Opposite view: Eichel just got better with the Hall trade. Laine (what, ONE year ago??) was in the discussion of next Rocket Richard candidates. These guys are projected to improve over next several years. Yeah it’s a blockbuster, but I do this one.

12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

Keller, Doughty, Verhaeghe, ErikssonEk

I agree with the Doc's clear medical opinion here. Matthews and Eichel are already close in terms of talent. With real pieces around him, Eichel will only get better.
Laine I definitely like more long term over Hamilton. Whether it's in Winnipeg or somewhere else, Laine is right up there in the Rocket Richard talks year to year.
I'd do it. You've got lots of D depth and I see Laine as an upgrade to your RW.
I still see Eichel and Matthews as a push.
Fair trade for both. It's your depth on the backend that is pushing me to say yes.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
My first reaction is to make the trade. You can make up for lost hits and blocks from elsewhere. Laine is way too young and talented to think that he's not going to improve significantly. Eichel and Matthews are a push, and I'd want Laine over Hamilton.
I like this deal.
I would reply accept.
Especially excited for what Eichel does this year with Hall, could be good for both of them. Then Laine gets a full year with Stastny and they rekindle the chemistry from couple seasons ago.
Eichel and Matthews are more of a push now that Eichel has Hall.
I still think I want Hamilton over Laine but agree he helps out that wing of yours.
I’m likely keeping my Matthews/Hamilton but wouldn’t fault you for making the move.
Easy pass for me. I don't want to be acquiring Laine for any kind of solid asset.
