Back to Wpg with Ehlers!
What happens in Vegas for VGK team needs to find a new player to make a cap space next season.
Canes is a no unless he comes at 25% salary. At 50% it's terrible.
Please dear God, not to Toronto. We don't need that trash player
Penguins
Not Montreal
LAINE IS GARBAGE!….. a thief and should be boycotted. Winnipeg is laughing and did the right thing! .. poor Columbus paying a sit on the coach player.
I don’t think there is any good fit until he proves himself ready and healthy. His cap hit is insane.
Why would any team want an overpriced super streaky scorer who scores in clumps…. You need goals in the spring not 15 in two weeks in mid December
Leafs. We need way more bloated contracts for forwards. Especially soft, all skill ones. The fact he can't play a 200ft game is just icing on the cake.
The first thing Laine needs to do is overcome his Fortnite addiction. Then maybe he can focus on hockey and become a useful player again for some new team.
He's useless go back 2 Finland or the ladies league might be good for him
Toronto Sports Network
Not mentioning the Habs 😅 how typical lol
trade him to Montreal for Josh Anderson or Brendan Gallagher
As a Jets fan, he's a borderline bust, and some fans here still compare him to Gretzky.
Believe it or not, going back to Winnipeg wouldn't be a bad idea, he's had success there and times have changed inside the locker room they've definitely got cap space.
Hey Frankie, don't forget Drouin goes way back with MacKinnon to his junior hockey days. Those guys had chemistry for miles. Laine should forego the money, mutually terminate the contract with Columbus, and head back to the Liiga. Win win.
To Vancouver for Hronek.
