Thread: LA TDL

Where is the extra 6m dollars LA will need when Arvidsson and Grundstrum come off LTIR here at the end of the month?

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 7 at 9:23 p.m.

Thread: blockbusting blockbuster

LA isn't gonna spend a ton on a goalie for 1 or 2 years of production that they will have to resign to a massive contract in their 30s to kill the teams cap again.

Thread: Shakeup before Friday

What kind of troll attempt is this? LA will never move Byfield unless McDavid or Bedard is coming back. Turcotte is starting to play up to his potential now that he is healthy and LA is moving him for girnders? Yeah, right! I think Kaliyev will be moved, which is a bad idea by LA, but LA can't afford Toffoli with zero cap space when everyone is healthy.

Thread: Got to pay to win dont waste Papi prime

Kings have zero interest in a 14th forward. Would rather move up one of the Kings AHL guys before a useless trade like that.

Thread: Habs TDL

Pearson would be the worst player on the team with the least amount of points scored. Why trade anything for an overpriced forward? The Kings could bring up someone from the AHL and be better.

Thread: LA Kings front runners for Toffoli

LA has zero cap space to make anything happen on the trade front without moving major cash out for when they get healthy.

Why would LA want to pay anything for a 3rd string goalie? LA is looking for an upgrade in net.

Thread: Emily Kaplan with some bombs

Idk where LA is gonna get the cap space for anyone without moving a large contract out. They have less that $200,000 in cap space when their guys get back healthy soon.

Injuries have hurt Turcotte's development for sure. But Turcotte is playing really well right now as LA's 4C in the NHL. He looks like the player the Kings thought they were drafting at 5OA. No way LA moves Turcotte at all.

Kings are locking into PLD for good unless they want to buy him out but highly doubt that happens so soon. Bad trade for LA to take Toronto's garbage.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wingsfannn9191</b></div><div>Sorry guys i put the trade I guess didn't go through

Kings were interested in the habs dman which I won't try to spell out that starts with an x lol

Fourthperiod said kings offered a former 1st rounder... has to be turcotte</div></div>

What if it was PLD? Former 1st...check! 2nd line potential

But realistically it probably wasn't Turcotte because they didn't even give a team, so it could have been anyone.

Thread: Another Version

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>I would have thought that the swap of Arviddsen for a young player from your system would free up the necessary cap. Like I said, I’m just looking at team depth and team needs and see a pretty good fit between the two teams. Arvidssen is a nice player and I’d view him as a short term Bruin. He’s a nice one year flyer, but getting a second solid center prospect in the system would be the goal</div></div>

LA can't afford Ullmark's cap even with Arvidsson gone. The Kings made their bed and are probably stuck with what they have. Now with Vilardi & Kupari gone and Turcotte still a liability with injuries. I don't feel like Pinelli is available as he is the next big time center coming up.

Thread: Another Version

<a href="/users/Celtics21" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Celtics21</a> before the PLD trade I could have gotten behind a deal like this but now LA can't afford a big money goalie. It's minimum league average contracts for the Kings here on out.

Thread: trades that likely wont happen but id like

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RussianRangers9</b></div><div>my thinking is based on the kings win now mentality and with byfield being your 4th best center it gives value where value is due. hes amazing and i think hes worth a lot so i added a lot of value</div></div>

Byfield is the Kings #1LW right now. Nothing of that is valuable to the Kings. Jones would be fighting for 7th Dman, Carter is useless and I wouldn't want him back without multiple 1st attached, and Sykora is lucky to be a 6-10 prospect in LA. The 1st is the only good thing but it's a late pick and nothing good to move Byfield for.

Only thing of interest for LA is Tkachuk, Lundell or Knight. Other than that, nothing else works for LA.

I know it's not but it could be if a team is desperate for a youngish cheap RHD. Plus that Calgary 1st in 2025 could be a top 10 pick the way they are going

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>We'll be happy to take your 2023 second and 2024 third for Sean Durzi.</div></div>

This might be the only time we disagree but I'd take that deal with the 2023 2nd and 2025 1st.

Thread: DNVR Keeping the D

LA wouldn't give up Vilardi alone for that terrible offer. LA could just sign Nedeljkovic to that deal and keep Vilardi and Durzi. Not trading Durzi for a 33yr old goalie that's a UFA next year, a nothing winger that LA doesn't have a spot for. The 1st is nice but doubt LA can get one in a trade for Durzi.

Forum: Armchair-GMJun. 22, 2023 at 2:01 a.m.

Thread: Lets see it through

With the Gavrikov signing LA doesn't need a LHD especially a small expensive one. LA has no cap space for $5m 3rd pairing Dman. Durzi for Girard might be a fair swap as they have similar playing style and points but no way is LA adding Vilardi. Horrible trade for LA.

Forum: Armchair-GMJun. 20, 2023 at 4:46 p.m.

Thread: Filling out a roster

LA isn't trading Roy and it definitely won't be for a RHD as they are have way too many. You could probably get Durzi but not Roy.

What is the value for Pinto+Boucher? Or Boucher alone?

Thread: Swussi SZN

Wouldn't trade Vilardi alone for Ullmark. LA & Boston are two teams in cap trouble and probably aren't going to be good partners. Maybe and Iafallo for Ullmark deal be not Vilardi that they are building around.

Wrong! Kings decline. They can't take on an extra $4m. They barley have money to resign their own RFAs and zero money for a backup goalie. They need to get rid of cap to get a goalie.

Thread: Hanifin

Switch Hanifin for Zadorov and Kempe for Arvidsson. Take out the 3rd and the retention amd that deal should work. So...

Zadorov+Vladar for Arvidsson
