Would Columbus move him? Probably, and that package is probably about right. No real interest in RHP, we've got plenty of middle- and bottom-6 forwards, maybe bump the 3rd to a 2nd to offset.
Should Columbus move him? I don't think so. He's still been excellent when in the lineup...that's just been rare. Trading him now would be selling low on a guy who can and should bounce back to be at minimum a great scoring 2nd-liner.
You're going to get a lot of "that's way too much for Laine", but anything less and we'd just keep him and look for a bounceback. If Montreal offered that in the offseason, I could see Columbus doing it just to move on and clear up a valuable roster spot.
