If Werenski and Laine resign MTL likely win that trade, if one of them doesnt it's an over pay and if both them dont then it's a massive massive loss.

So a lot of risk for MTL

There's no freaking way that gets you both Laine and Werenski and both combined will cost you at least $18 million if not slightly more. Laine is already making $6,750,000 short term there's noway he's signing for $7,500,000 for 6 years try closer to $8,500,000 x 7 if not more same with Zach Werenski.
