Sure. Some King's fans may like Spence more that I do. King's have too many D.

Don't know if King's would give Jack Quinn any ice time. They don't like skilled players that don't grind in corners.

I don't think Buffalo does this one-for-one. I'd value Quinn more, and I like Spence (even though he's plateaued at this point and isn't particularly impressive in the playoffs).

I think with the puck-moving talent on the left side in Buffalo you'd want RD that compliment that skillset defensively as opposed to a small puck-moving righty in Spence.

Idk if Quinn would even be used correctly in LA's system. It probably could be done but LA would have to make another move for it to be viable. Something like getting Peeke or Carlo out of Boston.

We need guys who can play well in their own zone. Admittedly west coast teams, I don’t get to see much, but his defensive analytics are superb. Do you think that’s more of a result of his partner/matchups than his skillset?

Wouldn't really want to play him above the 3rd pair. If he had a better partner maybe Spence would look better.

You're breaking my heart.

I had this exact thought for a trade proposal earlier today reading the Clarke thread. I think LA is being really dumb with how they're using Clarke, but trading Spence for a right handed middle-6 winger both opens up a spot for Clarke and also adds a position of need for them.

The big thing I was unsure about is whether Spence was really the kind of defenseman Buffalo would be targeting. I don't feel like he is, but RHD is such a big need for Buffalo that I was wondering if they'd overlook that. If LA had that kind of bigger defensive RHD, I think LA and Buffalo would make fantastic trade partners.

No interest in this. Clarke would be coming back for quinn
