Proposal: Lekhonen to Kings

[Vachon23]

My offer would have been:
Helge Grans + 2nd round pick

Still awfully rich for a player that would be nice to have but isn’t a need by any stretch.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

I think MTL might say, "No", to this deal.

 

[FSL KINGS]

I like Lehkonen a lot but I don't see what he does for the Kings.

I realize a lot of folks don't know a lot about us but if there's one thing we're not short on, it's middle six, two-way players.

Plus with the Kings' offense tax a guy whose career high is 31 points would probably score -2 with us.

our needs are young high-end offensive players or prospects, young high-end LHD players or prospects, young blue-chip goaltender

* Offensive tax reversed on last player from MTL.

As Habs fan, that's pretty much it. Not enough. I get that Vancouver isn't having a great year so #2 pick isn't bad, but a pick in the 45-50 range is still far from being a 1st rounder. And to most of us, that's where the conversation starts, though I expect any first will come with some kind of top-10 protection.

Then again, if Lehkonen gets moved, I expect it's to a contender who gets him for 2 playoff runs.

 

[Garbageyuk]

Would rather have a 1st or just keep Lehkonen instead of getting those two. 2 b/c level prospects? No thanks; we have plenty of those.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

of course he is and i got both fan boys within a few minutes. Nobody here decides anything.

Remember when you told us we were paying Danault over a million per goal

He's at 18 million and counting, completely shattering our cap this year

So no, I dont think anyone should really be listening closely to your evaluations

Yes, I've seen proposals with a first-round pick involved for Lehkonen, and I can see the OP offer isn't enough.

I remember that too !

18 million is an awful lot.

Man, I wish I could earn a million per goal.

 

[RationalExpectations]

Teams don t make for very good trade partners. While LAK should make the playoffs they are not among favorites and I don t see them giving up a lot of assets at TDL.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Due to Bergevin loving Lekhonen. I can see him being a fit there.

I would to Lehkonen to LA for Samuel Fagemo and Brock Faber

What an awful deal for the kings

I think there can be better deals for Lehkonen, such as one that brings a first-round pick or so.

Danault's numbers will go back to where they always were after the honeymoon effect. It is a long term deal and time is on my side.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

My offer would have been:
Helge Grans + 2nd round pick

Helge who?

 

[LAKings88]

Faber in my mind is up there with Sanderson. Yeah I know he was a second rounder but he has shown at every stage he is going to be a solid defenseman.

Fagemo in this proposal, is treated as a throw in when he himself is a very good prospect with 20 goal potential as a scoring winger.

Not chomping at the bit to make this deal for a middle six forward.

 

[Baksfamous112]

Do you know that Bergevin is not Kings manager?

He has advisory role only.

Brock Faber alone much more valuable to Kings comparing to Lekhonen.

Lekhonen for Fagemo and 2nd will be fair hockey trade in my opinion.

If Fagemo is the main piece coming back for Lehkonen I’d rather let him walk for free in a year and a half. Or kill myself

 

[TBF1972]

The asking price for Faber is the first born male child in every household

So if you only have girls, you get him for free.

With this LGBTQXYZ stuff you are allowed to choose your gender. I must have a serious word with my son ....

 

[No Name The Nameless]

Faber and Fagemo? Terrible deal for the Kings.

 

[bleuetbio]

Kings say no
They’ll go for a scoring forward if they add at the deadline

Hoffman? Drouin?

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Danault's numbers will go back to where they always were after the honeymoon effect. It is a long term deal and time is on my side.

i'm confident he can score 3 goals per season in the next 5 seasons and the remainder of this one.

Point is, it's okay to back off silly statements.

 

[Lockin17]

Lekhonen + 1 pick (calgary) + 2nd 2022 (Pick #33) vs Brandt Clarke.
