#GravGang y'all showed up in a big way! Thank you again for ALL your submissions!! On that note, what are YOUR thoughts on these mock trades from the community? And which do YOU think is the best? Let me know!!
Laine won’t be an excuse for a cap dump for other teams….Anderson, pass. Kotkaniemi, hard pass. Etc. The guys value is low but his contract is only 2 years and if the jackets retain the player has reasonable value. At 50% he is a less than a $4.5M player so why would the Jackets take on a bad contract w/5 years or more. No shot.
Habs fan here, I’ll keep Mailloux, he’s not untouchable but I think I would give him more time in the NHL to see is real value before maybe making a mistake
I really think Montreal will be a serious buyer for Laine… Maybe they do not get him, But from what they have said they want to speed up the rebuild and move some assets, They have also said they want to get bigger. The Habs have enough assets to get a player like him to speed up the rebuild while still not emptying their pool and picks… Laine at 50% or 25% retained is much much much more interesting and I think that info will lead the Habs to be more serious about Laine… Sure you can definitely argue their are a lot of risks, BUT if Laine even works out to 85% of what he is capable of that’s a REALLY solid top 6 player… The risk is high but at the same time it’s not because his deal is not long term it’s only 2 years left… At 50% retained the most I would be willing to give for Laine would be. 2024 First Round Pick #26, 2024 3rd Round Pick, Justin Barron, Filip Mesar. At 25% Retained the most I would be happy giving would be. 2024 First Round Pick #26, Justin Barron, 2024 5th Round Pick. Dvorak to make the money work. Laine As he is with no Retention. 2024 Second Round Pick, Justin Barron, Josh Anderson. You could trade Jordan Harris instead of Justin Barron but I think with Barron being a RD with some offensive potential CBJ would like him more, Personally I think Harris will be the better all around D. I just think Barron fits with CBJ more… Am I out to lunch? What would you guys change about my trades. I also Didn’t think too long about these trades either I sorta just did it off the spot so they are probably not great Mock Trades.
Honestly Patric Laine is so devisive that I would suggest doing a part two or even three. I've seen so many amazing trade ideas that there is more worth looking over, maybe even do one big teir list 🤣
@@m4t67u how much value do you think an unsigned RFA has? Unless it’s a sign and trade his value is greatly depressed as there is no guarantee he will sign with the team he’s traded too.. the 2 Russians have no value with Mikheyev needing as high as a 1st round pick to take his whole contract, Podkolzin value does cover that… to get Laine at a reduced cap hit costs extra… yes his value is lower now but he’s still a proven 30+ goal scorer playing with bums….
Thanks for putting it up & not saying that it was too crazy, especially since I think that the exchange of The $8M/year players would work out. I think that you can throw in others, especially sending Lindgren for One Of The Top DMen on The Columbus Blue Jackets. You can also throw in Picks & Prospects
Blackhawks need to reach a cap floor. They would take the full salery for 2 years. Guy is only 26. 3rd pick and maybe a lhd prospect.😮 and pair him with Bedard. He's addicted to video games. He was playing them all night long. Not a big thing. 4:37
I don’t mind the idea of Laine going to the rangers. But for trouba, Cuylle and Kakko. They rangers get Laine 50% retain and Gudbranson 25% retain. NYR may need to a 1st. But I get it. But Laine could help Z and Kreider who weren’t great 5v5. And Gud on the 3rd pair with a rotating Jones and Robertson wouldn’t be bad. With a few rookies looking to make the team next year I think cuylle would be expendable. That opens cap for the resigns they need.
John Davidson & Jeff Gorton were in The Rangers Regime when they traded for him & signed that contract, that had made GM Chris Drury not able to Sign Pavel Buchnievich, so, John Davidson might still be enamored with him. LOL
Probably goes to Utah, for an exposed selection. Horrible contract, not very good production, and one dimensional. He can score and hit. Thats about it. *Most of These Mock Trades were horrendous...what is this, NHL GM Mode on Easy.. Production won't return unless he's on a new contract, at much cheaper and a strong team has the depth to generate his production.
If we add Laine to our team, I stop cheering for the habs. He has the same reputation as PLD in the locker room, ended up being worst since his first year in the league and is a massive cry baby. No thank you.
I don’t know if Laine is a Locker room cancer. Is that what his teammates say. So he fights and argues with his teammates bringing everyone down or what does he actually do
Laine is not getting four pieces back in trade unless multiple teams/players are involved. bj's have to retain salary to make any deal happen. And laine will go for cheap, probably pick, prospect or player after the ufa scorers and scorers on the market like marner, zegras, necas, ehlers get moved as a secondary trade scoring option for teams that lost out on ufa's-scorers above. One rumour-will end up with pens and score 35-40 playing with crosby. Most of those rumours are just bad fits. Only a few teams are a fit and have the structure to take on laine's baggage. bj's aren't one of them and is where careers go to die.
Why do people think laine is worth alot? Lol even half retained i cant see them getting a star player or even a projected star back! His value is so damn low right now!
Don't take it personally everyone hates your turn pike its a pure hell on earth running smack into PA purgatory, you and the flats of PA just inspire a hate same as northdakota and the flats of montanny.... most of us only know these regions as a gruling wish this place didn't exist type drive, and the annoyance with you geography bleeds onto you condolences.
In what world is Zegras worth 2 players never mind a young right shot d man. Laine for Zegras is just Laine for PDL. 2 crappy players just traded for each other and they will both keep being cancers in any locker room they step foot in.
We dont need a tourist like laine here...we are rebuilding...he is lazy,he is a coward too.he will give a very bad example to our young players. He cost way too much.stay away from patrick laine

