Patrik Laine had one of the best teenage NHL tenures of all-time. He scored 80 regular season goals, which is good for 3rd all-time on the teenagers list, but that all comes to an end as Laine turned 20 on Thursday. As a result of his second decade on this earth coming to an end, he had some wise words for himself โ which he always does, according to himself.
Ehlers simply got him his own company. Real nice for a player that has become one of the biggest pure scoring threats the league has seen in a while.
Either way, Laine always seems to be having the most fun. His dry sense of humour mixed in with his elite level of play make him a fan favourite in Winnipeg, and sometimes his young age really shines through.
Not only does he have fun off the ice, but heโs likely having a pretty good time on the ice as well. Laine and the Winnipeg Jets are up 3-1 in their Round 1 series against the Minnesota Wild, and theyโre not showing many signs of slowing down.
