" 3 years left after 2018-2019 season"...crafty way to explain that Brown's cap hit is for 4 more years lol

This looks like one of those situations where one player may not be enough to push LA over the top, and then they have all their money tied up... maybe not though, depends on guys like Kempe, Vilardi, Forbort.

The Kings should be giving Brown the cushiest minutes this season to coax teams into thinking he's still got it.

Tavares will get at least 7 years $77 million and the Kings are that last team that can afford him. Without moving out some serious salary.

If you want JT, please give the Isles something instead of signing him as a free agent. Well, that's what i'll say as an Isles fan.

Well, as for Brown, this is a 2018-2019 speculation, so it may seem crafty, but it is what it is (I can't say he has 5 years left, when we're two years into the future).

Appreciate the feedback. I'm in the minority, but I do think the Kings are one forward away from being in the mix again. I don't think there are that many strong teams in the league (And the west is much weaker than it has been traditionally).

Kings possession and Corsi numbers are pretty much where they've always been (Going on like 6 years now), they just can't score (Just like in 2012 before they got Carter and made a run and just like 2014 before they got Gaborik and made a run). They just needed one other 20 goal scorer last year.
