for one thing like laine and it’s to score goal. Before barry trotz ovechkin haven’t heard of backchecking. He always pinch is way into offence without any regard of the defensive game. Laine is similar and will fill the net at the same rate if winnipeg decided to play him with scheiffle or find him a true center to olay with him

He doesnt play with Scheifele because he would drag him down. Ovi can still drive play and does ok in possession unlike Laine who is below replacement in almost every aspect of the game.

This is the same guy who argued with me that I generalized MTL fans in a comment, and now he did the same thing. ?. Wouldn't take this guy seriously (like you shouldn’t on Cf anyway but this guy especially)

He doesn’t play with scheifele because wheeler does. Simple as that. Before the wheeler-scheifele duo was a thing in laine’s first season, he did play with scheifele (and played well as a matter of fact. You don’t split one of the best duo’s in the league to get 1 player a c who he has chemistry with (especially if that player produces regardless - albeit at a reduced rate)

If u don’t know what ur talking about don’t talk.

I think laine will finally have his C If copp proves his chemistry with Laine and steals he 2c spot.

i'll explain things slowly

Laine is worth two 1st , 2nd and 3rd. Anyone who thinks he's worth four 1st's doesnt even awknowledge their team's contradicting that unwilling to pay him the 10 million he asked for. They say something in 1 breathe and contradict that very statement in the next breathe .

MTL's 2nd is likely going to be a Mid pick 15th-20th so their 2nd round pick is going to be 30th-40th
COL who's Clearly a playoff team is looking at a 25th-31st overall pick most likely
MTL is trading Lehkonen and a 3rd to move up 15 spots in the draft

Lehkonens a 23 year old who's coming off a career high and a great player for a COL team who was **** defensively last year despite all their overwhelmiing offense. Kerfoot was the stand out defensively and COL PK Unit becomes actually dangerous instead of 25th/31 teams and a joke

Sampo Ranta's a project player who is in the NCAA and like Butcher could walk for nothing when he's done . There's no chance in him making any NHL roster for 2-3 years as he's got a ways to go on his skating to be able to play in the NHL and in the end might never be good enough . is comparable to Jake Evans and his journey through NCAA
