With time running out for Columbus, Laine's trade value is increasingly being questioned, and a transaction similar to that of Sean Monahan is being considered.
Patrik Laine, 26 years old, 6 feet 5 inches tall and 215 pounds, is a talented sniper who has accumulated 9 points in 18 games this season, 52 points in 55 games last season, and 56 points in 56 games the season before.
Despite his hefty contract, his acquisition cost should not be very high. Among the interested teams, the Seattle Kraken, the Carolina Hurricanes, and the Montreal Canadiens are often mentioned.
