Thread: LA Kings Chychrun Nichushkin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Anus_McLeod</b></div><div>Unless Nichushkin has some connection to LA that no one knows about, he won't be taking that. Colorado will offer him at least that, and other teams might even go as high as in the sixes.

I do think LA should go after Chychrun. The price will be more painful than this, but I actually think they should still go for it.</div></div>

Agreed. Anyone who doesnt think we need a great LD this offseason probably over rates our UFA's or isn't aware we have the assets and cap space to make a splash for someone to be with us through the coming cup window. I am curious to see which top 6 wingers actually make it to free agency. Id pay Nichushkin up to 5.5AAV and have a 22 man roster to make it work. I also agree that Chychrun is going to be a bidding war and it will cost more get him. I just didn't want to here from other LA fans how much of an overpayment it would be. I would exchange the 2nd for a later pick, add anderson, and potentially switch the RD prospect besides Clarke. In terms of top-6 wingers who would you target with a 6 million AAV limit? I am not sure if a power forward penalty killer, or a sniper would work best with Kopitar and Kempe.

Thread: LA Kings ChychrunForsberg
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Welcome to CapFriendly in general and the cadre of hard-core Kings supporters in particular.

Matt Roy should be the last guy we're trading to "clear cap." We need him more than we need Iafallo. I'd be happy with Iafallo, Turcotte and our 2022 first for Chychrun, with maybe a little added, but those two deals give up too much for Chychrun and a pick only a few ahead of the one we've already got.</div></div>

Thanks! I should have been more careful with my words. Matt Roy is a very good roster player which is required for a Chychrun trade. I don't want to move an RD to the left so Walker or Roy should go and Walker would be very hard to move. If the Chychrun trade is an over pay in what should be a bidding war I would definitely switch Roy and Walker. Iafallo is a great player, but is basically being replaced with Forsberg. In the Iafallo trade they couldn't take on any salary so I just did picks instead of searching for LD or G prospects. Also this is mainly for fun realistically I see the kings getting Chychrun and a top 6 winger like Nichushkin while keeping Roy and Iafallo.
