Of course, let's remember that Laine will play tonight against Patrick Roy's New York Islanders, marking his very first career game with the Montreal Canadiens.
We are so excited, and clearly, we're not the only ones.
Check out the amazing footage where Laine simply scored a goal during this morning's practice, yet his teammates had an overwhelmingly joyful reaction.
Clearly, everyone is genuinely excited about Patty Laine's return!
How beautiful it is to see!
You can clearly tell the atmosphere was exceptional this morning at practice.
I get the feeling the players are going to come out extremely strong tonight and have an incredible start to the game.
What's your prediction for tonight?
Imagine if Patrik Laine scores! It would be absolutely incredible and magical to witness the crowd's reaction.
Laine, 26 years old, is a 6 foot 4, 208-pound forward.
The second overall pick by the Winnipeg Jets in 2016 has amassed 388 points (204 goals) in 480 career games in the NHL.
At a press conference earlier today, Laine expressed how extremely excited he is and how eager he is to step onto the ice tonight.
He even admitted struggling to fall asleep last night and barely slept at all because of his excitement.
More details to come.
A quick reminder of the lines before we wrap up:
Enjoy the game!
