Exactly... Blake has the touch for finding and trading for the least hungry players you could imagine... i picture them passing a blunt before the game.. having the munchies is not same as. being hungry for the record

A 1st & a A/B+ prospect for Tyler f'ing Toffoli? Blake, don't you f'ing dare.

How could Blake have known?
Welcome to the trade deadline store. It's like trying to buy toys for your kids on Amazon a week before Christmas.
Sure would be nice to be sellers on a guy like Roy or Danault instead of possibly buying as faux contenders, right?

Relax Blake's not trading for Toffoli and he isn't getting fired. Enjoy the rest of the deadline and season
You don't think Blake has a chance to be fired if the team doesn't have any playoff success?
Just curious when it becomes results oriented at all, if not 7 years, is it 8, 9, 10, never?

Blake Out of Hell III: Back in to Hell
The answer to your question is that Hoven hasn't said Blake's on the hot seat yet.

At least you'll have all offseason after the first round to figure out where in your place to retire and hang your Mayor-signed Blake jersey.

I said during pre season this year Kings had holes and wasn't a contender. I am a realist and can tell you Blake's not being fired cause ownership agreed to the Dubois trade and knew the cap for the Kings would hamper any chance for the Kings to add this year. Look to this upcoming season for more flexibility. This isn't about what I personally think as a fan, it's just reality.

I guess I'm just perplexed by the logic that Blake gets one more year after clear regression and massive expenditures of money and assets when he's been in the job longer than most. Do you think guys only get fired when ownership says "no you can't do that" and they do it anyway?

Lets package Kaliyev + Englund for Olivier and Provorov.
Mikey Anderson - Drew Doughty
Vladislav Gavrikov - Matt Roy
Ivan Provorov - Brandt Clarke
*Jordan Spence
Then Roy can walk in the summer and you still have a really solid top six.

If you think Blake should be fired for the reasons you feel you stated thats fine.Maybe he does for a lot of you, but what I am hearing he isn't.

Provorov wouldn't ever be a King while Luc and Rob are in charge, Provorov has baggage that management would be afraid to trade for.

I guess I'm just skeptical that he gets by on another year of dog calendars and celeb sightings and everything off ice rather than on ice results.
But if they think no one will notice regression despite being capped out and devoid of picks and prospects, I guess.

Ownership okd the Dubois trade and knew the organization would be in cap hell for this season.

My face when Kopitar gets boarded by Carrick and the Kings have no response. Then will be pissed at the no response, and the pacifists will cry in dismay that we want vengeance. Rinse and repeat.

While being a contender.
That's the part you keep leaving out. They thought that they were over the hump.

It will be the same cap situation next year. They wont even be able to bring back a team as good as this one.

It was an idea. I didn't say it was a good idea.
I want him back. Hopefully at a reasonable price tho. Purely sentimental more than logical.
