Should the Montreal Canadiens pursue a Patrik Laine trade? What will the Habs need to give up?
The rumours that the Montreal Canadiens are interested in Patrik Laine just won’t go away, so we decided to do a crossover with Jay Forster of Locked On Blue Jackets to examine the possibilities. In our first segment, we talk about how Laine is doing now and whether Columbus has truly moved on. Our second segment is a mock trade negotiation in which we talk about what it would take to get him. Finally, in our third segment, we compare the Habs rebuild and the CBJ rebuild and talk about where both teams go from here.

Please …NO Laine to Montreal .!!! Not a fit .!! Too much baggage ..injuries..attitude …Even if they retain half his salary..NO WAY ..!! MUCH rather go after a big prospect …like 6'2" Arthur KALIYEV …210 Lbs. and only 23 yrs. old …That more what HABS need …!!
I question Laine's fit within MSL's system but mostly his fit in the city and its pressure cooker. I don't think it suits him.
Off the top of my head, BOS is a prime example of retooling. DAL is another example though they haven't won it all. DET successfully replaced its star forwards between 02 and 08 by finding gems like Datsyuk, Zetterberg and Holmstrom.
"Retool on the fly" worked for NYR & NSH
NO TRADE, Patrik Laine COUD NOT HAND THE STRESS THAT COMES WITH PLAYING IN M0NTREAL. TOO MANY TEMPTATION'S OUTSIDE THE AREA. THANKS KEVIN
Laine 🤮💩 🤮 💩
MAILBAG QUESTION: How do you see the top six taking shape for 2024-2025? More specifically, do they keep CC-Suzy-Slaf together, or spread the wealth and reunite Newhook-Dach-Slaf, which was excellent throughout preseason last year? In this case, is there anyone else they can justify playing with Cole and Nick?
Absolutely not! Laine has done nothing recently to give away top prospects for!
