reasons why Kings make this deal
they have called up Sean Walker from Ontario where he was lighting it up 20GP 6G 11A 17P +6 18PIM
didn't call him up to watch ... need to move Muzzin or Alec Martinez for him to get ice time
Kings would rather keep Martinez because he's signed for 2 more years which takes him to Seattle expansion draft (Muzzin only signed for 1 more year)
As far as the return goes ... while not strictly part of the deal you could include Sherbak as part of the return in a trade with Montréal
in which the Kings get their entire 4th line for less than they would have to pay Muzzin for the rest of this year and next as well as an 8th pick in next years draft
as well as reclaiming 1M+ against the cap which they are right up against ... not a bad return for making a move that you had to in order to get Walker on the ice.
Kings are going to be active in the trade market ... likely already getting calls on Toffoli and Clifford; could also be interest in Trevor Lewis after he gets off IR
