Kings

The only thing even remotely interesting to LA in that trade is Sean Farrell. The rest is useless.

Harris is a healthy scratch on the Kings. Monahan will be gone at the end of the season. Allen is worse and more expensive than what the Kings have already.

The Kings aren't trading PLD anytime soon. They're stuck with him for at least 4-5 more years.

If they don't trade him by the TDL his NMC clause kicks in and they are stuck with him for the duration of his contract.

Monahan can and probably would resign in LA for around 5 mil x 3 years.

Harris is better than you give him credit for he is easily better than Anderson and Englund and would be the Kings defacto 2LD.

The Kings already have been reportedly looking at acquiring Allen.

Edit*** I also said it was unlikely that the Kings moved him but the added benefit for them is to get out of a huge contract with a selfish player who is potentially causing a lockerroom rift

I wouldn't touch Dubois at this point. Too many red flags.
We don't need a selfish and unmotivated player signed for $68M. Wrong message to our other players.
Performance can vary while work ethic and motivation exist, but a lack of effort cannot be tolerated.
I'd take Gallagher over Dubois. You might not get many points and he may cost your team with dumb penalties, but his attitude is never in doubt.

Not if they buy him out. Also, his NMC drops to a 15-team NTC after his 5th year, hence the "4-5 more years" estimate.

Don't think Monahan is worth $5M. Not interested.

Harris is most definitely not better than Mikey Anderson. Anderson is going to be the Kings next captain when Kopitar retires. He's one of the premier defensive defensemen in the league. Harris also doesn't bring the truculence that Englund does, which is the only reason why Englund got the 3LD spot over Bjornfot in the first place.

The Kings have reportedly been looking at a goaltender, but even Friedman (who initially reported it) admits that it's probably not Allen due to the price tag.

This is exactly why I said I wasn't sold on him either but I personally don't see Dach as being able to be healthy for a full season (ever) so we need someone who can be healthy, at this point I might be willing to take just about anyone lol
