I didn't know Horvat played LHD.

I didn't know Horvat played LHD.

Gives you guys that incredible #2 centre your looking for and takes pressure of Danault and Kupari

 

[Kingspiracy]

I like Horvat but I just dont see a fit. We need a physical top 4 lhd and a goalie upgrade first

We have the perfect 2nd line centre: Phil Danault

We need a LHD. Bo Horvay is a great player and leader. He is a luxury we cannot afford to waste assets on when we have other, far more significant pressing needs

 

[FSL KINGS]

Re-signing Horvat next year would be difficult as well. Would be a solid add though.

 

[Reaper45]

While not a lefty I wouldn’t mind Schenn again.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I'd absolutely do it value wise because I'm a total Bo fan but it doesn't address the Kings' biggest needs and depletes them of the chips they'd need to pursue those needs

 

[AHLdepth]

I didn't know Horvat played LHD.

I mean......just because we haven't tried doesn't mean he couldn't?

 

[Ollie Weeks]

And then LA sends Horvat the the Jackets for Gavrikov, and everybody extends immediately upon the trade? Sure.

LA does not have salary space or need for Bo Horvat

 

[Mrfenn92]

Salary cap space and position make the kings say no. If Kopitar’s contract was up this year maybe they do this.

 

[BringTheReign]

This is a contender move with Horvat going to free agency. We are not a contender.

Danault is a better player than Horvat.

We can toss in OEL and take out the first from your side

Danault is a better player than Horvat.

Ummm.. not sure if this is a joke

 

[Hodge]

Ummm.. not sure if this is a joke

It’s not. Danault is a top 10 (maybe top 5) defensive center in the league while also being a SIGNIFICANTLY more productive 5v5 scorer than Horvat. 70 5v5 points (2.08 per 60 minutes) for Danault since 2019 compared to 57 (1.65 per 60) for Horvat.

Horvat is just a power play merchant who’s lucky to play on one of the best units in the league. Danault dominates him in every other aspect of the game. I’m a Sharks fan who hates both of these teams for the record.

 

[KingsFan7824]

The Kings definitely need another F, and especially one that needs a UFA contract starting next year.

The Kings don't have $13m in cap space at the moment.

 

[Yultron]

Danault is a better player than Horvat.

Unfortunately this season or at least so far that’s the case . But Horvat is out scoring him

 

[Kurrilino]

Horvat is the last player we need.

Defense and Goalie must be fixed first long term before we are even looking at centers.
Also Grans is not for sale

 

[funky]

Start the trade with:

To L.A - Gavrikov,

To Columbus - Horvat,

To Vancouver -

And start filling in the blanks from there.

L.A needs a big left shot Dman that can take care of his own end and bring a bit of bite. We are overstocked at right shot defenseman, young forwards, and we have picks, but Blake traded last years first and I would be surprised if he traded this years for a rental.

I have no problem trading Grans as some others do, but would Vancouver be interested in Durzi as a start?

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Nah, that value is more than fair, but like it's been said it's not at all what the Kings need. The Kings three main issues are LD, goaltending, and toughness, and this addresses absolutely none of those while trading away assets that could be used to try and address those needs. Easy pass for the Kings

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Don't wanna take up bandwidth.

Turcotte for Bahl.
