Absolute nonsense or elite level troll?
Elite level troll wouldn't have you questioning authenticity, you'd be too busy expending fumes out your ears.
Interesting to see Laine generally being so underrated though. Still, he's 7th in goals since entering the league, had 2 elite seasons by pretty much any metric (including 5v5 goal differential), 1 really bad season and 1 good season (19-20). He's still only 22 years old. Granted, hard to not feel disappointed about his career trajectory since 17-18, he looked a lock for perennial rocket contention, but I don't think people realize how young he still is, a lot of people seem to view him as past his prime. Which of course could be possible in case the rumored back issues are true and actually really severe or there's some other problem like that, but plenty of guys explode to another tier in his age range (22-25)
