## Resource

Patrik Laine’s once-promising career is hitting a wall—free agent, barely played this season, and teams are hesitant to commit. The Islanders are offering just a tryout, not a contract, with a full roster making room tough. Former suitors like the Kings have cooled, and his old team, Montreal, isn’t bringing him back. With his future uncertain and his ice time scarce, Laine’s got to seize any chance to prove he still has something left.
