Weekes: LA Kings Brandt Clarke on the move?

[KevinRedkey]

Traded Faber
Traded Durzi
Let Matt Roy Walk

Maybe there's something to this, but I hope there isn't for LA's sake. Enough is enough.

 

[Canovin]

Wow I didn't know LA drafted Faber lol

 

[Kcb12345]

Faber, Vilardi, why not Clarke?

 

[LG18]

Guys, we all know he's coming to MTL vs Christian Dvorak.

Right?

 

[ponder719]

Clarke and Byfield to Philly for Sanheim (almost certainly not, but I can dream...)

 

[Canovin]

LA going to empty out their cupboard in order to beat the Oilers

 

[centipede2233]

rob blake is that fantasy gm where everyone just overwhelms with trade offers knowing he will accept one of your crappy offers

 

[bland]

No chance the Kings trade him, he's just had a few bad games (at least looking at the stats) so he's going to be scratched.

That said, LA seems to be really dumb with how they're using him. Why is he only playing 13-14 minutes a night?

Because he hit the wall hard weeks ago but couldn't afford to rest him with Doughty out. This is ridiculous from Weekes, if anything they may give Clarke a breather. Its adding 2 and 2 and getting 40,000.

 

[nergish]

Weekes needs to chill

 

[EP to EP back to EP]

On a side note, what would Turcotte cost? I wonder if he could be an option to trade for if the Canucks are moving Miller and EP40.

 

[Buresflyingelbow]

Clarke and Byfield plus a Cap dump for Pettersson?

 

[quackquackquack]

Not "Boy Wonder" who was officially deemed untouchable!!!

 

[FlyguyOX]

Flyers-Kings finally going to complete the trade they've been talking about?

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

I won't believe it until I see a picture of a landmark or architecture.

Or a video of Weekes' forehead.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

LA going to empty out their cupboard in order to beat the Oilers

Or lose to them again, which would be comical.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Maybe he’s on the move to the Ontario Reign to get playing time

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Guys, we all know he's coming to MTL vs Christian Dvorak.

Right?

...no, but Hughes would definitely make LA an offer if Clarke was available...what would LA want from the Habs??...

 

[Dust]

LA going to empty out their cupboard in order to beat the Oilers

And then end up facing Vegas instead in the 1st round

 

[VanillaCoke]

Clarke for Hoglander prob

 

[Voight]

Man Weekes really could have been the go to insider in the post Bob Mac era but unfortunately he can’t stop himself from being an absolute mongoloid for twitter impressions

I'd argue Friedman was the easy successor and is. He probably has more connections than Weekes does.

 

[quackquackquack]

Yep. Weekes is a loser. He's a clickbaity troll at this point. Every other week he makes a post that's just "eyes emoji" and some NHL team.

The Kings aren't going to trade Clarke. Anderson, Doughty, and Clarke are the long-term core of their blueline.


He is a moron.

Well its Anderson and Clarke. Doughty is 35 lol Given the Kings pipeline, they are much better off keeping Clarke tho

 

[POVERTY]

Not sure why the Kings would even think about doing this, so I could definitely see the Kings doing this.

 

[57special]

Maybe to BUF for either Power, or Byram?

Doesn't really make a lot of sense, to me, in general, after trading Faber and Durzi. I mean, those trades seemed to signal that Clarke was your future RHD, so traing him a couple of years later doesn't make a lot sense unless it's an overpay.

 

[HockeyVirus]

I'd argue Friedman was the easy successor and is. He probably has more connections than Weekes does.

Him and Chris Johnston are the gold standard for me.

Then Lebrun, Dreger, and Pognotta who seem well connected but never have as many scoops (but can get details once they know to ask)

Weekes IDK. Well connected but hard to tell with him what he means sometimes which is frustrating.

 

[Docgonzo]

Didn’t Weekes tweet a picture of Pittsburgh with eyes after the Carolina/Colorado trade, nothing happened with that so far.
