Proposal: LA Kings - MTL (Chariot, Toffoli va prospects)
- Thread starter DC Comics
- Start date
Not ideal trading partners..
the Kings moved on from Toffoli and I’d be shocked if he was brought back and Chariot doesn’t fill the need of a young LHD to grow with the youth

No thanks to toffoli and kings arent in position to be giving up 1sts for rentals
Makes sense. They were passed by better prospects in the depth chart. Equivalent of late 1st round picks / B prospects at this stage. Not super excited by the offer but not completely wrong either.

Ideally the Kings are going to use a prospect like Kupari and a depth winger like AA for an upgrade. I like Toffoli but I just don’t think they’d bring him back. Chiarot would be nice but cost is counter productive.
Why not a Kings fan propose deal for LA?
Grans hasn’t been passed by really, the staff thought he was a raw prospect that would need a bit of development but he’s blown past all expectations and is very, very highly thought of by the Kings
It makes sense for Montreal only.
LA do not need Toffoli or Chariot.
LA traded Toffoli when they started rebuild 2 years ago.
They surely do not need him now.
Kings should not trade for UFA Chariot either.
They made these kinds of mistakes in the past and hopefully will not repeat it.
I think those rumors of Chiarot / Toffoli only come from the fact that Bergevin is now consultant for LA. I don t see where either fit in their rebuild (and I say that as a Habs fan who really likes Toffoli and really think Chiarot can be a good add to a contender)
Take it easy. I’m just guessing at value. Grans for Chairot favors Montreal. But Toffoli for Kupari favors the Kings.
it’s an idea around the OPs suggestion. LA is a playoff contender so I have no idea if they’ll go for it or not. Blake will make that call.

some think the own all the boards. Being a kings fan does not make them monarchs and these boards their kingdom.
Nope to either, don’t need a rental and no bringing back players from the cup teams. Kings need to package their prospects for any mid 20s impact players that might be available.

I don't want to get too off the rails here, but Gallagher might be a better long-term target for LA. I understand that his value is limited on this board and his contract is not a great selling point. But, to me, it's very reminiscent of Brown a couple of years ago - and we all see how that worked out. He's still more than capable of being a .6-7PPG, two-way, gritty, EV contributor. He's shown that he can be a leader on the ice and has great chemistry with Danault. When I think about LA making a bit of noise in the playoffs, creating a base to launch/stabilize their young team forward, Gallagher is a really good option.
I think MTL would move him for a similar deal that is being talked about here: something like Kupari + RD Prospect. Over the next couple of years, I think this offers a greater impact for LA than a Toffoli deal and is likely a better roster fit in terms of how he produces points and what he brings to the team. MTL isn't where LA is in terms of putting together a competitive young team and likely won't for several years.

In dreams of Montreal fans Kupari and Grans would be good and realistic targets for trading not needed assets.
In dream of Kings fans Guhle and Romanov would be good and realistic targets for trading not needed assets.
Please stop dreaming Canadiens fans.

LA doesn't have room for Toffoli long-term, it's pretty much a non-starter for me. Too many younger players knocking on the door. Where would Toffoli fit? I'd rather give Vilardi the opportunity in the top six.
But let's pretend Toffoli and Chiarot for Kupari and Grans was the trade. This is what LA would look like post-trade:
Kempe - Kopitar - Toffoli
Moore - Danault - Arvidsson
Iafallo - Byfield - Brown
Lemieux - Lizotte - Kaliyev
Anderson - Doughty
Chiarot - Durzi
Bjornfot - Roy
Quick
Petersen

Gallagher is a nice wee player, but just the wrong age for us with that contract.
