winnipeg trades laine and little
montreal trades kotkaniemi, drouin and 2020 first round pick or juulsen
little has been an excellent leader and would be a nice 3-4 year replacement for jesperi
habs need that scorer in laine and i think ehlers will be a lot more effective playing with drouin and kotkaniemi
i also think if montreal does not want to give up jesperi they could replace with poheling and add both the first and juulsen and drouin
thoughts?

This is an interesting trade but I'm not a fan of Drouin. If the Habs could replace him with another top end player this trade could be doable and help both teams.

everyone knows it’s a good trade for both teams #jet4life

I wouldn't do it from a habs perspective.

I wouldn't do it as a habs fan. Rather keep the high potential centre than a Laine. Also not a big fan of Laine so maybe I'm biased.

Habs say no.

I have no interest in Drouin or Juulsen, but Kotkaniemi and the unprotected first is a good start for Laine. I also wouldn't be adding Little to the deal.

Montreal drafted Kotkaniemi because he is a centre. A young centre with potential to be first line. He is worth as much to the Canadiens as Laine would be. For that reason I don't see this trade happening, as Winnipeg would want more than 1 for 1.

. you do realize Drouin scored more points than Laine last year right?
On top of that, Drouin is signed to a team friendly deal.

Laine is going to ask around 9M+.
Drouin’s salary is 5.5 AAV.

Horrible, horrible trade.

Little actually makes the deal worse from Montreal POV cause it puts them in cap hell to get a player they already have plenty of players of that caliber.

No way from Habs.
Ya want a deal with Laine for Drouin, a 1st and a good prospect. ok., I think Kotkaniemi is untouchable at this point.

MTL doesn't add that much to Drouin for Laine. They're actually maybe a B+ prospect and a 2 Rd pick apart in value. Like

MTL:Drouin, Phoeling,2rd2020

Win:Laine.

Your counter offer is terrible Vb. Poehling is nice, but Drouin is blech and not in the same stratosphere value wise. No thanks.

Actually a winger with more points and half the $ other player is asking for is pretty close value wise. Liane with what he’s asking for and what Drouin is signed to is pretty close. Biased homer you are, especially if you think they aren’t in the same “stratosphere value wise”. Wow. They are much much much closer than you make it out to be.

Wow, what a convincing argument. Drouin had 3 whole points more than Laine while being 3 years older and Laine playing injured. Let's not even bring up that Laine scored more as an 18 year old than Drouin ever has. Lol. Drouin is not in Laine's stratosphere value wise. Only extremely biased posters would say otherwise.
