thats a steep price i dont think they are gonna do it

but hey wat do i know imma canucks fan

Check out the one I posted moments ago. Let me know what you think.

LA shouldn't trade Clarke, at the same time, I think they could well have made a good package without him.

I doubt that we would do that, but if we did, I'd bet you wouldn't be getting both draft picks.

They'll probably do this in the offseason so in case the pick is a lottery pick. Also, trade is a little steep but somewhat plausible

I like this trade for both sides, LAK don't need a 1RD for the foreseeable future with Doughty. Plus, Roy and Walker are on good contracts and serviceable in their current roles. Durzi is a good 7D.

But...

I could see AZ being more interested in Turcotte and Bjornfot/Anderson instead of Clarke and Kupari. They have Soderstrom and Timmons for the right side, it's the left side that's weaker.

I would rather have quality over quantity for prospects. I like Kupari and Vilardi, but would rather get one as secondary piece with a true blue chip prospect

Fair, but Coyotes have the luxury of setting the asking price. If it gets into a bidding war then all bets are off

I wouldn’t mind that, but there’s not a true “blue chip” piece in that deal. I like Andersen and Bjornfoot but I think they’re top 4 defensemen at best. I want a piece with the potential to be the top of the lineup player like Chychrun was for us last year. You can figure out the balance on the backend later (Moser looks promising on the left side, Timmins has injury issues that have affected his development)

Fair, like I mentioned, it does make sense for both sides. I do think he goes to the Kings and I also think the Kings should do everything in their power to acquire him. They can only play so many players, at some point they have to trade some prospects to get bigger pieces or because there's nowhere to put them in the lineup.

I agree with what you said. Also for me, it has to be Clarke. I think about him in the same sense Krebs was in the Eichel deal; unavailable at first but will have to be included for it to happen. I could live without the 2nd, though.

I did some proposals yesterday and the options are this one or Turcotte, Björnfot and 1st. The latter makes less sense as Björnfot is a LD and LA need those. Also, I'm not a big fan of Turcotte and there wiil be plenty of C options for us in the upcoming drafts, so no need to trade for him as the highlight of a package. Of course Clarke+ is more steep, but the price will be steep.

Also, they have more depth at RD (Faber, Grans, but also at the roster), so at least to me Clarke seems like the sensible one to trade even if he is the best.
