So shitting on those shitting on the team - is just adding more noise. I know you are pent up from being banned, but you're not adding anything new with all these non hockey posts. I think better if you could join the conversation than be an anarchist in every thread. But whatever.
I thought he found a better site than this one? Guess he was banned there too.
 
Everyone should be on the table this is not a contenting team. But if I had to pick a core group to build around then Fiala, Kempe, Vilardi, Clarke, Byfield should be part of that.

I thought you found a much better place to talk about the Kings, why not just stay there if this place is so awful?

I’m also surprised SN hasn’t magically returned by now.

According to NHL Insiders Michael Russo and Eric Duhatschek of The Athletic, both Sean Durzi and Sean Walker could be dealt.

In addition, the Kings are close to finalizing a contract extension for pending unrestricted free agent D-man Vladislav Gavrikov, who was brought in at the trade deadline.

Los Angeles Kings Rumors: Two D-Men On Trade Block
 
Yeah, those writers.

There needs to be done more than that.

Roy is the last one to be traded, he fits our needs of size and playing rough.

3 of Iafallo, Arvidson, Walker, Durzi, Spence have to go and then some.

Sadly Durzi and Spence are luxuries you can have if your defense core is huge and tough, not as main players.
 
Don't see why they'd move Durzi. Cheap, useful player. Can plug in around the lineup & play PP & PK. While lacking in some areas, looks just fine for a second year NHL'er. Good backup in case of injury.

If they could get a good 3C for him or in a package for a good starting goalie, that's fine.

I hope this is true. Is that site legit?

Sometimes a GM has to take a player away from a coach.

Spence is better than Durzi and cheaper.

He was going to free agency at the end of the year. What moves can Blake make now for improving the team?
Moving a combination of Walker Petersen Durzi and Grundstrom to pay Gavrikov and a cheap goalie like Korpisalo or Stolarz would be basically running it back with the same team that finished the year.
To fill with the roster with the ingredients they need like a couple of Tom Wilson, Lowry, Crouse types and another dman like Soucy or Graves would be impossible without moving some of Moore, Iafallo, Arvidsson or Roy or even Doughty.
Maybe he has his eye on some size and toughness coming out of college thats off the radar for league minimum. That could be a creative solution.

Almost feels you have to do that....kinda like having an overgrown lawn/tree/bushes you have no idea WTF you have under there until you get rid of the clutter, Walker, Peterson, Durzi, Grundstrom, JAD, Iafallo, etc to me are all clutter....keep in mind, I have ZERO problem running back the same team, minus the goaltending, but to improve that goaltending you have to de-clutter.....

I love Arber but no way Habs trade him. He’s a corner piece of the team now. Kings don’t have a player like that, because they don’t think a player like that holds any value. Which is sad. Arber is popular amongst his teammates and fans.
Can we retrade for Quick and then send him to Montreal and tell them he's like Carey Price except he's actually won?

The thing with Durzi is he is one of the few Kings with any bite. So they move him they better add a LHD with some attitude.
Same thing could have been said about Brendan Lemieux...
