I'd love that for the Avs but there would have to be a significant piece in there to make the Kings better now or in the future. Looking at their roster the Kings are dealing from a position of strength at C. One has to assume they will have to accommodate Kopitar, Dubois and Byfield at C eventually (plus others) so does Danault find himself in a similar position to the one he was in with the Habs? He also has to waive for the Avs, so lots to consider. Danault is just the perfect fit for an Avs 2C for me and has history with Drouin, Tatar and Lehkonen as a bonus (I haven't checked exactly how much he played with each of them or how effective they were) so I'd try to keep Tatar for the cup run if I could afford to (probably dependent on when Lehky returns). The cap saving for LA would also allow them to add another piece at the TDL.
