<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>The reward to the Kings for taking on Marleau's $6.25M cap hit would be Jeremy Bracco? Wouldn't Los Angeles be better off taking that money and signing Tyler Myers, and keeping the third-round draft pick?</div></div>
I here ya on Myers but LA is clearly going in a younger/rebuild direction so i cant see them being active in the UFA market as far as top UFAs go. LA is going to be on the buyout/trade market to get younger. So Toronto and LA would be natural trade partners. LA takes Marleau a 1.75 mill salary with a 6.25 cap hit for one year. So its a great deal for LA as they get a top prospect and only have to pay 1.75 mill for him. Cap hit means nothing to a rebuilding team.
