Portillo is outplaying Knight in the AHL.

Martinez isn't a shutdown defenseman.

if this is martinez's last season, its great to have it with the kings. we love him and will miss him in vegas

I'll never have any idea why a team would pay positive assets for a 7 point, 2 million dollar bottom line forward. Out Turcotte on the fourth line instead of Accairi and your team will be better off

The problem with sending roster players to Florida is that they are such an attractive team for UFAs right now (weather, taxes, good team), it is less of a need to pull roster players onto the roster. I think a Knight trade would likely have to be a young, controllable asset that they cannot find in free agency.

Pittsburgh agrees.

because he's good defensively and can PK.
But hey, apparently guys who are good on the dot grow on trees for you.
54.7% in pk
55.7% in 5v5
good luck finding that for under 2 mil.
