I agree with all Blakes summer moves except the PLD one.
-Moved Peterson/Walker - good move. Grans likely won't be an NHL'er. Had to give up cash and a 2nd to take those salaries.
-Moved Durzi for a 2nd. Loved Durzi, but Kings needed to make room for Spence.
-Re-signed Gavrikov.
-Let McEwen and Korpisalo walk. Smart moves now.
Kings did need to move one of the big three 4 million guys in Moore, AI, and Arvidsson. They moved the right one in AI, even though he's a fan fav. He is about to turn 30 and has only year after this on his deal.
The Vilardi and a 2nd for PLD is what bothers everyone. It's too much. Kings could have just moved AI and kept Vilardi, Kupari, the 2nd and signed another center.
