For what the acquisition cost will be, I’d rather trade for him than Zecas
I’d do Harris and 2nd but not more
8.7 million for 2 more years is rough, but I’d be okay with it if the cost wasn’t high.
Ca sent la coupe!
He makes sense on a couple levels.
– likely won’t re-sign for same price when contract is up
– have fellow rehabbed Finn in Armia
– cost to acquire doesn’t break the build
– Hughes can check off the « Joueurs pur Laine » box
I’d give Winnipeg’s first and an uncertain prospect like Kidney or else.
Add Price’s LTIR to the deal?
He couldn’t handle two tiny Markets. You expect him to survive here?
Exactly what our top 6 needs, give up trade harris and second or Winnipegs first if the offers are competitive. I’d also be willing to toss mesar in if needed
No thank you. If it didn’t work in Peg and Lumbus it’s definitely not going to work here.
It makes sense
He has his fair share of warts, but the only reason a 26 year old 6’5″ forward with 40 goal and PPG upside is available is because he has those warts.
We know Hughes likes reclamation projects and Laine is like the final boss of reclamation projects, the upside could be massive
I’d do it for a 2nd round pick.
Slaf dach laine. Tell me that doesn’t work.
Have to remember Don Waddell is their GM and with all our history I doubt he negotiates a deal with our franchise
Maybe I am out of the loop on Laine but he screams like a problem case to me. If the price is low I guess that it is worth the risk
Can Anderson go back?
Marty knows how to put goal scorers in position to succeed.
Makes a lot more sense than Necas and Zegras.
Poor guys have played in a dysfunctional Winnipeg and then a very dysfunctional Columbus.
He is a star and a personality, he is a player for a big market. He would be an instant star in Montreal and he would not have all the pressure on him.
I think our market would do to Laine what it did to Kovalev.
Newhook-Dach-Laine reclaimation line.
Patrik Laine is signing with the Montreal Canadiens
Just doing my part for the algorithm to make this happen
Gimme Laine so we can play Slaf – Laine – Dach together and call them the 1-2-3 train.
Another FRESH start?
I want to be wrong, but this guy is not what our locker room needs, even if he might be what our scoresheet demands.
If the Habs are willing to take the full cap hit without a contract going back, I think they could be able to get him for free.

I hope Hughes puts a competitive offer on the table, Laine would be a huge acquisition.
Want him on our team so bad.
If we’re acquiring Laine, one of our bigger contracts like Andy, Gally or Dvo absolutely needs to be going the other way. I’d pay more in futures if they’re willing to take the extra year of Anderson
The main reason why this might not happen is Waddel. I think that he’s still sour on the whole offer sheet thing. With how Kotkaniemi went, I would understand if he would want to avoid a deal with Montreal in case Laine pops off and he looks foolish again. I know that this was mostly their idiot owner’s doing, but it all fell on Waddel. I’m sure that Waddel left because of the extremely intrusive owner.
It most likely comes down to cost, if it’s not crazy this makes a good deal of sense.
