jsm7302 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Blue Jackets sign Laine to 4-year deal with $8.7M AAVhttps://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2388127 Happy to see Columbus building a good core!! Love it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 This buys one year of UFA from him, I believe? Maybe two if he meets the games played threshold? Still, solid deal for a high-skill player for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Columbus!!! Go baby!! ...and good for Laine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 If they didn’t have the shitty Voracheck contract they would be in a pretty good spot. They’ve been doing a pretty good job re-tooling after going all in a few years ago. I would low key look out for Columbus making noise soon.

Cash or Czech Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Solid deal to lock up two top line wingers. They’re over the cap though, and not enough on LTIR to cover the difference. Will be interesting to see who they ship out and what it’ll cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddious Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 I can’t even explain it but you just want to root for that organization. Kind of wish torts was still there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valriera Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 The assumption being that this is the best possible player to have with Gaudreau in maybe the whole league right now, and if that winds up being true this will be a great deal. Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of wish torts was still there. For some reason I've always been a closet semi-fan of theirs. Not sure why. I've always rooted for them when not playing the Rangers. Maybe because they pounded the shit out of Pittsburgh a few years straight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 I loved when Torts was there and the Civil War background of the team name. Now I want them to see them doing well because of JD and I love their GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think they dump Nyqvist, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash or Czech Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 How many middle-6 wingers can the Kraken accumulate and will it work? Bjorkstrand, Eberle, Schwartz, Burakovsky, McCann, Donskoi. Solid group of complementary players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
