Laine's PP Boom Gives Hughes Kings Leverage
Kent Hughes holds all the cards with Patrik Laine's lethal power-play shot back in play after the Olympic break, and the Los Angeles Kings just stepped up as a serious suitor. Laine's $8.7 million cap hit looks like a steal for a team needing that elite trigger pull in the top nine, especially since Montreal aims to shed salary for a playoff push. Whispers from front offices suggest multiple clubs inquired pre-break, but LA's interest carries real weight with just 11 days to the deadline.
