Only a few days ago, I proposed #1 2023, Kempe, Bjornfot, Fagemo, Walker
for
Chychrun and Crouse and was laughed at. Only the Coyotes would laugh at that.
I guess few realize Crouse is no longer the 6 goal scorer he was and has 30 in his last 83 games.
He's the type of power forward the Kings could use on wing. Crouse may be the best of the 3 names
in that deal. And I know the Yotes have no reason to deal him.
The Kings have no size on wing or defense (except hockey god Edler, who is about done)

I also pointed out, that ALL the key players Dean was adding, were Canadians.
I never thought about that or have ever seen anyone else dtate that:

Richards, Carter, Williams, Stoll, Greene, Mitchell, Regher...and even players like Colin Fraser, Penner,
Duh-whight King, Jordan Nolan. All Canadians. Gabrik, was not. Not saying that you must have
more Canadians than from any other countries...it's just interesting. I think it would make for a good
interview question for Dean, if he felt Canadians would add some element he felt the Kings needed.

Chychrun was born in FL. but has Canadian heritage.

Kempe will not regress to his play from 2+ years ago, but I think we may have seen his best.
I have no issues with him, CELINE $590 tshirts and all. I just woulf not have a problem dealing
him in a good hockey trade. I fully realize he can win a game in OT and in shootouts,
can play in all situations and has speed that kills. I think he's a 25-29 goal scorer from here and
that's fine.

The scoring isn’t a problem with Kempe it’s his shit defense and just plain bad body language
 
literally not a penalty

how is that the one they call instead of the 50 interference plays we've seen all night?

A problem is the Kings have NO SIZE on WING or D. This is a real problem.
They get overmatched in physical games.

Add 2, 6'4" 220 lb, 24 and 25 year old Canadians, (one being LHD) are 1 of a few things the Kings do need.
not that they have to be Canadians, or 24 and 25 yrs old, but that is the sweet spot,
to add to the Kings 23-28 year old core. The Kings also need to replace the 32-35 yr old
leaders as well and build the 23-28 yr old core.

Granted they need more physical maturation but that’s where Byfield, Helenius, Lee, Moverare and possibly Ward come in.
We also need a younger version of Brendan Dillon… although fan favorites, Arvy and Lizotte also need to be upgraded annnnnnd of course we need a goaltender of the future and fast

Out of curiosity, where do the Kings rank on avg size/height?
Seems every unit has 2-3 guys around 5’10-ish
 
When are we going to discuss the Danault line? They’ve been getting slaughtered for weeks now.

Arvidsson turns the puck over and then couldn’t catch Aho over 150 feet. Is Aho that fast?
