Marchessault is the only player who I want. If the Kings are serious about getting grit, talent, and leadership, and most importantly “intangibles”. Look no where else. This dude is clutch and his play is infectious.
I think Blake can really buy himself some favor with the fans if he ends this entire ordeal with the acquisition of Marchessault. Hes the only one who can potentially fix the absolute pathetic absence of balls on this team.
I’d immediately strip the C and give it Marchessault easily. He’s easily an inspiring leader and the kind of guy you’d want the players to emulate. And reward him with that title so everyone knows the mold themselves in a similar image.
You’d have off the team
Lewis, Lizzo, Arvidsson, and PLD.
And added
Burroughs, Jeannot, and hopefully Marchessault.
That’s a huge improvement in the balls department.
If they pull this off I tip my hat to the moron in charge.
