Although I wouldn't be shocked if we're seriously pursuing him, I agree, likely not related.

I’ve been on the Laine bandwagon, for the right price of course. He’s worth the small risk imo. At worst we flip him next year at the trade deadline.

I will get banned again soon, worry not.
Oh, so now hockey players are well paid? I thought they were barely getting by.
do you understand the diff between 9 million a year and $750000...

Not a huge fan of Laine either but he’s a top line talent and he’s been producing when healthy. Maybe Marty can work some magic with him, if not it’s just a 2 years contract. It just depends of the cost for me. But by no means am I all in on him.

I'd love to get him on the cheap, but I won't be heartbroken if we pass on him either.

I’d have zero issue overpaying w Bobby Orr Barron + 2nd / 3rd rounder

Not playing around anymore.
Everyone is asking for retention. That costs.
A first round pick will be involved in the deal I'm sure. As long as it's our later pick then I'm good but we need to dump a contract like Armia.

I’m OK moving one of the newly waiver risk D as well.

I'd rather pay a lower price without retention. We have the cap space. How course, it all depends on the price with and without retention.
