Confirmed Trade: [CBJ/WPG] P-L Dubois and '22 3rd for P. Laine (26% retained) and J. Roslovic [PART II] (MOD WARNING)

[tellermine]

Columbus got 2 players that want to play there.
Winnipeg got superb center promise who might want to play there after 2 years.... If staff is not to hard on him or city to boring?

 

[steveat]

What will CBJ's lineup look like now?

 

[VictoriaJetsFan]

PLD goes from a barren wasteland of nothingness to another barren wasteland of nothingness thats also cold.

Says a guy from New jersey.....which is some sort of paradise apparently.

 

[DFF]

Prediction:
Columbus trades Elvis merzlikins for Jesse puljujarvi. They end up with laine and pulju

Jarmo doesn't like pulju


And even he does, the oilers have to add big

 

[Shocker]

Guess Laine will never hit 80 goals and 150 points now.

At least Matthews has something generational, his nostrils.

Uhhh yeah NJ suburbs are some of the wealthiest in the country with the best public school districts. But sure if you want to take the 5 mile stretch from the Meadowlands into Penn Station and think that is what the rest of NJ is like.

 

[ItWasJustified]

Laine will be an absolute demolisher in CBJ.

Massive loss for Jets, in value.

Sure, sure. Laine will demolish the opponents with Domi(?) beside him in the middle.

Yea, he will. Domi is a decent playmaker

 

[Tahoeblue]

Agree with many of you who don't see these players with these clubs long term. Maybe they do, as I hate to see players not stay with teams that drafted them and developed them and leave small market teams. I flip flopped on this deal in my brain already several times. Roslovic could be the wildcard. Shiefele and Dubois down the middle is dangerous!! CLB obviously had to do something and they got value. Other thing to keep in mind on this deal are the financials, term, and team control. Just wow!!!

 

[tellermine]

Kekäläinen delivers once again. Not sure how well Laine and Torts will mesh, though.
It's fun to see a blockbuster trade, hasn't happened in a while.

I actually think this can be nice pair.
They are both full of fury but I think they can use it to progress.
They have talked in Phone before trade etc., (it was on Finnish media).

 

[nergish]

Kevin cheveldayoff needs to take a day off.
Garbage return for the best sniper under 24

Can anybody explain to me why this is the narrative? I would have thought Winnipeg got a lot better today.

Bro, the only good thing about New Jersey is that it's really close to interesting places that aren't New Jersey. You shouldn't be talking.

In Finnish media Kekäläinen said they have talked about long deal with Laine.

Seems both sides talked players trough before trade.

Laine wants to be in Columbus?

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

The biggest risk with acquiring Dubois is that he tops out as a mid-range #1C commanding top dollar. That type of player is basically a guarantee you won't ever sniff the Cup.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

He got it wrong Winnipeg is barron and New Jersey is the wasteland.

 

[George Clooney]

I thought the jacket were only taking a #1 center for PLD??? What happened?

 

[ItWasJustified]

Yea, he will. Domi is a decent playmaker

Absolutely. But now both of them will face the top line of every team. Not sure they're up to the task. But they're free to prove me wrong.

 

[Buffdog]

Not a lot of love in here for a 6'3 22 year old play driving centre who outscored Laine at 5v5.

Who is also about to aquire either Kyle Connor or Nik Ehlers as his left winger.

I think the Jets did well. Traded from a position of excess (talented winger) for a position of need (long term 2C - actually acquiring a 1B)

Exact opposite of CBJ

 

[HansonBro]

You think $5mil is too much

 

[SRHRangers]

If Laine signs in CBJ, all good for them. If Laine is the player he wanted the entire time, even better.

I don't agree with that because this trade could've happened two weeks ago then.

Feels like it was a nice fallback option.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Kinda happy habs did not overpay.
I find it funny that Columbus GM still got that value for a guy publicly wanting out

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Does Laine have to quarantine too or is he good to go

 

[Eggtimer]

He got it wrong Winnipeg is barron and New Jersey is the wasteland.

Why do people argue over shit like this . I’m sure there is crappy spots in each place along with very nice places that appeal to people in different ways. Stick to talking about hockey

Fare-well Laine. We will miss you and your special talent.
