With rumors of Pittsburgh willing to move anyone except Sid, one wonders if Blake and Dubas have had any talks, given the fact they’ve made 2 or 3 deals.
I think with DD and Kaliyev being back in the next 1-2 months, some moves will be made. All of these defensemen; Englund, Burroughs, Jones, (not sure how long he’s out) and Moverare…then Drew coming back; then add Gav not having a contract, I think a defenseman is moved.
I think Moverare deserves a chance. He’s always solid. The Kings are now playing LHD Dvorak and Booth with the Reign and they’re coming along. Also add that both Kirsanov LHD and Salin RHD could sign after their seasons and come over

I honestly wonder if they’d move Spence. He’s not progressed as much as I was hoping. He’s been ok. But that would mean Gav being signed.(good to know he can play right side) Maybe Burroughs could be moved, albeit not for much. Marcus Pettersen may be moved. His contract ends.
Would not be shocked if Dubas moved Sid or Malkin. But sure they would get their say where they go.

Kings have a history of getting star vets at 35 yrs or older . Iginla, Lecavalier, Kovy. Yeah, makes little sense to give up a price in assets for Sid or Malkin and the Kings are not 1 player away. But this is the Kings - Blake, Luc, Bergevin and prone to do the stoopid. Honestly would be cool to see what Sid or Malkin could add. But at what cost?
Seems more like a Ranger or Leafs kind of move to get one of them

I honestly wonder if a GM wants to see Portillo in an NHL game. Penguins goaltending sucks, but Portillo is not close or an answer. I’m kind of shocked that Askarov didn’t make the sharks and is in the AHL and has a 1.91 GAA. If I’m Dubas, I’d try to get him. Not sure why the Sharks are not playing him.
