After Englund It’ll be interesting how they pair Clarke and Spence. It wouldn’t actually surprise me if Clarke ends up with Gavrikov, I just think stylistically it works better. I think they’d need Gavrikovs IQ to work with Clarke’s unpredictability. Whereas Spence isn’t going to do anything that risks exposing Edmundson too much.That's a tidy piece of work.
Spence is an absolute beauty and there's some upside to come. His numbers even with an absolute turd like Englund were spectacular.
They need to use 3 D across the 2 pp lines because all three RD need to play with three man advantage. It’ll be interesting to see how they accommodate things, because it’s hard to justify not using any of them atm.I just hope he gets pp time![]()

It’s a great deal and ends when they should have cap space to give him what I expect to be a significant hike. His growth has been reassuringly consistent, decent head for the game, good toolset and he will get physically stronger.
I was really hoping that Paul was going to work out , because Scooby LaDue was a baller nicknamePauldan LaSpence!*
*nevermind that Spence already nearly doubled LaDue's NHL career in production, but acknowledging that would destroy the narrative.
Watch he's gonna be a sweetener in Kaliyev trade, so management can recoup that 2nd round pick.Can we trade him already
I really, really wanted Wayne McBean to work out.I was really hoping that Paul was going to work out , because Scooby LaDue was a baller nickname
McDonald's should have called their coffee McBeanI really, really wanted Wayne McBean to work out.
Great deal for the Kings. Spence may flourish more, now decoupling from Englund.
Somebody actually used LaDue as a comparable?Pauldan LaSpence!*

Yep. Multiple people multiple times.Somebody actually used LaDue as a comparable?

RFAdoes this take him to UFA or will he be an RFA at the end of the deal?
So how much do we think Portillo gets?So I believe that leaves onlyKaliyev andPortillo left to be signed
