Why would Columbus trade back for Anderson?? Let alone give away Laine?

Make it Armia and a 2nd. Armia has no value as a pending UFA and is there strictly for cap reasons

Chicago picked up Andrew Shaw after trading him away. Obviously Columbus is not the same without Anderson.

you can’t just compare a trade like this to a trade with a 3rd liner. First of all they ask for more with Laine, second, I just don’t think Kekkelainen’s that type of guy to go back on trading someone. Also Anderson was injured most of the time so it’s hard to make that type of claim.

We were literally without him for most of last season and were fine. I love the guy but he isnt the cause for our struggles.

Columbus can't keep any star player Anderson is not a star but a good power forward locked up for six more years.
