I appreciate the idea, but wasn't the last one Sekera? Which ushered in the Suck-era for LA

Sekera came from Carolina

That would be cute if Korpi does go on another tear like the 5OT game. Still wouldn't make this Quick thing right, tho.

Cut throat business move by Blake if there ever was one

Ice cold

It's debateable they got a good goalie, and they traded a 1st for mediocre rentals AND pissed off the locker room and a franchise legend in the process

Rob Blake has to do something to self immolate his image once a decade I guess

f***ing

I guess Korpisalo is never not injured because he has had like 20 games in his career when he has not been ass

Well i quess youre right when you think you lost to Pens 2016 because you traded the legend of Brooks Laich.

That’s one way to make players not want to sign for ya!

Pretty sure Quick signed that deal when Dionne was still playing.

Unless Quick Jeff Cartered a bunch of hockey wives in the last couple of years I could see this kind of move honestly sinking the Kings. They're human beings and a gut punch from management like that could easily demoralize them going into the playoffs. Reminds me of when the caps traded Brooks Laich for Daniel Winnik in 2016 when they looked like an absolute machine going into the playoffs. Proper move on paper but you could see the air let out of the room after with the caps unceremoniously folding to the Penguins. And Quick meant a lot more to the Kings than Brooks Laich ever did to us

I have nothing to add except to say bravo for using Jeff Carter as a verb. lol

Who gives a f*** about Quicks feeling? This is a business and he was going to retire anyways.

His (now former) teammates

 

[Timeless Winter]

Does CBJ get anything else besides a 1st and Quick?? Asking price for just Gavrikov alone was a 1st and a 3rd.

Maybe, but it’s also a team that’s 2nd in the division and poised to make the playoffs. This undoubtedly ****s with morale.

I wonder if Quick stays in Columbus or if he gets moved to a contender like Vegas, or depending on what's up with Murray maybe Toronto

If Quick gets traded to Vegas I'm jumping off the Staples Center roof

He was so pissed at the kings but is flying back with them?

Most of the time traded players fly back separately For a variety of reasons.

Im waiting on some other reporters to confirm that locker room stuff. Because if its true its going to get confirmed fairly quickly

At this point I wanna see it, and have them play LA in the 1st round, with Quick winning

You gotta be these days. Quick shouldn't have sucked then. Great move by L.A. moving forward. They finally got their goalie.

 

[Sota Popinski]

Tell me your team has never won a cup without saying your team has never won a cup

The defending champs just let their cup winning goalie walk, genius. Who's your team who kept their cup winning goalie forever and ever?

To be completely fair, do anyone besides Kopitar and Doughty really care other than losing a teammate? Everyone else is here to win, the trade makes them better.

He didn’t carry us to the cup like Quick did to their cup wins. He was serviceable at best, and I’m saying this as a diehard fan.

Not even a close comparison. Nice try tho.

Patrick Roy won us 2 cups and retired an Avalanche goalie. The only reason we even got him is a trade that has been scrutinized for decades.

I’m loss for words, even though he sucked I thought he retire a king.

Kings love making deals with lumbus during trade deadline…2012 Carter, 2014 Gaborik.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

If Quick didn’t want to be traded, then don’t suck balls.

Exactly, I'm sure they are happy they have a legit goalie now. They can miss their buddy at the same time and neither feeling would be wrong.

I agree, the trade makes them better. Hard to really tell the impact on everyone else from our end, but from the reports - it does sound like the players are feeling it.
