HORRIBLE idea for Los Angeles. The only way we would exchange the already-known-to-play-well-with-Kings Viktor Arvidsson for the unknown quantity Reilly Smith is if you compensate us for doing so AND retain significant salary, and losing Arthur Kaliyev for the AHLer Alex Nylander and a future third doesn't come close to constituting a sweetener, it's a loss.

Arvidsson knows the team, they system, and was pivotal to the powerplay and a proven 30 goal scorer for a center starving for a winger of his caliber. This is asking to roll the dice with Riley Smith instead. I don't get the logic.

"PensFan03EEE" is a Kings fan?!?!? That's news to me.

It's a lot further away than anyone other than a Penguins fan thinks.

Yeah if I was LA idk why I'd do this. I definitely see the attractiveness for the Pens

I wouldn’t do this if I were the Kings because I’d prefer the flexibility to use the $5m of Smith’s contract on something else next year,

I don’t believe Kayilev has significant value at this point and question whether the things that made him drop in the draft are starting to become more prevalent.

Is Arvidssen going to be healthy this year if he gets to the point where he is being depended on for a significant role?