Blues 16th overall in this years draft and a pound of barret Jackmans dispensarys finest greens for Laine
this is my offer to you..nothing...not even the price for the liscence(godfather)

That habs three teams trade is terrible for the habs tbh

It's cool that you are making an update video.

Pattie's size is hollow, he dosn't make your team bigger.
As a habs fan no way am I doing that 3 teak trade lmao thays insane price. I'd do wpg 1st this year harris maybe add a 3rd next yesr
15:20 getting signing rights doesn’t mean Guentzel would want to sign with Winnipeg
I would assume Winnipeg would discuss that prior to trading for his signing rights.
That was my thought as well. All the rights does is give you the chance to talk to him earlier than other teams. Not much there TBH
Columbus retains 25% for 2 2nd picks and a goaltender prospect
from mtl f!ck that three way trade
That Zegras one is absolutely terrible for Columbus😭
If the no move clauses are waved. Laine and Jenner to Buffalo for Skinner, 11th overall this year.
Wtf is this lmao skinner is a bum not worth a bag of pucks 😂
Laine for Skinner one for one. Skinner has a higher cap hit for a longer time with less off ice issues and better point protection.
And skinner has the worst contract in the league keep dreaming bud
Straight up trade here . Evander Kane to Blue Jackets for Linae
I feel like Ehlers would wanna stay if Laine came back to wpg, perfetti and a 2nd for Laine 50% retained
That Anaheim trade made me laugh. Hard no from Cbj.
Laine 20% retained and Alexander Texier and a 3rd Round Pick for Kotkaniemi and Necas
Honestly Patric Laine is so devisive that I would suggest doing a part two or even three. I've seen so many amazing trade ideas that there is more worth looking over, maybe even do one big teir list 🤣
Great Video, as usual, Nathan. I hope that you included The Rangers/Jacob Trouba that I'd suggested.
5:34 well now Hronek has an 8 year contract so no way Van is moving him
Yoooo my trade got featured!
Right on, the Bluejackets need more scoring, cause cannonfire is cool
Patrik Laine to the Vancouver Canucks for Mikheyev, Podkolzin 3rd round pick
Hoglander Pettersson Laine
If you expect Laine to want to play in Winnipeg, sending Ehlers the other way isn't going to help.
Justin Barron ,first winnipeg pick 2024
lol...
Come on now, Jiricek in a top 4 role would be a nightmare...
In what world would the Jackets trade Jiricek for Zegras? Thats ridiculous
Ehlers for Laine would be terrible, they are BEST FRIENDS.
Jackets retain 8mil, Habs throw in some broken sticks
Have fun drafting somebody projected to go in the second round with your 5th overall pick haha
@@JamesMillerHockeylol you’d be wowing if you had the 5th overall pick 🤣 zip it
@@m4t67u I’m a CBJ fan and we have the 4th pick…
@@JamesMillerHockey you guys can draft the best player and still suck ass
Hronek, Mikheyev & Podkolzin for
Laine ($2.7M retained) and Erik Gudbranson 50% retained
beneath yor post it says "translate to english" even the AI knows this dosn't make sence
WAY TOO MUCH
@@m4t67u how much value do you think an unsigned RFA has?

