Is PATRIK LAINE Returning to the WINNIPEG JETS?

The one that got away. The day they traded him I was travelling to college and screamed when I heard they traded him.

I think when Lanie went to Columbus he didn’t have a Ehlers. Columbus did try to find someone who plays like Ehlers like Johnny Gaudreau, but he didn’t play exactly like Ehlers. If Chevy does trade for Lanie reunion with Ehlers, the Jets 1st or 2rd line will be fun to watch.

Lambert,Heinola,Lambert would be sick to have on the big club

Why would the Jets need to add more. They are sending the exciting prospect. Laine is a cap dump+ he doesn’t want to play there anymore. You need to CLB to add a young asset to make us take that cap hit for two years.

That would be one of the best stories ever if you returned it’s clearly evident that Winnipeg was the best place for him.

I think he was traded because of the Cancer in the locker room, which now that Wheeler is gone maybe it could work out.

Nooooo.
Hes a looooser

Cant stand the jets always signing people because of ties to MB.

It would be cool seeing Laine back in Winnipeg but letting go of Rutger is to much

Shook his hand at Best Buy in a fanboy moment after watching in delight when Winnipeg took him number 2. So all day this would be siiiiiiick! He should be healed up all ways possible and ready to light that lamp at a 50 goal pace with Perfetti dishing. 🎉 Severson sounds great as a playoff style Dman.

If I managed the Winnipeg Jets, I would not consider trading for a player in the player assistance program, no exceptions.

Hate the idea of

Yes he would be great ? He;s a point per game player who gotten up to 44 goals in a 19 year old Laine plays better defensivly now? Never get a player with more goal scoring potential than Patrick Laine Huge trade proposal?

Um no.
Actually...

...HELL no!!!

I NEED HIM BACK.

He's not everything we need, but he'd definitely be a great addition to our roster.

Jets fumbling McGroarty is such a piss off.

I mean no one is pretending Blake Wheeler wasn’t a complete a-hole anymore. Could happen.
Columbus would need to include another player if you’re taking 7!years of Severson.and take Pionk or Schmidt back.

If he can be a two way player he will be an amazing addition

Oh no no no and no

Are you f... out of your mind you id...

They didn't specifically say Patrik is linked in those trade talks. I think if anything the Jets would trade Rutger and some sort of other asset for Zack Werenski. The Jets need defense.

I would love to see Laine back but I really don’t want McGroarty to leave.

Please 🙏

Jesus Christ--NO!!

The Jets have a habit of bringing back players they like who have left the team,
like Appleton, and Brossoit. If they believe in a guy, they will bring him back. I
think Laine will come back a more humble player, and not think of himself as the
superstar he once thought he was. If he does come back - Ehlers likely resigns,
as their good friends. May or may not work out - I'm sort of 50 - 50 on Laine, as
he was so bad defensively when he was with the Jets. Maybe he's improved, and
he has the ability to be a top sniper in the league and score 50 goals. Something
to think about.Could work out, and dump Pionks contract at the same time.

Patrick Lanie is not allowed come back jets team he is no longer available come back my city of Winnipeg Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦 no longer allowed Winnipeg jets was money carban tax we have no money because of prime minister Justin Trudeau 😢

If True North wants butts in seats, bring in Laine

I would do that trade, would probably actually fix our power play lol

It would be good for his mental health...put he'd have to produce

Regardless whether any type of deal could be made like this or not, Jets should still send McGroarty and his ego packing. Jets don't need a player with a M. Marner or E.Kane like attitude. No matter how much upside (or success) a player has, he still needs to fit into (and not create havoc) in a team's dressing room.
As for Patty coming back. He's surely be welcomed back with open arms by most fans.

He needs Winnipeg, as much as we need him!!!

Get this garbage out of your mind. The kid isnt even a good fit for the nhl let alone the jets.

Are you kidding me. Straight cancer in the dressing room. No room for him on the Jets.

Why not at least liane wants to play here the other guy was a waste of a draft pick not wanting to play for the jets

Just a random catch of him visiting Wpg somewhere would be crazy 😂

I’d rather the Jets sign the “Slap Chop” guy than “No Back Check” Laine.

At 8.7 mill for laine? If Columbus eats 6mill of that contract maybe.

Maybe if Columbus retains 60% of his contract

The jets aren’t getting anything of value for mcgory

I sure hope not...Huge mistake but typical Jets!!

IF Patrick can get away from the injury bug. IF Columbus retains minimum $3m salary. IF Winnipeg keeps Ehlers (Laine and Ehlers are BFF's) and IF the Jets pair Ehlers and Laine with a top center, preferably Monahan, then I would love this trade. Bringing Laine back may also encourage Ehlers to want to stay. And to all the idiots who continue to refer to him as a one trick pony, you obviously haven't been paying attention or don't really know Hockey.

Laine is adverse to backchecking.

Pionk is extremely valuable. If they traded him for Laine, Rutgar couldn't be part of that package. The Jets have a surplus of forwards, not D. They already bought out Schmitt which was stupid. Schmitt's crime is he has a personality. But as for Laine, Ehlers for Laine would be fine in my books. I'm an Ehlers fan, but he clearly needs to fly.

Chevy make the deal!

That would be the stupidest move. Laine is slow and is not a two way player. He may score but the game is faster he is one dimensional player.

Severson makes 6.25, Laine makes 8.7, so lets say 15 million. Pionk makes just under 5.875. If Winnipeg is going to take on so much salary and part with McGroarty I don't see it happening. Maybe I am wrong. As much as I see this type of deal, I can also see Patrik Laine to Winnipeg with a draft pick for future considerations or some deal that shocks Winnipeggers as to how easy it was to acquire him based on his injury history, being in player assistance, and Laine requesting a trade.

My head hates it, my heart loves it.

He would put fans in the stands.

If it's a cap dump for Columbus, then let's dump a bit back. Iafallo and Pionk for Laine. Jets retain 50% on Iafallo, which might allow CBJ to flip him at the deadline, CBJ retains 25% on Laine.

It would be another Chevy mistake
