Kings say No. Turcotte has a higher ceiling

Regardless of centre depth you don’t trade away a potential 1C unless it’s an insane overpay

I don't know why Rags fans keep low balling for Turcotte.

Probably don't see him play. He's gonna be a good one.

Turcotte is way more valuable than Lundqvist. Brett Howden isn't a valuable asset anymore, he's just a bad NHL player.

I know turcotte has the higher ceiling, which is why I said what needs to be added. Ppl here are severely underrating Lundkvist tho, just a glance at wheelers top ranked prospect post draft can show you that, turcotte is at 15 and lundkvist is at 25. Both centers and right handed defenseman are premiums in the league with a slight edge going to centers. LA just got Byfield and have Villardi, Lias Andersson, Akil Thomas, and Rasmus kupari; so it’s not like they are lacking at center. Keep in mind this is also a team that has kopitar signed for another four seasons. They have barely any defensive prospects and lundkvist is one of the top defensive prospects in the league. Howden was just a throw in to fill a bottom six role. He’s only 22 so it’s not like he cannot grow at all as a player. He will never be an elite player, but he can become a very good third liner or fringe 2nd line player still.
