After weeks of rumors, the second and third picks in the 2016 NHL draft were finally swapped.
One of the most prolific scoring wingers of the last four years, Winnipeg Jets left wing Patrik Laine has long been rumored to want out of Winnipeg. With seemingly disgruntled center Pierre-Luc Dubois wanting out of Columbus, a natural trade partner appeared.
The Jets sent Laine and forward Jack Roslovic to the Blue Jackets in exchange for Dubois and a third-round pick in the 2022 draft Saturday morning.
