Yeah, there's been some incomplete goal scoring wingers over the last 10-15 years. Kessel, JVR, Anders Lee, Gallagher, Boeser, Skinner....but none of them were as naturally talented at scoring goals as Laine, or remotely as empty at everything else as Laine.

Yep. There is a reason the Habs got assets to take him.

He is basically unplayable 5 on 5

Comparing Laine and Ovie is absurd.

They both have a deadly shot from the hashmark... Ovie's shot is definitely better though. And Ovie can be bit of a cherry picker and floater... But Laine is definitely a bigger floater.

Besides that... Ovie is far superior in every way.

The problem with Laine is that he's half Ovi's age but he fucks the dog like a 40 year old.

it's hard to even find comps for Laine because in reality you end up with pretty shitty players. You gotta find a winger with similar production, but only on bad teams like him, and with absolutely zero other dimensions to his game physical or intangible. No speed, no grit, no defense, no leadership, no persistence, no nothing.

4-1. Fla gave up on the game after the 3rd goal.

Before the series I thought the first two games would have split, with Tampa needing a win in the 4th game away to tie the series. We've arrived here differently but still. Hoping Tampa takes the next one too.
