Confirmed Trade: [CBJ/WPG] Pierre-Luc Dubois and 2022 3rd round for Patrik Laine (26% retained) and Jack Roslovic

[Spring in Fialta]

Good for Columbus. I assume they did their homework on Laine's desire to be there. Still,.with that center line, I don't think they're a threat, IMO. Hopefully they find a center sooner than later.

 

[MrNasty]

Its pretty much a trade between two players who doesnt want to be with there current team anymore.

And probably won't want to be with their new team either

 

[wintersej]

Columbus won the trade but got worse.

 

[Afterburner]

This really sucks, gonna miss Laine in the Peg

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Hehe how you feeling Jets fans? Lol

 

[BB88]

Made Winnipeg scary IMO. Think Dubois has a supreme amount of potential as a power forward in this league and will play a more consistently heavy game for the jets. Interested to see if Laine takes this as an opportunity to explode or falls off under the defensive based system.

Laine plays a physical game himself as well

& Some were dreaming of getting Werenski/Jones on top of it

 

[the paisanos guy]

One day ppl will say, wow, those CBJ fans have their finger on the pulse of the team

I thought CBJ fans kept saying they didn't want Laine for Dubois???? Seems revisionist

 

[Kiekura]

Oh boy. I wonder if all the Finnish "Jets" fans make the move to Columbus as well?

No. Heinola is there.

 

[Amadeus]

Big L for Winnipeg.

It's not terrible. They do replace Laine with a lesser talent but mkremof a sure thing than a prospect but he's not a 1st line C that Winnipeg is making him out to be.

 

[King Woodballs]

And probably won't want to be with their new team either

Jets have a better shot at signing Dubois than CBJ does with Laine. but only time will tell.

 

[HOPE]

LOL what a steal from Columbus.

 

[theslatcher]

Jesus, Winnipeg god hosed.

 

[Kranix]

I can't believe this happened. Torts is going to be so mean to Laine in the pressers.

 

[Lapa]

Good haul for PLD.

 

[Beaker]

Ooof, Laine won’t last out there. Cant wait for this situation to happen again next season.

We preferred a center, but most said a top line player would come back, so no?

 

[Seachd]

Winnipeg paid the price for a centre, but somehow I still don’t think this will work out great for Columbus.

 

[MoeTheHobo]

Oh boy. I wonder if all the Finnish "Jets" fans make the move to Columbus as well?

A lot of Finns cheer for their countrymen, what's wrong with that?

 

[DJA]

I’ll await the apologies from the “picks and prospects” posters any time now.

 

[Pens x]

It seems like Columbus bent Winnipeg over a barrel.

And hahaha Dubois, have fun in Winnipeg. Columbus suddenly doesn’t sound like a bad place, eh?

 

[pld459666]

If this is legit, kudos to all the CLB fans tnat held true to the fact that they were gonna get a good deal.

If this happens, Jarmo is a genius.

I'd also expect Torts leash is now also very short.

 

[snipes]

Wow!!

Laine and Roslovic for PLD just got the update on the app

 

[Sinkkunaattori]

as a Laine fan, that's super depressing...

 

[Artanis]

Lol at people thinking Jets get shafted. Laine clearly wanted out, and Roslovic was never going to resign there, and they get PLD for that.
Considering there's a high chance Laine walks in a couple of years anyways, I think Chevy did fine.

 

[Kranix]

I think Laine is one of the most overrated players in the league and still think this is a massive win for the Jackets.

You can't overrate his shot
