The news is official as Pierre LeBrun of the Athletic has revealed that the Columbus Blue Jackets are working on a trade request submitted by Finnish winger Patrik Laine as he has two years remaining on his deal.

With no postseason success and a full season since his days in Winnipeg, the man is seeking a fresh start. No known teams are officially connected to Laine just yet, but there have been mentions in the past of Montreal, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, and Anaheim.

If you’re the general manager, what is your package?

Best will be covered over the weekend as I work on my AHL Monsters recap.
