Laine is an ultra mega super negasonic teenage warhead non-starter. Try again if you like.

Nah common you'll love him. His bones totally aren't made of glass these days.

His bones could be made of vibranium and eww no god get it away from me cross and garlic. No thank you to infinity and beyond.

Eh I think you're falling victim to the narratives of people who don't pay attention a bit there. If not for injuries the last couple years he's an 80 point player with decent defensive ability. He's not the one dimensional player that people who stopped watching him after Winnipeg want to make him out to be and analytics support that.

Laine for Kyrou could be good for all parties, though I think you’re giving too much to St. Louis here.

In the end though doubt either team does this.

The sharks deal is interesting, I’ve done a ton of Sharks projections and it’s hard to find a spot for Bordeleau.
And we could use a RD with top 4 potential In need of a fresh start.

Leafs say yes

I've liked the idea of the Jackets targetting Bordeleau for a while. Toss another Michigan guy on the pile and hopefully he pushes Boone out of the top 9 eventually into Kuraly's spot. And yeah, I figured San Jose is a place where Boqvist might get the top 4 opportunity he has been pushed out of in Columbus.

Yea I like Bordeleau a lot but he doesn’t fit Grier or Quinn’s style. Plus with Eklund and Musty likely top 9 in the near future and both Gushchin and Bordeleau both too small to be 4th liners it comes down to which gets that last spot and C isn’t an option with Granlund Sturm Herl Couture till 25/26 then Smith and I would assume 1 of the sharks 24 1sts (please god please be Celebrini) plus Lund and Bysted who likely fit bottom 6 rolls. I just don’t see a spot for him.

And I want to see him succeed

Heh. Okay, man. Well you enjoy all of that excellence then.

Definitely would have to drop protection on that

Canucks pass. Not a fit.IMHO.

Leafs counter with peeke and your first for future considerations lol

Zero interest in Roslovic. Besides he's a UFA and will probably bolt at the end of the season and any team can get him for free. Back to Winnipeg?

I don't think SJ is looking for 5-9 179 lb Dmen, but that 2nd is nice, if the Sharks want to move on from Bords.

They have some big D-men in their system. Pulli, Shakir, Thrun, Laroque, Furlong has decent size. And I feel they'll likely take a bigger 2-way RHD at the draft. If Levshunov is available and they're picking 2 I think they definitely take him.

They might, esp. if the Pitt. and NJ picks move to 2025. Take a need and the best player.