I dont even make the deal just for Mailloux.
Then you’re dumb
Barron , Mailloux ,montreal First round pick #26
Talking about laine like he’s still good 🤣🤣

Do a marner mock trade
Keep him off the Hawks! We have enough injurt prone players.
Laine For Val
Gallagher , Barron , 26th overall for Laine
lol...

NO!!!! the Nucks don't want Linea
Josh Anderson filip.mesar and Sean Farrell for Laine.
We dont get Laine for that
big time
Not mesar and Farrell. Keep one and use picks instead
I dont think habs should get laine
@@carterhayes7240 Anderson is a negative value
You can't give a cap dump and think to get laine

the background music keeps messing with my head i keep pausing the video making sure theres no werid noises in my house.
Necas is also a rfa so i dont think the last one works
this is my offer to you..nothing...not even the price for the liscence wich i whould appreciate if u put up personally
godfather part 2
John Davidson & Jeff Gorton were in The Rangers Regime when they traded for him & signed that contract, that had made GM Chris Drury not able to Sign Pavel Buchnievich, so, John Davidson might still be enamored with him. LOL
There is NO way Columbus ever takes Dubois back. That bridge is well burned.
Add 4th to ducks trade
The human bubblehead😅😅
Jirijeck has to be a dealbreaker for CBJ
Why do these hockey pundits think Laine is worth an arm and a leg? This is just a "cover my ass" post.
Laine to Vancouver would be odd since they traded away kuzmenko
Probably goes to Utah, for an exposed selection. Horrible contract, not very good production, and one dimensional. He can score and hit. Thats about it.

If habs get laine I get the jersey with his number potential 50 goal scorers dont grow on trees
@@bibafortuna And when he becomes a locker room cancer and they trade him, you'll be stuck with the most worthless jersey in all of the NHL's history

Definitely overvaluing him 😂 if he was healthy and ready to play I would say your first video was spot on, but now it's a toss up
Columbus does not need more defense, they need goals. They have Jiricek and Mateychuk coming up in the next 1-2 years, why block them?
facts everyone digs the cannons
Yea... NJ gives up holtz and schmid. We be done there. 50% retained? You can have a 3rd round pick. We are not that desperate lmao
That trade at the end sounds like a terrible deal for the Hurricanes; hope they don't do that.
Carolina gets absolutely robbed in both of those trades. A 24th only for Necas?? What???
Marner for Laine and a prospect defenseman .
🤣 Torontans are fools but damn thats an ask
Stop shouting at me! Your parents need to save some egg cartons for your walls.
Turn your volume down
@@jeffskow6443 trust me, I did
Wtf is that Columbus Laine to Jersey deal? Zero chance...
I wouldn't trade a second-round pick for Laine nevermind a second and all those future assets...
Why do people think laine is worth alot? Lol even half retained i cant see them getting a star player or even a projected star back! His value is so damn low right now!
Damn. I live in Ohio. Guess I'm trash.
