Speculation: Trade Deadline Options

[Davit17]

Really wish we traded Clifford instead. The guy does absolutely nothing but take dumb penalties. Nolan is a much better skater and he fights sometimes too..

 

[Fishhead]

He can still be re-signed this summer.

KingCanadain1976's head would explode

 

[BamBam1031]

Budaj for Bishop.
King for pick.
Rook for Iggy.
Checkmate. (But for whom?)

 

[Johnny Utah]

I wish King had his brother DJ's mean streak, then we would have a gem. Instead you have to practically beg him to fight and he rarely throws big hits. For his size he can be trampling guys.

 

[SFKingshomer]

I'll miss his face

 

[CanadianKingsFan14]

There's gotta be a forward or 2 going after the King trade. We also have more cap space so something has to give.

Yeah, but Clifford is worthless with a contract through 2020. Dwight King is a great penalty killer who will chip in with a few goals plus he's a UFA next year. He's much more attractive and easier to trade.

Sad to see him go, but most nights you wouldn't even know he was playing. This was the right move to make. I'm honestly shocked that Dean traded a roster player

He's the first player, other than Bernier and Jones, that played an actual role on either the 2012 or 2014 teams that Lombardi has traded. He's let guys walk in free agency, like Williams and Mitchell. He traded the edge of the roster players like Westgarth, Gagne, and Drewiske. First skater that was really part of it all that he's traded though.

 

[Little Psycho]

**** yeah! Should have gotten more for our first line left winger.

That's why we know something else is coming.

Still pending a trade call, so nothing official, but am told LA Kings and Colorado Avalanche finalizing a Jarome Iginla trade

 

[Face Wash]

Pierre says Iginla to LA done pending call.

 

[DAkings20]

If he gives up anything of value for Iginla...

 

[Davit17]

Wasn't expecting anything other than a 70 year old iginla

 

[Little Psycho]

I'm gonna miss him sitting on Lundqvist and scoring a goal.

 

[deaderhead28]

Dean you better be working on something else that actually helps this team.The team just got worse and slower with Iginla.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Kings dumped a 27 year old King for a 39 year old Iginla. Lol.

 

[Little Psycho]

Traded away one dead weight for another! Dean, you genius!

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Welcome to L.A., Iginla!

Hey, he adds leadership to the room. Maybe he can give Kopi some captaincy advice. In addition to Brownie doing that.

 

[BigBrown]

Kings dumped a 27 year old King for a 39 year old Iginla. Lol.

Yeah seems about right.

So we trade useless slow ass King and bring in even slower and more useless Iginla. Dean is gone after the season!

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

I'm sure getting older was Dean's priority heading into this season.

If they can get Colorado to take a bad contract, then it works.

[kingsholygrail]

Hey now the dead weight scored more than the selke winner.
