Confirmed with Link: Laine + Roslovic (Extended) to Columbus for Dubois + 3rd (Mod Warning Post #290)

Man, we give away picks like candy, and now we get a third back for a 1st in Roslo, for two years of PLD. Chevy got Armia”d.

 

[Jets 31]

Should have fired Maurice a couple of years ago and things might have played out differently

Laine could want too much money and it wouldn't matter who was coach.

 

[Hunter368]

I love it, great deal for both teams. Laine wanted out, PLD wanted out and both GM’s gave them what they wanted.

Thanks Laine & Jack, wish you guys the best.

PLD welcome to Winnipeg, we’re going to love you here.

 

[John Agar]

Well depending on PLD's signing of a contract and length...

We've got the solid 1A/1B center of the present and future that we all bitched about for years...

For sure Little is done...

Time to move on...

Let's see how they structure the lines now...

Our next thing to bitch about...

And oh... Maurice ain't no Torts'... so that's something for once in Paul's favor...

 

[AKAChip]

This is my hope too. Best we've ever looked is when we brought Stastny in and rolled 3 scoring lines.

It’s not out of the realm of possibility that Dubois gets the Hayes treatment, either. Scheifele, Lowry and Statsny are all Maurice guys.

 

[DRW204]

what if laine refuses to sign long term in CBJ?

 

[EpicGingy]

Goodbye my sweet prince.

At least your last game for us was a great one all things considered.

Gonna be a long 2 weeks to wait for PLD's debut.

PLD is an RFA after the deal, so we have him for minimum 3 years.

 

[Hunter368]

PLD might just become my new favourite Jet. This kid is going to be fun to watch. Super pumped

 

[John Agar]

Not too far down the line, we will rue the long term damage to the roster that Maurice willingly caused with horrible usage.

The only solace is that maybe, just maybe having three legit offensive centres will force Maurice to play three scoring lines. Still doubt he plays Lowry 4C minutes.

Maybe Po'Mo' will put him on Lowry's wing...

 

[Gabe Kupari]

I'm good with this.

Tells me that no other offer for Laine included anything the Jets wanted. Hfboards is all about the futures but Jets are about the now. 22 year old play driving center? Ill take it. It's basically 1 for 1 here as Roslo obviously adds very little

 

[Kiekura]

Selänne situation again

Hope not

 

[Neuf]

Welcome to Winnipeg PLD! Bring your A game and you're going to be a hero.
(Separate out my meltdown)

 

[PaperRockChamp]

If we don't want players like Laine, what exactly are we doing as a franchise?
What a joke

 

[BigZ65]

So Roslovic in the end had zero trade value.

 

[AKAChip]

Maybe Po'Mo' will put him on Lowry's wing...

You laugh but it’s legitimately not impossible.

 

[Jetabre]

Think we could have gotten more value, but it's ok I guess, makes centre a strength for us now, and we won't feel pressured to turn Perfetti into a centre anymore if he ends up better off as a winger.

 

[Artanis]

what if laine refuses to sign long term in CBJ?

That's exactly what's going to happen, and you'll be laughing.

 

[MardyBum]

Well this is Chevy's job on the line now .

 

[Daximus]

The thing is I don't see Laine signing long term in Columbus. He's not likely going to like the defensive system Torts plays. PLD has a small connection here with his dad so he might sign.

 

[Spock]

Man, we give away picks like candy, and now we get a third back for a 1st in Roslo, for two years of PLD. Chevy got Armia”d.

In two years he's a RFA.

 

[Nedarb]

Roslovic just can’t shake being a 3rw lol

 

[KingsHockey24]

The thought of Scheifele - Dubois at 1-2 is beyond exciting to me. We now have a legit, probably soon elite combo down the middle. This is what championship teams are made of. And, Dubois is a play driver. We’re a better team today with this trade, in my own opinion.

I think both Laine and Dubois will put up similar/same ballpark points, with Laine scoring more goals. But all in all I think they tap out as pretty equal. We’ll see how this post ages.

Scheifele - Dubois - Stastny - Lowry. Name a better team down the middle.

Not a fan of the trade but this is true.

LA won Cups with no elite wings but had Kopitar-Carter-Richards down the middle. That's basically what you have in Scheifele-PLD-Stastny

 

[PhilJets]

Should have fired Maurice a couple of years ago and things might have played out differently

Yup

 

[FonRiesen]

This is f***ing ridiculous. f***ing Maurice and Chevy can go f*** themselves. Bloody screwed us over just like Selanne. We just lost a future Rocket winner and face of our franchise (face it, Everyone around the league knows him, not just diehard fans but EVERYONE - major marketing and excitement factor). All for the dumbass pride of a f***ing shit nepotistic coach. f***ing shit.

Edit: I honestly never swear... Sorry, just really upset. I clearly have PTSD from the 90's... I'm also surprised shit isn't censored. Oh well.
