Can you guess why the kings have these players? They got them because of a trade which happened in 1988, the Gretzky trade.

So anyways, they got Gretzky, and they also got Marty Mcsorley. And more or less, LA traded him , then they got him back (same trade pretty much) and traded him again, with Jari Kurri for a package that included Matthias Norstrom. Norstrom was then dealt for a package including a 2008 first (28th overall), which was then traded for other pick which were also traded and somehow they got a 2009 3rd, which traded eventually for a second in 2015 (Erik Cernak), which was traded Ben Bishop and a 5th, and then Bishop was dealt for a 4th (both in 2015). The 5th turned into Rysma, and the 4th turned into Phillips. Now, maybe it's just me, but it blows my mind how a trade 32 years ago is still going. There is a lot more the the Greztky trade then this. I recommend you what this https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/nhl-trade-tree-gretzky-trade-still-evolving-today/, the steve dangle gretzky trade tree. It's very interesting. Merry Christmas.
