If they didn't trade for PLD I don't see them trading for laine as despite having a down year he's not gonna be cheap and cbj won't want rentals

I think if laine goes to another canadian team it's edmonton and It will be a deal where RNH (with extension) goes to columbus and laine goes to edmonton to play with mcdavid

An almost guarantee that Montreal is not looking to add Liane as they 1. Don't have cap room this year or beyond and 2. Have 5 RW signed through 2022 in Gallagher, Toffoli, Anderson, Caufield and Yelonen. Also we have Drouin on the left side.

I dont agree with the down year thing. This is who he's always been. Extremely streaky. Hes had worse streaks in winnipeg

Agreed Farrell is a good prospect, steal of 2020 draft. Norlinder could be a star. Lol thinking thats a garbage return only someone that didn't know the prospects and is a troll would say this

Habs cant fit Laine's contract. Salary cap space is an asset, that is always ignored in these trades. Laine blows up your cap. Caulfield on ELC could be everything they need, maybe not but thats the risk you take competing with 31 other clubs

So does Toffoli, Laine just does not fit in Montreal's system. Montreal prefers 2 way players not one dimensional players. We have already invested so much time teaching Drouin to be a 2 way player, I don't think the organization wants to do that again. Also if Montreal is willing to pay that for Laine why did they not do it when he was traded out of Winnipeg?

I searched for it and came across a low follower Twitter account which is running a contest to boost its follower numbers. It is basically a rumour account which probably deletes tweets when it is wrong to make it look like it has a better track record.

Kekalainen traded CBJ's #1C with three years of team control for Laine. The only way Kekalainen can move Laine and keep his job is if CBJ gets a young #1C with several years of team control or term and I can't see Laine fetching that asking price right now. It will be interesting to see how much cap space will be used for Laine's (likely 1yr) bridge deal as well as for Jones and Werenski who will be eligible for long term contract extensions this offseason.

Nothing much that would interest Columbus. Caufield or no deal.

hear me out on this one Laine to Edmonton (50%) retained for RNH (extension) whatever needs to be added to balance it do it. Laine is RFA so edmonton has full control over him and Columbus finally gets the center they need to replace PLD

Mcdavid finally gets the wing he always wanted and by doing this Draisaitl can go back on line 2 and Edmonton balances out its lines. Cause lets be real having both guys on 1 line hurts the team more than benefits as while shutting them down aint easy, if a team manages to do it often the other lines can pick up the slack.
