That's funny. Blake is so dumb that he'd probably move Clarke + 1st for Kupari lol
Edit: LA shouldn't move Clarke but the recent trades say otherwise. Signed a pissed off Kings fan

They chose Burroughs as the 7th D tonight. Clarke should change to the meanest agent out there & immediately request a trade. The organization isn't capable of developing an offensive defenseman. Get him as far away from the rot as possible.

Seems like Ryan Graves is just what the Kings want.

If he is moved hopefully it is for someone like Cozens who is still young enough to survive the rebuild that will come once Luc, Blake and Bargainbin have been jettisoned from Lala land and the new GM figures out it’s not about building around two Legacy players that Fathertime is quickly catching.
What are the Kings needs? Also it look like they have minimal cap space so do they have cap dumps? Jeannot is the only one I could maybe see as he makes 3 mill and hasn't scored much all year. Dont think he is worth his contract.

I keep saying this, but Rakell and the NYR 1st for Clarke and Moore makes a ton of sense on paper. Kings fans may not like it but I think the value there is very good for both sides.
It breaks down into Rakell for Moore and a 1st and 2 1sts for Clarke.

no, a healthy Kreider, if made available, would command much league wide
ck has back issues demand way down, not worth trading
don't drink the kool aid some are giving you
as to bread, he's a match talent wise/as scoring W, but not the best style fit, that is better for DAL
------------------
I still think a larger package incl Shesty + Byfield has merit, but I think taking them out to a smaller 3 for 5 package is doable, works for each
Clarke, Dvorak, Helenius
for
Trochek, Sykora, Parssinen, Jones, Robertson
rationale
premise
- K's want a now push for some futures but also a hedge if Kopitar falls off a cliff overnight
- Rs want quality youth and need D depth
Tro is faceoff % king. very good add for at least 3 yrs, maybe longer as immediate 2C level who can spell 1C
Clarke, OP explores if he can/should go now
Dvorak, not helping team now
-- Ks have to replace if dealt, but they have time for that
Helenius = nice project in lower six but expendable
- Sykora = high energy replacement who is read soon
and Pars at 6'3 w/'nuf speed/experience is fine stopgap now, possibly more
Rs need to add big D who can skate
Clarke (rd) and Dvorak (ld) are that, even if not fully ready for prime time this very second
Helenius w/Rempe + Edstrom is a line I wanna see
thoughts?
This is beyond terrible for the Kings. Change the 1st to your own and unprotected or top 5 protected.

So the trade is terrible because it’s the Rangers 1st at like #14 overall rather than the Penguins 1st at like #6 overall?
Calling it terrible based on that seems silly.

The part that doesn't make sense to me is why don't they consider trading Spence instead? You can keep Gavrikov and Doughty as your top-4 RD, I get that, but why play Spence over Clarke?
You could likely get a pretty solid middle-6 scorer for Spence, swap him for a similarly aged righty goal scorer and just promote Clarke to his spot.
