We witnessed a scene that quickly went viral, live from Brossard today, as forward Patrik Laine lost his patience.

For those wondering, yes, Patrik Laine is competitive, yes, Patrik Laine wants to be nearly perfect on the ice, and yes, he always wants to win.

After a sequence where Juraj Slafkovsky scored a goal against his team, Laine let his frustration out.

Cole Caufield just made a brilliant pass to Juraj Slafkovsky, making it 4-2 for the Red team. Moments earlier, Patrik Laine, after being knocked around by Florian Xhekaj, angrily returned to the bench.

Personally, I love seeing this! I love seeing a player with emotions, and this is only a positive sign.

Check out what the excellent TVA Sports journalist Anthony Martineau had to say about Laine.

«Without his line being particularly dominant (which is normal at this stage), Patrik Laine was involved. Some nice defensive plays. Chemistry is still to be built with his linemates.»

- Anthony Martineau

In any case, it's important to remember that this is only the first day of camp.

Speaking of Patrik Laine's line, let's not forget we had a concerning scene live from Brossard involving Kirby Dach. He seems to be fine, although he was also frustrated during the sequence:

This line is currently made up of probably the three biggest offensive acquisitions by Kent Hughes (via the trade market).

The line consists of Patrik Laine (acquired in 2024 from the Columbus Blue Jackets), Alex Newhook (acquired in 2023 from the Colorado Avalanche), and Kirby Dach (acquired in 2022 from the Chicago Blackhawks). These are three players with very high potential.
