Speculation: Fire Rob Blake Blow it Up Offseason Thread (update: Robitaille, Blake and Hiller stay)
- Thread starter Schmooley
- Start date

Xenforo Cloud has scheduled an upgrade to XenForo version 2.2.16. This will take place on or shortly after the following date and time: Jul 05, 2024 at 05:00 PM (PT) There shouldn't be any downtime, as it's just a maintenance release. More info here
Wouldn’t be a Kings dev camp without an early 2000’s player’s son in his mid-20’s as the mystery special guest.

Eric used to be team owner for a CHL team in my area, the Arizona Sun Dogs. Unfortunately, now defunct in a now defunct league. Too bad, it was great hockey.
Oh dear....you aren't saying the Central was great hockey? Or just.....great hockey at the time for the area...kind of?
Arthur kaliyev says he's so happy to remain a king because of the formative network of growth and support the kings org has given him. He says being with this very professional organization has helped his career by leaps and bounds and thathe wouldnt want to be anywhere else.
Except maybe vladivostock or murmansk

It actually surprised me the level of competitive hockey that was being played here. I bought season tickets and they quickly informed me that they were canceling the next season. I did get a chance to watch them win a league championship. I was surprised we had a team, owned by a former King and it was fun to watch.
Ah got it, ok, I remember the CHL, good hockey wasn't the word used, entertaining, absolutely.....

Blake: How 'bout a 4th for Jannot?
BriseBois: Gotta be a 3rd.
Blake: How 'bout a 2nd!
BriseBois: Still get that 4th? I love 4ths.
Blake: Sure, don't like them picks anyway.
BriseBois: Why did you jump to a 2nd?
Blake: I'mma offer sheet Pinto! 1st & 3rd baby!
BriseBois: isn't Ottawa in my division? Great!
Edit

6-ish mill for recovering Laine
6-ish mill for S. Pinto offer sheet

Robertson's P/60 last year was 2.36
We need him for when his brother becomes a UFA. Like the Ducks and Niedermeyer.

I'd happily take him, I know we've been linked before.

One of Bertuzzi Stamkos or Toffoli and a solid #3 D and I’ll be happy

For over 5 million? Bertuzzi? Hard pass.

i don't think bertuzzi is the worst option out there, especially since he doesn't really command huge term
questionable defense with a bit of edge but stable points on the board? could be worse

If Blake can upgrade the D and land both Jeannot and Bertuzzi, wow. The Kings will be tough as shit to play against.

As a reference, Bertuzzi had the same amount of hits and blocked shots as PLD did last year for us.
And as far as fights go he had one fighting major.
There are much better options; especially for 5M+ which he wants.

well he's more of an agitator than a fighter, i'd rather have a guy who takes crosschecking penalties being a piece of shit than lazy hooking penalties from behind the play

If Bertuzzi plays with an edge and has decent production and we can get him for a good price, why not? Itd be a win in my book this offseason. I don’t want any big pieces, I want sandpaper that are willing to get dirty.

Tyler Bertuzzi was a lazy no show for a majority of the time last season.
Similar stat line as PLD, multiple stretches of no production. 3 points in his first 12 games, 1 point in his next 11 games (November 19th - December 14th)
Bud wants 5M+ over multiple years but is an absolute trash hockey player.

Re bertuzzi
We need players that have had all their shots.
This guy doesnt impress me

I'd prefer a player or two with rabies.
King's just haven't had bite since Hannibal was traded.
