Patrik Laine<\/a> has just been confirmed.<\/p>\nHe really wants to come back to the city, and he really wants to re-sign with the Tricolore.<\/p>\n
Does Patrik Laine like Montreal?<\/p>\n
Let’s just say Truman could not have been clearer on that.<\/p>\n
Patrik Laine LOVES playing for the Montreal Canadiens and he wants to come back with the Habs next year<\/p>\n
See the excerpt in question.<\/p>\n
“I’m told that Patrik Laine REALLY loves Montreal and the Canadiens organization. I think that if I could have programmed an animation on the word REALLY, I would have done it.” – Max Truman<\/p>\n
Laine especially respects the way the Canadiens organization handles the mental health issues of some of its athletes.<\/p>\n
“Laine loves Montreal and he sees himself staying in the city after next season, the last of his lucrative contract.<\/p>\n
His girlfriend is happy in Montreal, and the 1001 rumors from the beginning of summer (Laine could sign a contract extension with the Canadiens) all come from one single place: Laine would like to stay in Montreal.”<\/p>\n
We love reading that, and we strongly recommend the full article.<\/p>\n
He also mentions the possibility of seeing Laine sign at a discount in Montreal, that’s how much he wants to stay.<\/p>\n
Of course, let’s recall that his current contract, which pays him $8.7 million per year, ends at the conclusion of the 2025-2026 season.<\/p>\n
So, this will be a case to follow, but personally, I really believe that it will all depend on his 2025-2026 season.<\/p>\n
If he has a big season, why not bring him back next year?<\/p>\n
Having a fully healthy Patrik Laine would be huge for Martin St-Louis’ group.<\/p>\n
