Really surprised he didnt go to Utah for the feel good hometown hero storylines as he rides out the rest of his career.

And its a nice angle for Utah to establish hockey roots.

Copley, fine - I don't mind goaltending depth. Lewis - WHY?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Hey i remember him from the 1993 Stanley cup final

Better be our league minimum 13th forward that sits a lot in the press box so our kids don’t have to.

Drew Doughty says he stays a King, so he stays.

This signing signifies that Rob Blake is the worst GM in the league. Lewis needed to retire or sign with Utah but LA brought him back to block the kids prospects from playing.

He f***ing sucks

 

[ru4reals]

Don't know what's worst, drafting one of your players kids from college who was dogsh*t and averaged barely 4 points a game, or resigning Trevor F**king Lewis....Tough one here.

 

[CowMix]

probably both for the minimum meh fine

 

[Fat Elvis]

Horrible move, not as horrible as Edmundson, but horrible

I knew it was a possibility that they'd give him a mercy signing, but with all that has gone on recently and Blake's head in the noose, I didn't expect them to hand out loyalty signings. Lewis is a good guy, well-liked by all, and he isn't the worst forward to have out there on the PK or in a defensive situation, but he is slow, brings nothing else, and there are plenty of options that can do similar and a lot more. This is purely to get him to 1000 games played. I hope he doesn't see too much time and the kids play, but we all know that won't happen...

Lewis is the best at shooting the puck AT the goalie

Actually, I've never seen a player this skilled at never missing the goalie on nearly all of his shots. A true gem!

I swear he retired like 4 years ago. Lewis is still playing?!

4th liner at league minimum, 8-10 minutes a game, still kills penalties, doesn't hurt you but won't help the offense either, problem is he's blocking younger players in LA.
