Rozlovic is soft he could play a whole period of hockey with a dozen eggs taped to him and not break any eggs.
I like this information. You go anarchist, you go girl!

I’ve never seen anybody shoot like Liane.
...But DAMN....Liane never rushed the net, hipped the d-man out of the way and picked the spot to score.
both of these players are gems. Both teams won/lost this trade.
Rozlovic is soft he could play a whole period of hockey with a dozen eggs taped to him and not break any eggs.
So far:
Roslovic - 13gp, 4G, 8A, 12pts
Laine - 10gp, 6g, 4a, 10pts
Dubois - 3gp, 2g, 1a, 3pts
Pretty wild, all 3 players look like stars so far.

Sorry but nothing in your post is updated from what you quoted. The user you quoted posted the stats of the players with their new teams. As of today its still. Unless that is not what you meant
Roslovic - 13gp, 4G, 8A, 12pts
Laine - 10gp, 6g, 4a, 10pts
Dubois - 3gp, 2g, 1a, 3pts
The only thing I'll disagree with is that I don't think both teams GOT better, I think both teams will end up better. Columbus definitely took a step back but not just because of this trade. Losing PLD really hurt the center position and now it's a bunch of really young players trying to learn at the NHL level. I think the Jackets will be fine moving forward but do think this year, as already shown, will be very bumpy and disjointed. Many crapped on Wennberg but reality is he was a defensive gem and pretty big player for their system. Way over paid for what was expected but they miss him and PLD. Ultimately I think they got the best player in the deal (I believe Laine is an elite wing, I don't feel PLD is elite but plays a more critical role) and with what we've seen from Roslovic they will have excellent middle 6 center depth for the long run.Yeah, they are so different you can't even really compare the trade. Saw a couple goals from Laine in Columbus and said "God damn". Not many guys in the league can do what he can do. But there also aren't a lot of guys like PLD in the league either, and when he's in shape, we'll see it even more. People are going to look stupid to compare this on a week to week basis but I think both teams got better with this trade and both teams are going to be happy with what they received. It's not like Jets FO is going to be "Laine scored 40 goals, I can't believe it! Why did we trade him?". We already knew he can score, and we also knew he wanted out of here so it really doesn't matter if he has here for another year or not. Why he wanted out and how it came to that is a whole other issue on its own though! But the Jets knew Laine was gone, but have a chance to keep Dubois. Obviously they talked to his dad and his dad has had nothing but good things to say about Winnipeg, so maybe we'll luck out and get to keep him.
This thread is going to be so much fun to watch as a game by game determination of who won the trade takes place. I'm really looking forward to the day when people accept that was a pretty good hockey trade between three players that wanted out! Both sides have tons of IFs but the reality is both sides got good players.
I'll just leave it as this. So much other useless drivel in this thread it's simply not worth pursuit of correction.

It was one game and the Jets have stated that long term he will be a C. Unfortunately our coach refuses to use 3 scoring lines so we would have to play one of Stastny/Dubois/Scheifele about 6 minutes on the 4th line if one of them didn't play wing. Dubois is the most natural fit at wing for now.If I'm not mistaken the Jets played PLD at wing that last game when he racked up the 3 points. It will be interesting to see if he's actually a long term C on that team versus a wing -- which is what many "experts" projected him to be coming out of the draft.
If that ends up being the case then this trade will look a lot different from a positional value standpoint.

So, I think the CBJ got better in the long run but will have their struggles this year. We're living it right now. Short camp, no games, new players and currently no experienced centers on top 3 lines (Roslovic, Texier, Stenlund)
Gotta say, having seen the Laine fans who came in all complain about how Laine was constantly misused up there by putting him on RW instead of LW, I would find it rather amusingly ironic if PLD ends up spending the bulk of his time up there as a winger.It was one game and the Jets have stated that long term he will be a C. Unfortunately our coach refuses to use 3 scoring lines so we would have to play one of Stastny/Dubois/Scheifele about 6 minutes on the 4th line if one of them didn't play wing.

be just what that traitorous bastard deserves too

I think PLD will still be a center .
But who knows with Maurice. It worked last game ,he will probably try it again.
The trade was close because PLD was a center that brought in positional need for the Jets. That is the main point for the Jets for that trade, main point by Chevy.
But if he become a winger? Lets just say.
Laine can hibernate for 2 years. And PLD won't still have as much goals than Laine.
This year Jets need for a center is not as urgent. Jets are now actually short of top line winger. Who would have thought.
Next year Jets probably dont resign Stastny unless Copp or Lowry bolt,and he signes a friendly contract.
As per the bolded, not sure how closely you follow the Jets, PMO has stated the plan multi times publicly including before his game back. Game 1 will be on the wing to reduce the increased wear, tear & mileage that comes playing at centre. He also stated publically moving forward for a few games to ease PLD back into 2c role, him and stats will take turns playing 2C until PLD is fully healed and back in game shape after not playing for such a long time & the compacted schedule.......last thing the Jets want is to aggravate any groin injury. PMO has stated multi times publically and very clearly PLD is the Jets 2c and will be played there once fully in game shape. PMO is being very smart & careful bringing PLD back in the lineup.
"Not sure how much you follow the Jets. "
We both know maurice is like, he tells one player is on day to day and boom ...
I know what he said. But he says a lot of things that you need to really check betweem the lines.
Yeah i follow the Jets.
I named my kids after Jets players, i probably do follow them a lot.
Lmao what
