Breaking News: A trade call is being set up between the Winnipeg Jets and Columbus Blue Jackets

Well if you weren’t prepared for a Darren Dreger bomb this Saturday too bad cause here you go:

A trade call is being set up between the Winnipeg Jets and Columbus Blue Jackets to complete trade sending Laine and Roslovic to Columbus for Pierre Luc Dubois. A draft pick to the Jets May also be included.

Here is what Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet added about the deal:

Jack Roslovic has a new deal as part of all this. Laine/Roslovic for Dubois and a third.

Frank Seravalli of TSN adds this:

Believe #nhljets 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 #CBJ

other than new Roslovic deal. Of course, Dubois has next year on his contract. Laine does not.

From an analytics perspective:

Update:  Jets have made it official.
