Laine at 50% retained plus a 2nd is tempting but personally I don't want to take the risk on him, doubt Columbus trades him for a 30 year old with one year left if they are retaining

Hey now, you're not hiding your MTL fandom behind a Columbus ACGM...we're not interested in handing you Johnson, unless you're giving us the quality, and we're giving you the quantity.

I don't see us trading Laine unless it's for an NHL-floor prospect that's nearly ready now, plus picks that are heavily conditioned (like, a 3rd that upgrades to a 2nd if he plays 50+ games, and upgrades to a 1st if he scores 25+ goals). Otherwise it makes more sense to keep him.

Most of the other moves I'm actually pretty okay with. It's a reasonable, sensical roster that's better than last year's, so props for that!

No on the Detroit, Nashville, NYI, and Montreal trades. Yes on the Florida trade. I would go Texier and the 5th only for Hague. That 4th can still turn into a 3rd.

The majority of it is fine but the kj trade is a non starter
