Description
I hate the Kopitar-Brown-Whoever lines. Brown does best with AK, but they don't have a solid LWer..AI isn't it. These trades clear out the old. And at this point the true return isn't a prospect or draft picks but the cap and roster space for newbies. They're going to get wrecked next year = lottery pick. That's fine.
I really like the Quick/Leddy trade, but I am not sure on the value exchange. JQ is being way undervalued. Get him on a playoff team (Islanders) and he'll do some damage. Leddy is rumored to be traded somewhere...helps with LD spot.
Giving up TT for JP and 2nd is an Edmonton steal. But, TT is on his last year. Put that kid with McJesus - he scores 40 goals. Lotta upside.

Very well thought out and constructed. I agree with all of your trades except for the Rangers one -- not because of difference of opinion on value but simply on emotion because I feel like Kovy deserved better treatment from Desjardins and Blake (who should have told him to play Kovy or else).

It was reported a few days ago that LA had talked to Edmonton about Puljujarvi but was told that the only way they'd trade him to the Kings is if Lucic was included in the deal. Blake turned that down.

If the Kings are going to trade Toffoli, I'd like to see them target Pilut from Buffalo.

I saw that too. It seems silly that EDM would rather JP walk to Europe than get something for him. I think they're just going to have to accept Lucic is not going anywhere without substantial $ retention or a fat sweetener.

I'd rather have Forbert than Leddy. Cheaper and better defensively.
