I think it is an interesting option to talk about. The only advantage that Winnipeg might have is that PLD's Dad is a coach on Winnipeg's farm team also located in Winnipeg, so being close to family might help. The Laine/Torts things is greatly exaggerated IMO. Laine works his butt off on every shift, so once he learns the system, there would be no problem with his work ethic.

I actually believe that torts would be so good for laine. Think of Ovie and Trotz, that’s how I view torts and laine. Laine needs a guy that can be a harda** while still giving him the opportunity. Maurice is awful, he is a suck up and he doesn’t do much. But torts would whip laine into shape, really improve his D game while still encouraging him to be a star offensively. Laine gives his all on most of his shifts, he back checks hard and is in the play. That’s all torts asks for, he just wants someone who will work their a** off.

I don't watch/follow the jets closely enough to know all that but if it was like an Ovie/Trotz relationship that would be very beneficial for both team IMO. It's nice to have an actual conversation like this on this website since most of the time it goes downhill quick

Yup trust me I know, every fan base has their nuts. But the Canadian teams get it a lot worse, so it’s nice to talk to people who accept others opinions.
