Don Waddell is still working on the Patrik Laine trade, and Laine has reiterated his request to be traded from Columbus
The Blue Jackets are still trying to trade him at the time of writing, but they do not have any offers they consider worthwhile on the table right now.
Will the right offer come soon? Will Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens do what's necessary?
To be continued, but for now, everyone is waiting on this situation.
A player like Josh Anderson could be a name involved in such a trade, but one could understand Kent Hughes wanting to give him one last chance to rebound in Montreal.
