I think we found a new replacement for Greene. How about 6'5" 290 lbs J.J. Watt of the Houston Texans! Looks good!

So do you think LA would need to add?

For a young, excellent defensive winger who routinely scores 30 goals we would need to anti up. Martinez doesn't seem to be very attractive to his own coaches. I don't see other teams valuing him like we as fans seem to.
 
Martinez, on other teams in other systems? Maybe he's a better fit, maybe he'd have higher value? He might be really slick on an Eastern team that likes a D trailing into the offensive zone.
 
Boston has no need to trade Lou.

The Boston roster needs a top Center, a true number one.

Not a depth D man in A-Mart , or an aged Veteran like J-Dub.

I don't really think A-mart is their answer, but I think their main concern is on the back end.
They are good on the front end.

Kaberle is playing in the Czech elite league this season and doing just fine, and I thought he looked good and quite mobile for a 35 year old. He can still pass the puck and connect tape to tape and isn't a slug on the ice like Regehr.

As a player playing outside of North America with the NHL season already underway he has to pass through Return Waivers first before he can officially land on the Kings roster.

I believe that's how Evgeni Nabokov ended up on the Islanders after he signed a contract to play with the Detroit Red Wings.

Well if that happens we really are not any worse than where we would be now.

Bad. Ass.

On a side not, anyone who records a video in portrait, especially on the iPhone 5, needs a solid pimp slap to the jaw. Why do people do this?

Kings system definitely HAS to change I don't care what anyone says. It's too much on players, it'd too risky. It takes a **** ton out of players.

And, Bruins play a similar system, look how Inconsistent they are, how they go hot and cold.

If the Kings want their core to last longer and be more consistent, they have to change it up. It's just ******** at this point that were so Inconsistent.

Is the point of the NHL season to rack up points in the regular season, or to rack up 16 wins when the playoffs start?

Also, people that think Kaberle would be an improvement over Muzzin, please.

There's this thing called passing that Kaberle is pretty good at that Muzzin struggles with. I thought he was the best dman for the Czech today as well.
 
Kaberle is a better all around defensman than Muzzin at this point, I don't think that's really debatable. He doesn't have the same shot he once had, but his positioning and brain is so far ahead it more than makes up for it. I would worry about his durability/conditioning a bit, but he has looked good.

I think that Kaberle would be a very good option, better than making a trade (unless it was to grab a long-term guy).
 
Even if the Kings signed Kaberle i am pretty sure he would be subject to pass through waivers.

Depending on the contract it would be conceivable that he could get plucked by a rival team.

Yeah, this was pointed out elsewhere, don't remember if it was on this forum or by who--he's subject to the same waiver rule that saw Nabokov get signed by the Wings but got claimed by the Isles. It was nabokov, right?

So, odds are he's not a go.

I still think that if we sign him and he gets claimed we are no different than what we are now.

Growing pains.

I agree to some extent. Growing pains are those things that Muzzin isn't allowed to have, since some here have decided to make him their whipping boy. The Kings' breakout passing has not been that great all season long. It you want to look at the worst offenders see Regehr, Greene, Mitchell, then followed by Muzzin/Voynov and then Doughty.

But yeah, somehow the Kings should figure out a way to bring in Kaberle to replace Muzzin? :shakehead:
 
it all depends what the kings think. If they think this is a big deal He will be gone I think
