The waiting is over and it killed two birds with one stone. Pierre-Luc Dubois demanded a trade out of Columbus and Patrik Laine demanded a trade out of Winnipeg. They've now been traded for one another, plus some other pieces. The Canadiens were reportedly in on Dubois until the very end.

The Blue Jackets wanted Nick Suzuki or Phillip Danault, but Marc Bergevin would not even consider it.

The Montreal Canadiens also remain in the mix on Pierre-Luc Dubois. Winnipeg, Anaheim, Montreal it would appear at this juncture.
