If we're giving up Pulock and Beau we better get Laine
I don't agree. Connor is equally as good if not better, but I do think that Laine may be the better fit for a few reasons:
1) Can play both LW/RW
2) We need more right-handed shots
3) Trotz had success with Ovechkin, he should have equal success with Laine
But don't sleep on Connor, he's a beast.
That all being said, I've said this a few times about NYI-WPG trades. We are great trading partners, but only for blockbusters. I think I'd rather keep Pulock and Beau (especially Beau), but I don't know I'm torn. This is such good value and makes so much sense.
