“So, do you see Scott, the Winnipeg Jets trading Patrik Laine anywhere else in Canada?”
Answers, “No.” Friedman continues.
“Okay, so I’m with you. Now, I believe you take your best deal but I understand why Winnipeg wouldn’t want to do that. I think Patik Laine this year showed up in Winnipeg understanding that the odds were very good, speaking of gambling Justin, the odds were very good that he would be a Jet this year.
