Blue Jackets Patrick Laine brutal honest on how the season ended

The arranged marriage of Patrik Laine and the Columbus Blue Jackets seems to be on the verge of breaking up.

Laine is a pending restricted free agent who was acquired from the Winnipeg Jets in a blockbuster exchange for Pierre-Luc Dubois. According to his remarks to Finnish-language publication YLE, he hasn't had the easiest time in his new home this season.

Take a look at some of Laine's thoughts on his season with the Blue Jackets (translated from Finnish):

"I can't even stand hockey right now. [This season] was an absolutely miserable experience team-wise and personally. Only good thing is that the season is over. Everything that could've gone wrong, went wrong."

Does that sound like a guy who wants to get to the negotiation table and sign a long-term contract with his team?
