I know of two people locally who had issues with their engines. A coworker’s Kia caught fire while he was driving home. Pulled over and within 30 minutes the car was a burnt shell. 

The way I look at it, we have
Line 1a: Schiefele line
Line 1b: Dubois line
Line 2: Stastny line
Line 3: Lowry line

Not sure if this has been shared on here before or not but it was circulating at work.  The concept of the Swiss Cheese model.  Masks are one layer of defense.  They alone will not protect someone, but the more layers of defense that are followed, the more someone is protected.

Former Jet Eric Comrie with the victory for the Devils today.  Nice to see him have some personal success after getting bounced around the last 2 years.
 
 

Looooooooooong time lurker, first time poster. Had to break the silence after this trade. I think the CBJ may have got the better player(s) but the Jets team got stronger. 
Also, after listening to PLD's interview, I'd guess he is re-signing a contract way before his last year is up. He had good things to say about the organization from top to bottom and the quality of players we have here. He also mentioned how much he didn't like to play agains the Jets because of how big and fast they are and their work ethic. He said his dad had nothing but good things to say about the Jets. I have read an article about the Jets letting his dad have LOAs to watch him play at, for example, the World Juniors. I think he re-signs here.
I forgot to mention, he was a beast in the playoffs against TO last season. Laine was excellent in the post-seasons too but it is nice to know PLD ups his game when it counts.
Scheif, PLD and Lowry are three centers that will be hard to play against in the playoffs and this move gives us a better chance of being there this spring.
Maurice will probably run...
KC Scheif Wheeler
Stastny PLD Ehlers
Copper Lowry Apples
MP Harkins Lewis
I'd like to see Stastny center the 3rd and Lowry the 4th with Lewis and MP.

Interesting article in The Athletic today grading the trade.  Won't post it all, because it is behind a paywall.  But one thing that was mentioning is that Dubois was in their their recent top 100 players and Laine was not.
Here is how they grade this trade for both teams:
Custance:  Columbus:  A-  Jets:   B+
Luszcyzyn - Columbus:  B  Jets:  A-
Pronman - Columbus: B+   Jets: B-
They love Laine's goal scoring, which is a rare commodity.  But his defensive play can be a liability.   If we get Dubois from the playoffs last year, will have the centre depth with Scheifele and Dubois that teams dream about.
Trade will ultimately come down to which team can sign who in the long term and which player can thrive with their new teams.

Gotta love our size and skill at centre now. PLD won't score like Laine, but it's not like we lack the talent to score without him. 
PLD's all-around game is better than Laine's, and he plays a more important position. His fancy stats are very good too, for people who care about that. 

Emotionally this may feel like the Selanne trade, but the return here is a legit 1B centre, not some prospects and pixie dust in Kilger and Tverdovsky.  Selanne ended up in the HOF.  We will see where Mr. Laine ends up.  As was said earlier, not likely Columbus.

3rd for Roslo / Laine for Dubois if you break it down.
Was hoping a 2nd for Roslo, but meh.  Wasn't progressing with us.
C always carry more value than W in real life (vs fantasy) but I do think we should have got a higher pick or a prospect than we ended up with.
Neither team was in a great bargaining position.

That's three guys who wanted out and Rolso is not a top player at that.  Wheeler, Scheifele Connor, Morrissey, Wheeler, Hellebuyck, Byfuglien, Little have all signed long term deals. 
JCon beat me to it.  But every team will have some guys who are not happy with their situation.  Grass isn't always greener.

For this season, no, but we definitely did for next year. 
Scheif, Ehlers, Connor, Morrissey, Lowry have all been drafted and are better.

A few months ago we had one of the worst centre groups. Who's better now?
Scheif, Dubois, Statsny, and Lowry. Has every element you want. 
Perfetti won't be pushed now. He can develop like Scheif did.

I heard that they waived Nedeljkovic and were worried they would lose him, so picked up Forsberg as contingency depth.

Has to stay on the main roster or be waived to get on the taxi squad.  If he clears waivers, then he become waiver exempt for 30 days.
