An exceptional goal scorer who has yet to mature and completely figure things out.
Because of the 1st part you live and work on the 2nd part if you can acquire such a player.
Rarest thing in hockey is a consistent 35-40 goal scorer....and he obviously has room to grow and get more complete as a 22 year old kid. I mean people rave about how Bennett isnt that old and not finished developing as a player and this guy is almost 2 years younger than him.
It would mean JG would have to go, though that seems inevitable to me anyhow at this point, and likely as part of any deal.
Just dont think Calgary has the assets needed to get Laine though and not convinced Cheveldayoff would move him yet either.
