I would be pitching Mango+Bennett+1st maybe... Probably not enough but it's a start.

I don’t even think it is remotely close. It is also a bad move asset wise as I clearly think Laine has his eyes set on a Marner, Matthews, McDavid type contract that gets into the $10M+ range.
He is not worth the assets and not worth his contract ask. We don’t need to be giving up prime assets and cap space for a guy who can’t handle a little tough love and is known to sulk.
If Columbus was contemplating flipping Laine after less than 2 weeks of having him on their roster the amount of red flags is astonishing.
