We have an interesting development regarding Montreal Canadiens forward Patrik Laine.

Now, for an NHL contract to be signed, it takes both sides.

That’s exactly the topic addressed by the excellent Marco D’Amico on BPM Sports.

Kent Hughes and the Canadiens would be ready to accept a contract offer with Patrik Laine, depending of course on the demands

Here’s exactly what he said on the subject:

“At the moment, I don’t think these are necessarily very deep negotiations.

But I think it’s clear there’s interest on both sides.

Of course, at $8.7 million, the salary will need to be revised.”

– Marco D’Amico

The key takeaway here is “interest on both sides.”

That means Kent Hughes and the Canadiens’ management are also interested in signing a new contract with Laine.

A strong start to the season could be very rewarding for Laine.

Around 5 to 6 million per year (as has been suggested), would you be ready to sign Patrik Laine for a few more seasons?
