where?

What rumors?

The Jets can't afford Laine going forward and aren't in a position to give up 3 first round picks for him. What has Laine done in Columbus to increase his value so drastically? Did I miss a couple 60 goal seasons or something?

It's prediction, wouldn't really call it a rumor.

Laine complained when there was no problem to speak of. I honestly doubt they want him back he is a cancer.

Laine isn't worth that much. He has an elite shot but he's a blackhole offensively and defensively at 5v5.

#1) Jarmo Kekäläinen traded for Laine because he has been a fan of his for years and has watched him play since he was a junior in Finland. There is zero chance he trades him this soon after acquiring him.
#2) Laine left the Jets because of issues he stated existed in the dressing room between him and others… who are still on the team
#3) There is less than a zero percent chance Chevy brings Laine back to Winnipeg
#4) Laine isn’t worth that package

why?

Just for fun lol

I'd do it, very much miss Laine and they obviously miss him on the ice too.

FWIW, if he were traded to WPG, I’d be happy with that package.

And the “he’s being shopped” rumor has been running since the day CBJ traded for him. I don’t put it out of the realm of possibility, but I doubt he is actively being shopped.
