Laine's contract expires this year, and he's currently on IR. In a Kadri/Laine swap, the Flames are the ones coming out ahead, in terms of shedding cap.
My guess is Laine walks next season and gets a few PTOs, assuming he recovers from his injury. After that he could be Europe bound. Laine doesn't seem all that interested in playing in the NHL anymore. He's made a lot of money already too.
