Speculation: LA Kings News, Rumors, Roster Thread 2022-23 Season

[JKG33]

I want a Chychrun trade to happen so badly, but I feel like if it were a done deal and they were waiting for after the Kings/Pens game someone would've figured something out. An insider leaking something. A player's family/friend posting something. Notable scratches for the Kings/Reign. But we've got nothing so far.

I'd love for Vej to be involved too, but no way he starts tonight if that were the case. But I do agree with All The Kings Men from earlier, the Copley signing seems way too oddly timed to be routine buisness. Could very well be waiver protection, and the Kings plan to roll with Quick and a new guy for the rest of the season.

But it doesnt make sense to play Quick anymore. He is done. He loses, badly, every game.
If we are really making moves in an effort to move up then Quick cannot be part of the equation.
Copley is our backup G of the future who just happens to be the starting goalie of the present because Quick is no longer capable of NHL duty.
Honestly I wish people would stop talking about Quick like he is relevant, or he is going to be re-signed next season. It's over.
Signing Copley to basically a veteran minimum 1 year contract isnt going to stop anyone from claiming him. A lot of teams could use a decent backup at that price tag going into the playoffs.

People have been calling on Quick's demise for years now. And every year that the Kings make the playoffs he shows up and does some f***ing.

Unless LA goes out and gets a Demko or Gibson level goalie, Quick is still my playoff starter until he looks cooked in the playoffs too.

Copley's recoed is great, but his .897 doesn't scream playoff starter, or even a goalie that most teams would carry as a #3 on the NHL roster.

Out in the 1st round, swept, 8-6, 7-1, 6-1, 4-2 are the final scores in the games dont bother watching.
I believe Blake will pick up another goalie for us some time this month, a Greiss or someone like him.

Quicks been feast or famine in playoffs, as has the rest of the team. But in those wins he was dominant. I'd take those odds over anyone else in the system or whatever other dime a dozen backup

If you want to trust the playoffs to a 37 year old dumpster fire who is 8-12-3 with ratios that are profane then be my guest but Im glad youre not the GM.

Respectfully disagree. I'm taking the old horse out for one last ride. If he's dead after game 2 then Copley it is.

 

[All The Kings Men]

Nobody scratched for the Kings or Reign.

Nobody I work with is talking about it. We're all a little preoccupied.

 

[Mattias]

The main board is frustrating to read. A lot of posters saying it'll be QB or Clarke ++.

Just want this to be announced an a hell of a lot cheaper than everyone thought.

 

[No Name The Nameless]

Some Oilers reporter (I’ve never heard of) claims it isn’t EDM or LA. Tweet in the main board thread.

Betting the field

 

[No Name The Nameless]

Turcotte, TB, and maybe a first would be my guess.

I’d love that. No trading Spence.

 

[Schrute farms]

Did the LA Kings post a tweet saying we sent QB, Movarare, 2023 1st and 2nd for JC? Then pull it back?

I would literally quit being a fan until Blake was fired if this happened. I’m serious

What reason(s) would Arizona TWEET '
"ROSTER UPDATE: Coyotes D Jakob Chychrun is a healthy scratch tonight versus the St. Louis Blues due to trade related reasons"
Without announcing the deal? Have you ever seen that?

1. the other team is playing a game and does not want to anounce it, due to distraction
2. ???
3 ???

It's weird. What could other reasons be?

I feel like I’ve seen it before but it’s always closer to the trade deadline. Can’t remember who it was so this post isn’t really contributing much. I’m consistent at least.

Quick will get more games.
You gotta try to get him going too, before the playoffs.
Former Conn Smythe winner known to elevate for the post season.
Hell he could still be worth thought about starting a series on a very short leash,
I doubt think we got JC, no one scratched in LA or Ontario

Or to pressure negotiators,

 

[Peter James Bond II]

announcment tomorrow?
Chychrun to LA for #1 2023, Vilardi, Pinelli. ?

 

[Sleeping Dog]

I’d be surprise if Gabe is included, since he’s injured. But you never know.

 

[Cook24]

announcment tomorrow?
Chychrun to LA for #1 2023, Vilardi, Pinelli. ?

I hope not. Vilardis has been one of our best players prior to injury…

 

[Sol]

where is TonellisGhost to tell us if there’s a trade or not

 

[FSL KINGS]

Sorry for being the downer, but someone pointed out Chychrun skates 30 mins against the Hawks & was scratched the next game in a back to back. Seems completely legitimate to not ride a player that hard when you are thinking of trading him.

Maybe something is close, but it seems like the back to back was more the reason than the trade being completed.

 

[kingsholygrail]

I wouldn't even put it past Arizona to just sit his ass until the deadline.

 

[Docgonzo]

I didn’t want Chychrun but I’ve accepted the strong possibility Blake trades for him. As long as it doesn’t include Byfield, Vilardi, Clarke or Kaliyev I’ll live.

I really don’t want them to trade Spence since he’s been my guy from D+1. Been banging the Spence and Nousinen drum for a bit. Poor Kim, just not big enough. If Blake can pull this off without those 4 and Spence then wow.

Also if he trades this years 1st he’s got to take a goalie in the 2nd round. Or trade up to take one. Desperately need a young future one.

The Yotes themselves said he was held out for "trade-related reasons". The posters on the main board are out to lunch if they think Chychrun (A high end second pair D man, with a horrible injury history, that has also demanded a trade) is returning a blue chip prospect ++. Fagemo, Kupari, etc, + Spence and a 1st is a more than fair offer. If we are making this deal I really really hope Blake is able to swindle it to where Spence isn't involved.
