Muzzin isn't the next coming of Jesus for god's sake. Burakovsky, a prospect defenseman, and a 1st rounder...that's a massive overpayment. The Kings can't score and need young forwards that have room to grow and mature. Iafallo and maybe Kempe are their only decent prospects. Amadio, Brodzinski, Andreoff, Shore...they all stink. If Kopi. Toff, and Pearson are slumping...and Carter is out...that leaves no one to put up numbers (Gaborik is washed up, don't count on him...)
Given that they have Gravel, Forbort, Folin and a LOT of defensive prospects, they can afford to make a value trade. Bura and a 3rd is about right.
