Proposal: Price of Patrick Laine?

[obey86]

How do you he isn't going to be 100 point player? Would you have said Kucherov or Marchand would have been 3-5 years ago? Young players can get better you know....

I don't know that for sure, anything can happen of course. But after last season, if anything he's trending downwards, not up. And i'm not willing to pay a 100 point player price for a 60 point player who may or may not become much better down the road.

Yes, young players can turn into 100 point players. But much much much much more often than not, they don't (obviously).

I don't want him making more while doing much less than Larkin.
