Quoting: GMBL
Quick is a rental for the Leafs at the end of the day, and they are exchanging Sanding for Durzi.
Nylander for Kempe probably is worth it in terms of the production. I moved out Kempe and Durzi because LA needs to also extend Anderson, Grunderstrom, and Vilardi and Moore next year (who has a similar skill set to Kempe kind of), so someone gots too go sooner or later. They could still add someone as a cheaper replacement for Kempe's skill set depending on the moves they make from here.
LA will have to give up a ton in futures for ARZ, so a 1 for 1 would be better for ARZ not LA.
Some execs think the ask for Chychrun is too high already, so here they are getting what they want but probably needs just a bit more which would come from the Leafs.
So, I was trying to think of the long-term implications of these trades for the teams and I think a 3-way like this would be something that might actually happen if it's true that the Leafs are interested in Quick and willing to send Nylander out. Personally, not a fan of trading Marner out, unless the Leafs can go get a cheaper replacement, someone like Necas but idk what they could give after this trade for him that Car would be interested in.
Quick will be the longest-tenured goalie in Kings history, the Kings during the rebuild offered every member of their core the option to move out. Quick declined, and went on to be the starter for all 7 games of our playoff run. No way after getting Fiala do the Kings rely on an unproven Cal Petersen. Expect Quick to not only retire a King, but to join the front office.
The issue with getting Nylander is they have a player with similar production who will sign cheaper, an issue that after signing Fiala is very important to the Kings. Additionally, Durzi and Anderson being likely budget RFA contracts, the Kings will rely heavily on those two taking discounts until more cap space appears.
For LA, we just don't want to lose too many active NHLers, we have prospects which is what Arizona wants (in regards to Chychrun)
I think it's unlikely the Kings and Leafs trade, but I could see something to a Durzi for Sandin type of trade if Clarke looks legit at training camp.
