Interesting. Where can I find this, please?

Patrik Laine speaks his mind about time in Columbus, was 'tired of losing'

Montreal Canadiens forward Patrik Laine said he has "no clue" what the reception will be like Monday night when he faces the Blue Jackets in Columbus for the first time since being traded during the off-season.

“Obviously, things happened, and that was kind of it for me," Laine said. “I feel like we were just doing the same thing year after year. I was tired of losing and just giving up when it’s December to start focusing on next year. I’m not going to do that. That’s frustrating as a player when you’re trying to win and some people are, you know, not like that.
“They’re a little too satisfied and too comfortable where they’re at. It wasn’t really a fit for me anymore. But here (in Montreal), it doesn’t matter if we’re winning or losing, we’re always trying our best. That’s what I felt about it (in Columbus).”

No one batted an eye when Waddell said the same thing. Stop being weird.

Laine has always rubbed me the wrong way but I think that has more to do with his cult of Finnish fanboys than the guy himself.

In any case, I'm glad he got out of that loser organization where no one cares about winning and landed himself a trade to... Montreal.

I am willing to bet this same guy applauded Carter when he Fd Columbus.

Nahh. That guy moves like a 30s tractor.

Rempe only has a future if he can figure out the game a bit like Wilson.

Did you just try and relate Rempe to a first round draft pick? Woof
