The team Patrik Laine rejected before being traded to Montreal is revealed: Renaud Lavoie has the details
TVA Sports journalist Renaud Lavoie reported a scoop a few weeks ago, stating that the Montreal Canadiens were not the only team interested in Patrik Laine.
According to what Renaud Lavoie revealed last week, Patrik Laine refused a specific trade before his move to the Montreal Canadiens:
However, the reporter couldn't reveal which team Laine directly refused to be traded to.

Considering this comes from a TVA Sports article (the network Renaud Lavoie works for), we can likely deduce that he was referring to the Minnesota Wild.
Since arriving in Montreal, Patrik Laine has never hidden his excitement about being traded to the Canadiens.
