The trade situation around Patrik Laine continues to intensify in Jets nation.

Should the Jets acquire Patrik Laine? Let's talk about it. First off, the cost of acquisition. Columbus can ask for what they want, but this is an $8.7M player with some question marks. I imagine a deal being something like a B prospect and a pick plus Iafallo for cap reasons.

It definitely wouldn't be an easy trade for GM Kevin Cheveldayoff to pull off, but the Jets do currently have some cap space left with some tradable assets in their back pocket.
Another reason fans are calling to bring Patrik Laine back would be to increase overall ticket sales. The Jets organization is hungry for a blockbuster trade that would send shockwaves down the NHL.
Having Patrik Laine back in Winnipeg would surely create a surge of intrigued fans lining up for home games to see the Finnish star where he belongs, back home in Winnipeg.
