You shouldn't like it. "CJ Smith is a great prospect" yet hes 24 years old and hasn't cracked the NHL. Risotlainen is very meh and not worth 2 2nd rounders. This is a heavy overpay by LA

Kings shouldn't be trading draft picks. Let alone 2nds.

Kings say No, thanks, we'd rather rebuild our way. Doughty is perfectly acceptable for the time being (!) and Walker and Roy look sufficiently promising that we don't have to spend four prime assets to upgrade on that side, and that's assuming that Ristolainen is an upgrade.

McCabe is extremely under rated, hes top pair on Buffalo and would be on Chicago too. Asplund is a rookie...

He may be under rated but he’s still not the centre piece in a Strome trade. Hawks can do better
