Knew Laine had very low value but this is bit surprising even. Though no retention so that probably explains a lot.
He's now gone through a very broad recovery and rehabilitation process. Time will tell if it worked or not.
Laine has tools to be a good or even a bordering star-player. He just needs to be recognized as one. He's got severe limits in skating, defensive game and overall knowing where to be on the ice. But he has world class offensive instincts and especially as a scorer he has the tools to be a top-5 goal-scorer in the league.
I really hope he turns his career around and has a chance to play at a level he's capable of.
yet somehow when you watch his highlight reels they are full of clips where he skates away from opponents or through opponents
