The Kings are out of the Eichel sweepstakes now that they signed Danault, but I'll say the same thing that I said prior to that signing.
LA will not trade both Vilardi and Turcotte. One or the other. Here's the template for an acceptable Eichel trade from LA.
1. Top two protected 1st round pick
2. One of Turcotte or Vilardi
3. One current roster player not named Kopitar, Doughty, Danault, Edler, or Brown (NTC/NMCs) and not named Bjornfot, Anderson, or Petersen (positional needs). Iafallo, Kempe, Arvidsson, Roy, and Walker are probably the best choices here.
4. One prospect not named Byfield, Clarke, and the other of Vilardi/Turcotte.
That means you could technically do the following trade:
2022 1st round pick (top two protected)
Turcotte
Kempe
