Columbus and Winnipeg reportedly hooked up for a blockbuster NHL trade Saturday, with the Blue Jackets dealing Pierre-Luc Dubois and a 2022 third-round draft pick to the Jets for fellow forwards Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic, who is unsigned.
More to come
Believe <a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/nhljets?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>#nhljets</a> are retaining 26% of Patrik Laine’s salary for this season, which evens out cap hits between Laine and Dubois. So no added salary for <a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/CBJ?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>#CBJ</a> other than new Roslovic deal.<br><br>Of course, Dubois has next year on his contract. Laine does not.

Patrik Laine is currently out of the Jets lineup with an upper-body injury, listed as day to day.<br><br>He will not need to quarantine coming from Canada to the U.S., is my understanding.
