Since the Canadiens made the major acquisition of Patrik Laine, it has become the hot topic within the team and even in the NHL.

He is quite a hockey player that many teams would have liked to have, but his salary cooled off quite a few suitors. However, the asking price is very reasonable.

Indeed, the Blue Jackets gave up a 2nd round pick in addition to the forward, in exchange for Jordan Harris. Thanks to Trevor Timmins, who is fond of the defenseman and influenced this trade.

Since his acquisition, there have been both positive and less favorable comments about Patrik Laine. This is unfortunate because he is a very good teammate, according to Mathieu Perreault.

The former Canadiens forward appeared on the La Poche Bleue podcast with Maxim Lapierre and Guillaume Latendresse and had very good things to say about the Finn.

Mathieu Perreault to @lapochebleue: «Patty (Laine) in the locker room is really a good guy, he's funny, a great teammate!»

This comes from someone who played 4 full seasons with Laine. I think we can stop spreading falsehoods.

One should not believe everything people say. Patrik Laine really seems to be a good person, and he deserves the benefit of the doubt. In any case, Kent Hughes wouldn't have made the acquisition if he wasn't a high-quality individual.

Personally, I am really looking forward to seeing him in action and I am among those who believe that Patrik Laine will bounce back in an environment like the Canadiens', where all the players are very united.
