I am no voice or speaker for any fan or the Kings organization.... i can't belive i am typing this out
With that said, you know the regular drill.
You are being shut down by 1 or 2 posters, then you demand a head count because you think you deal with nut cases
and get the same answer from other peeps who feel to answer your call
There is also the case that you always try the same, you take players from your organization that lost the spot to someone better.
It's also not enough to offer them one time and get a negative response, you try it over and over again with the same car salesman
tactics. You take players, that lost their spot to someone better and try to sell as if they would still fill out this position.
I will respond now as positive as i possibly can.
The Kings only need are scoring wingers, it would be extremely nice of you to consider that in the future.
A great way to improve offers would be if those winger score with a great attitude and positive mindset.
Scoring goals with a bad attitude are also welcome.
We also have to politely decline players that fall out of set parameters regardless by how much and feel it would be better to contact
the Rangers fanbase if we notice a player of interest.
Thank you for your time.
Truly yours,
An insignificant fan without connection or relation to anyone employed by the Kings organization
You have a right to your opinion, and I will support that always, whether I agree with it or not.
Whether that opinion is subjective commentary or with more merit on some objective basis is something that needs to be examined on an instance by instance basis.

I was responding to a thread which specifically asked for a top LD to LA. Not a W.
If you disagree w/OP's premise that is fine, as again, you have a right to your opinion.
But anyone jumping down my throat for respecting OP's right to a courteous answer will get retort from me, so let those who would go there beware.
And as to the matter of Lindgren, one last time, I advised poster Lindgren was all LA was seeking as to a defensively solid LD w/good/good+ mobility. That is not car salesman speak. That is fact based on the eye test. I fully disclosed upfront that he is not a unicorn and is just short of the 6'1" if I remember height requirement. I said too bad b'c he is good value at start of a 3 x 3 deal.
Poster showed interest and an open mind to getting more on Lindgren.
Which is more than you are willing to do, apparently.
I do not have any desire to ram Lindgren down LA or anyone else's throat. I am interested in objectively discussing his market value, which likely varies from team to team w/differing needs and available assets.
The fact that this thread seeks "top pair LD" and Lindgren IS a top pair LD justifies his discussion here.
NY is happy to enjoy him for now and move him if as appears necessary soon when we will need cap $ for LaF, Kakko, etc.
He will obv not get, nor should he, what a lefty Parayko would command, but he wll get signif more than a 1st from somewhere. That we are moving him does not mean we are moving lesser asset to replace with better, although there is nothing wrong in that.
The door is open if ya wanna be reasonable.
If not, fine, you do you.
