Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

First time doing a Kings AGM.
Depth in forward and defense positions is an embarrassment of riches. That forward corps might be strongest in the league overall.
There isn't a ton of cap to play with here, and since Spence and Clarke are both ready for full time roles in the NHL I think it'd make a ton of sense to move Roy out.
Other than that bridging Vilardi is the only viable option unless you're trading one of the forwards out.
Varlamov + Copley should be an improvement over last years goaltending, though they might want to bring Korpisalo back idk.

Madden, Tyler

Additional Details:

Don't see a spot for Madden on this roster. Since he isn't waiver exempt any longer I think it'd make sense to move him to any team that could make use of some forward depth. I settled on Winnipeg but I could see a fit for Florida or Boston also.

I heard Matt Roy is virtually untouchable by most Kings fans. But if he's not, you could have just gone with one trade cuz I'm sure the Jets would be in on him in a heartbeat!

Matt Roy is not available. If he was, he'd cost significantly more than that.

Zero chance they move Roy. Guys like him are extremely hard to come by

It would take at least a 2023 first plus a young LhD to entice Los Angeles to consider moving Matt Roy. The Kings plan on re-signing him in 2024.

Awful for LA. If Roy is being moved than a good amount of assets is coming back. If it's Dallas than they better ask for Harley. Which Dallas wouldn't do meaning LA isn't trading Roy.
