Thread: Selling the future V2
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>The_Architect</b></div><div>IMO LA is not gonna do much this yr so I don't see Brown being that important to the team right now or the future for his stock to be inflated. Drouin at 26 might be worth adding to a young team, obviously if he gets better. And if he does, LA can still probably extend him at the most 5mill × 5 yrs. Baiscally I'm just saying it might be worth giving up Brown on his last yr for someone that can be in the top 6 for another 5-6 yrs.</div></div>

We’re already taking a risk that Arvidsson bounces back with a lower cap hit. Drouin is not the right fit for LA in a hockey trade. We’re better off looking to take a bad contract where we’re gaining another asset somewhere else. I personally don’t see Montreal as a good trade partner for what LA is trying to do and what they have available to move.

Thread: Get Carter
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>lebronisdagoat</b></div><div>thats not what im saying
jeff carter said he would retire if he ever got traded so he is trading danault to LA for nothing
and why bring kk into this lol i never mentioned him
danault&gt;carter</div></div>

I'm sick and tired of debunking this Carter rumor. It was randomly started by TSN, not Carter. He has gone on the record saying thats not true. From the Athletic:

" Jeff Carter emphatically denied that he’s considering retirement, squashing a rumor from earlier in the season that if the Kings dealt him, he would call it quits.

“I’m 20 games from 1,000, so I don’t think I’m retiring,” he said at the team’s getaway day Monday. “I got three years left on my contract. I want to be an L.A. King. I want to help change things around here, but I don’t have no-trade protection so whatever happens, happens. And I never talked about retiring either. Never came out of my mouth.” "
