Matheson, Monahan, Dach, Newhook, Laine all acquired by trade in three off seasons.Marc Bergevin: "Trading isn't easy"
Kent Hughes: Just trade Jordan freaking "useless" Harris for a 2nd pick and a 40goalscorer.
Lol
The reason we have this core is because we don't have Carey Price in nets anymore. Generational goaltender if not for his injury.
Easy there, have you ever heard of the legal term "Libel"?Injury prone with character issues. I highly doubt he's in long term plans. Laine has lengthy injury history. Then substance abuse. Bad defensively with huge contract.
I think he starts great but gone by 2nd deadline at lastest. A trade generally rejuvenates but long term Old habits die hard.
I think Habs get good 40 goal season out of him, flip him for a first. In 5 years looking back, Habs got a 2nd and 1st for Harris.
Actually it was Laine who went to the coaching staff and volunteered. Due to the team being short of centres.I am usually a player first guy so I'll admit bias but I look at the head coaches Laine has dealt with and I see his best years with the best coach (Paul Maurice) and his worst with John Tortorella and Pascal Vincent who tried to turn him into a centre. Sorry if I am not worried what Vincent has to say about him. Or if he fought with Torts.
Maurice took responsibility for Laine saying he wanted out of Winnipeg due to the bad locker room.

They were comparing Vanek to Laine yesterday on 690Feels like the Vanek for Colberg and 2nd trade but on steroide
Why Laine can skate?They were comparing Vanek to Laine yesterday on 690
High pick, 45 goals, size, mental issues they mentionedWhy Laine can skate?

I think it's safe to say some stuff went down that never saw the light of day and Hughes will ensure it never does on our side.Interesting that two different reporters asked about what Pascal Vincent said about Laine before the trade assuming they asked him when doing their research, and Hughes refused to answer either of them, just saying that they did their homework and he didn't want to get into it.
Maybe Vincent didn't say good things?
Vanek though not the best skater was very good like an older Jaromir Jagr became at cutting down the ice surface.High pick, 45 goals, size, mental issues they mentioned
And it was a very different NHL game in 2012…..I’m curious to know who they would have hired at that time. The list if candidates wasn’t big

MB was out of his element
Idiots on tSN said the same. Big Dog and whoever else was with him. I can’t believe they get paid for this.ESPN still has Harris and a 2nd for Laine: do they get the trade news on NHL 24?
We uhh.. try not to quote that guy lol..Easy there, have you ever heard of the legal term "Libel"?
"a published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation; a written defamation."

Yeah I already brought this up earlier when people were bashing Hughes for his inactivity.I would also like to point out that Monahan and Laine (and the Karlsson wheeling and dealing last year) all happened in August during the offseason. I hope fans remember that the next time HuGo aren't active in July.
