The Jets will just keep their waivers-exempt LHD. RHD would be nice but it seems they aren't prioritizing that (they waived a RHD that got picked up by MTL).

The Kings aren't interested in LHD without NHL experience. 200 NHL games minimum.

Watch some Heinola highlights then get back to me. He should be at 200 GP by now if the Jets weren't mishandling him.

Ha, ha. You think that Los Angeles would be the side adding a third when exchanging a proven experienced RhD on a team-friendly contract for a prospect with only 25 games under his belt? Seriously?

Guess again.

I've seen Heinola play plenty. Doesn't change what the Kings are looking for. He's not a significant upgrade over Bjornfot.
