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

[unicornpig]

Turcotte + Kupari + Peterson (50%) retained for Chicago's first.

Are the Kings giving up too much for a chance at Bedard?

No, but Chicago would be dumb to do that deal

[Master Yoda]

Allard almost played a game for the Kings. Clearly Kings lose this trade.

 

[King'sPawn]

Well youre replacing the kings only lhd prospect for a young proven lhd. Blake is probably higher on durzi and Spence than bjornfot which he should be. They package is much better than ottawas 1st and 2 seconds, unless ottawas first is a lottery.

I understand and agree it's a driving force... but despite Bjornfot's shortcomings, that's still a lot of futures from a position of weakness to upgrade that weakness, and still to have too many RHD.

I agree the package is better, but it's just such a bad offer.

 

[HookKing]

I'm expecting Grundstrom or JAD moved for a pick. There is no way Blake has made all these moves and and then Kupari down.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Yes Blake needs to dump one of JAD or Grundstrom.

A 4th line of MacEwen-Kupari-Kayilev?

 

[FSL KINGS]

Center targets
Call Flames on Kadri & Lindholm
Call Florida on Bennett
Call Vancouver on JT Miller

Then call MTL & take a chance on Monahan. Get investigated by the league for LTIR cap circumvention when no one believes Blake legitimately wanted Monahan.

 

[kingsfan28]

still room for a decent 3c. not sure who, but its still a need that could really help.

 

[kingsfan28]

Technically that is the equivalent 2 first. Still better than what they got. with 700 RHD in our pipeline, surprised it wasn't one of them if true.

I'll be pissed if JAD is traded for a pick.

 

[DAkings20]

I feel dirty, I need a shower

 

[Sol]

For real offer someone Walker for a 7th

 

[YAYSAY]

I feel dirty, I need a shower

I'm gonna be sick

 

[Shellz]

I feel dirty, I need a shower

UGH. Haaaaaaaaaaaaate.

 

[unicornpig]

Kings play vegas anytime in the future lol

 

[DapperDan]

Something about the moves the Pens are making and the amount of cap space we have to play with makes me feel like there's a move that could be made here...
Dumoulin for Grundstrom +
Would love to bring back Carter in that too but that might be too much to wish for

Anderson - Doughty
Gavrikov - Roy
Dumoulin - Durzi

 

[AbsentMojo]

Just think how JQ must feel, the most 100% down and loyal guy having to join a rival... he mustve vomitted after putting on that gold jersey the first time. Martinez probably gave him a shot from a flask.

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Yeah. Vegas is my second team and I don’t even like seeing that.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Kings play vegas anytime in the future lol

April 6 in Vegas

edit: add King's first.

There's no combo the Kings could put together for the Hawks 1st. Certainly not until they know where the pick falls. Other than McDavid, there is nothing from any team that would entice Chi, and even then it's iffy. I mean obviously, if the Hawks had McDavid on the table, they would absolutely trade their 1st, because you know exactly how good he is, but he is 26, with a $12m hit, and a UFA is 2026.

 

[Statto]

It (Quick in Vegas) actually doesn’t bother me. I’ve processed the moment but he’s gone (I was definitely surprised by it). I’ll always think highly of him but I’ve never gotten emotionally attached to players. I’m a Kings fan not a Quick/Carter/Brown/etc fan. Take nothing away from any of them but I’m like that with every team I support.

 

[Sol]

How was Blake not able to get rid of a couple RHD? Kulikov went for a 3rd. We seriously don’t have offers? Pick up the phone

Oh there’s a lot of partners this time around. And he should be offloading dmen just to do it. There’s so much redundancy.
