except it makes no sense from the kingsI really thought Chychrun and Vejmelka for Clarke, Petersen and picks/prospects made a ton of sense on paper.

Trade for Chycrun and Vejmelka is too complicated to complete.If it was a Chycrun and Vejmelka deal, that would cost a ton for LA. You'd think they still want the 3 good picks/prospects for Chycrun, plus they might even want another 1st for Vejmelka (I'd say 2nd and a mid round pick is fair value for him but I'm not an expert). So that would be at least 2 firsts, a 2nd, a top prospect, and then you have to figure out the cost of taking Petersen (or buying out Petersen). If that's what they're trying to do, I'm not surprised that it hasn't happened yet.
Well there's your first mistake...According to Bruce Garrioch the Leafs and Oilers are 2 of them
Just put him on waivers again with the Coyotes claiming him... problem solvedPetersen has a 10-team modified NTC, which could be a snag, as well.
As well hey should be. But everyone after those two should be available if they want to improve and try to compete for Doughty and Kopitar. Which is smart because they have a solid prospect pool and those two can properly shelter any prospects so they develop and can take over.Clarke is an untouchable, same as Byfield. The only way you put him in as part of a deal is with a player of the calliber like Makar. JC is no Makar.
$11 million to be paid the next two years (including $4 million in signing bonuses this summer) + what's left on this years contract.Kings are against the cap. It is logical they want coyotes to eat that Petersen contract to make the trade work
I like how people say this. Until it happens, you can't say someone will be better than another player.

I don't know why people expect guys like Freidman to only report on facts. Speculation is a huge part of sports media, and at least Freidman is still intentional with making sure it is obvious what is rumour and what is speculation if you actually get information from him first hand.
One dares to imagine he'd like to be back in the NHL, so he wouldn't exclude Arizona from taking him, though?Petersen has a 10-team modified NTC, which could be a snag, as well.
We know Boston is still engaged from local media/insiders. What other teams are still engaged according to local/national press?

What I want to know :
1 - Were LA and Arizona attempting to work out a deal with Chychrun AND Vejmelka involved?
2 - Could we see Los Angeles make a goalie trade with Chicago (Petersen+ for Mrazek) or San Jose (Petersen+ for Kahkonen), and then move that new goalie to Arizona in the Chychrun Vejmelka trade, which Arizona would be more comfortable with? Mrazek and Kahkonen contracts both have less term and lower cap hit.
Kypreos was the one reporting the deal done for Clarke
What a mess this is becoming.
This is a preposterous statement. Clarke looked horrible at the WJC.Clarke is going to be better than Chychrun ever was in no more than 2-3 years.
If LA deals Clarke, Blake should be fired.
Not the Leafs eitherCan we just trade him somewhere please?
I don't care where as long as it's not the Kings

You're comparing Clarke to Makar? How do you know Clarke will be better than Chychrun? Did you watch the WJC's?Clarke is an untouchable, same as Byfield. The only way you put him in as part of a deal is with a player of the calliber like Makar. JC is no Makar.
Kyper has a 100% miss rate on Coyote rumors. If he offers a trade/ownership/relocotion rumor about Arizona bet that it's not happening.Kyper is an idiot, he's wrong all the time, I'm amazed he has a job, he's Eklund, but on TV
It really is insane the people (and GM's) who wouldn't trade a prospect who might, maybe, if everything works out, years down the road, someday be as good as Chychrun, who btw is a on sweet cap hit with term.Good lord talk about overrating prospects
"We will only trade Clarke if we get someone way better than Clarke will ever be!"
This is a preposterous statement. Clarke looked horrible at the WJC.
