Recent rumors suggest Patrik Laine could be on the move from the Columbus Blue Jackets to a long-standing Eastern Conference powerhouse.

Although the Canadiens were in the running for Laine, recent updates from league sources indicate that the Carolina Hurricanes are now poised to secure the trade.
🚨 NHL Rumor Alert! 🚨 Is Patrik Laine heading to the Carolina Hurricanes? 👇

As a Finnish player, Laine might be drawn to the Carolina Hurricanes, who already feature a number of Finnish teammates. This environment could provide him the opportunity to guide younger wingers and enhance their scoring. After struggling to reach his potential in Columbus, Laine could find renewed success with a more competitive team.
Hurricanes to do list:

Sign Jarvis to long-term deal

Sign Necas to decent/long-term deal (or trade for Ehlers)

Pursue Laine trade (possibly a package that includes Jesperi Kotkaniemi)

As soon as Laine completes his time in the NHL's Player Assistance Program, trade talks are expected to heat up considerably. During his time in the program, he is barred from engaging in any trade discussions with NHL teams. Look forward to significant news in the weeks ahead.
