Pre-Game Talk: Trade Deadline Shenanigans II

[gnarls barkley]

and Pirri aside, i'm pretty sure Versteeg has more playoff points than Ladd/Weise/Fleischmann combined so i'm not especially sure why everyone is flipping their **** over CHI's additions either

again people, depth acquisitions are not going to be the difference maker in a series. The difference maker is who's big guns show up to play.

 

[King'sPawn]

How the **** does Dean miss **** like Pirri, Despres, and even Boychuk awhile back? Godamn.

The playoff bound Panthers didn't want Pirri for their cup run, even for depth. That says a lot to me.

 

[scramble91]

Remember when Toffoli was a product of Shane Prince?

 

[Reclamation Project]

Still plenty of time to talk Van into Forbort +2nd for Hammy..

Every lousy trade is magnified.

"The Chicago Blackhawks have acquired a 32 gallon trashcan and rebristled push broom from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for a fourth round pick in 2019."

WHAT THE HELL IS DEAN DOING??? THAT TRASH CAN ADDS GRIT AND SIZE AND THE PUSH BROOM HAS SPEED!!!

The Kings need that trash can to lock Sutter out of the locker room.

At least the Ducks didn't get Drouin or Loui and the Kings kept Mersch, Kempe, and Pearson. Can't be mad at this deadline. Gaborik just has to come back healthy and the rest of the team needs to wake the **** up.

Playoffs -

Versteeg - 84GP, 16G, 26A, 42P.
Ladd - 57GP, 8G, 8A, 16P.

I'm glad someone picked up that reference.

The Kings have a trash can, and its name is Dustin Brown.

Kept all their draft picks for 2017 too.

#LAKings are not done. There will be one more, minor league deal. Still waiting on trade call.

Yes, but the last 2 playoffs, Versteeg has 2 goals, 3 assists for 5 pts in 27
games...and a combined -3. Not good. His good playoff numbers were his first
2 years...6 years ago. Dustin Brown was also good 6 years ago.

Hopefully we've traded John Hoven to the Ducks!!!

Apparently the Ducks have made another move. TBD.

Ducks still have something working.

 

[KingsFan7824]

For a 6th, who gives a **** if Pirri wouldn't work in Sutter's system, dude has 22(ish?) goals in 49 games. We need more scoring.

Had, not has. He has 11 goals this year.

The Kings need scoring, and the guys currently on the roster are the ones who need to score. Kopitar, Toffoli, Lucic, Carter. The guys paid a lot to do it.
