Adrian Kempe

California says no thanks and have a better rest of the day

I think people need to realize how well the King's goaltending tandem has played, in fact both Rittich and Talbot have been much better than Saros (one of his career-worst years) this season.

The Kings need to see more from their goalscorers like Kempe and Arvidsson (who has been sidelined up until 3 games ago). I think the Kings biggest area of weakness isn't goaltending anymore it's probably a 3LD or another defense-oriented/shutdown bottom 6 player (which Lizotte will can assist on when he returns from LTIR).

I hear you. But what about the value? Would be interesting to hear your opinions solely on that.

How long before you get banned from the state of California?

If LA needs to buy a goaltender, Blake has burned a lot and is already on thin ice after PLD and firing his head coach who the team is paying. The King need to find an improvement over Rittich (0.919 SV% / 2.25GAA) or Talbot (0.911 SV% / 2.58GAA) who collectively cost less than $2M against the Cap. If they moved one, I think they would move Talbot for Saros 50% retained, the problem is the Kings will likely not move any of their big contracts as they need those players for the deadline. So I would offer 1st, Grundstrom, Spence for Saros 50% retained. And if that's not enough, that's ok, because the Kings aren't desperate at net like other teams. The biggest problem is, Saros doesn't look good, so I'd rather keep rolling with the Kings tandem as it is.
