Kings shouldn't be trading for 50 point player and giving up likely a top 5 pick for that pleasure.

You couldn't have picked a worse team to take a first rounder from, honestly...

Well, maybe DET or OTT, but that's a low bar.

Backstrom isn't going anywhere. He parted ways with his agent, and is negotiating with the Caps directly. I don't think he'd do that if he was looking to leave DC.

Great player. You would certainly be very happy with him if he decides to leave for Minnesota.

Why are you trading Zucker? And if you're serious about it, what would be a fair return?
