that's not enough unless the draft pick is left unprotected (which I doubt it would be).

It starts with Vilardi. LA ain’t gonna give Turcotte, or Byfield, so yah starts with Vilardi.

Think of a prospect/very young Nhler (Vilardi?), then add a 1st and the conversation is started.

Laine is not coming to LA. Pronman just finished rating Fagemo as the 2nd best prospect in the Kings system after Byfield. He's not being traded.

I could see the Kings offering a Top 10 protected 2021 1st, Turcotte, and Clague. Winnipeg will say no and both parties will hang up the phone.

Also, absolutely no way to Duclair on anything longer than a 1 year deal. That guy has washed out of 5 different teams already. Huge red flags.

Any deal sending Laine to LA starts with Vilardi and then some.
