We finally have a concrete trade offer for Patrik Laine between MTL and CBJ
Knowing that Patrik Laine has requested a trade from the Columbus Blue Jackets, here is a concrete trade offer sending him to the Montreal Canadiens.
It was the renowned Pierre LeBrun from TSN who reported this major news on Wednesday evening.
Since then, many analysts have linked Laine's name to the Canadiens, especially because Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton are reportedly looking for a big-bodied top-6 winger (a description that absolutely fits Patrik Laine).
A Concrete Trade Offer between the Montreal Canadiens and the Columbus Blue Jackets for Patrik Laine
Let's recall what we actually learned the day before yesterday.
Here is the concrete offer that has been proposed and reported by my colleagues at Marqueur.
Clearly, this is much less costly than for players like Martin Necas and Trevor Zegras, so it is definitely interesting.
I even believe that due to his $8.7 million per year salary until 2026, and his trade request, it could potentially cost even less than that.
Let's recall the Taylor Hall trade, for example.
But well, if this is the price, would you make this trade?
Patrik Laine, 26 years old, 6 feet 5 inches, and 215 pounds, has accumulated 388 points, including 204 goals, in just 480 NHL career games. That's very solid.
Here is the offer in question.
It's another option to keep in mind for the Canadiens in their quest to add offensive talent.
Stay tuned for the next two weeks.
