GDT: 2019 Training Camp Info/Roster

If Prokhorkin makes it, and so do Grundstrom and JAD, we have too many forwards. Do we trade Amadio, Lewis, Carter, or Toffoli before the season starts?

Iafallo - Kopitar - Brown
Grundstrom - Prokhorkin - Kovalchuk
Kempe - Anderson-Dolan - Wagner
Clifford - Carter - Toffoli
Lewis, Amadio

I guess? Who am I missing?

I don't see Grundstrom and Dolan Anderson making it. Also no way is Carter playing 4 C.

I see it looking more like
Brown kopitar Carter
Kempe Prohorkin Kova
Iafallo Amadio Toffoli
Clifford Lewis Wagner
Blake Lizotte and Luff as extras

Porky will make it and a couple of the young players who are waiver exempt will be playing in Ontario. Lewis and Amadio are both suited for the 4th line and can move around. No sense in rushing the kids just to play 4th line minutes. Let the top 6 play top 6 and let the bottom six play bottom 6.

probable lines in Arizona



If this is any indication of what the regular season will look like, Carter may well be our fourth line center.

That may give us:

Iafallo - Kopitar - Brown
Kovalchuk - Kempe - Toffoli
Grundstrom - Amadio - Wagner
Clifford - Carter - Lewis
Prokhorkin, Lizotte
 
has anyone heard how Bouma has looked. I don't see a PTO guy pushing a guy with a contract out but always liked him

Carter was so bad last year the dude couldn't even accept a pass.

Bjornfot and Durzi is an interesting pairing. Ironically both part of the Muzzin trade put together. Wonder if this is the plan going fwd for the Kings?

Durzi is another year away and Bjornfot another 1-2 years at least... but...

a young offensive defenseman (who looked great in rookie camp!) and a stable stay at home defenseman being groomed to compliment each other would be a great thing. I don't think many teams have duo's of young players brought up together like that.

Durzi is def. going to pot some goals in the NHL and Bjornfot will be wearing a letter one day no doubt.

I think that's what Blake envisioned when he traded Muzzin at the TDL. An expiring contract for 2 potential core pieces on the blue line for years to come for the Kings. The Kings stockpiling of prospects has even impressed Pronman.

I don't see Muzzin returning to the fold, but he is a UFA. I guess anything is possible. Would be an even bigger coup for the Kings if they had all 3.
 
I am looking forward to wathing the staples center game. Will be watching Carter, Kovalchuk, Toffoli, Prokhorkin, Kaliyev and Kupari. Something to keep an eye out on every line!

As with every split squad the travelling team looks rough.
