Nah we're good. Kempe is on track for 38 goals on a Kings team starving for goals, and Roy has been a staple for the team defensively with Walker and Edler out for the season. Kings are in a playoff spot, not sure our teams can help each other like we were during the rebuild.

Muzzin has a full NTC and he's not waiving it for LA, And Klingberg gets a better return then this.

i get you but it would be fun to see muz back here tho

Its the only team i think hed waive for

He just signed a new 4 year deal about a couple of seasons ago, can't see him waiving it now. But stranger things have happened.

Honestly, I believe Roy is better defensively than Muzzin and Kempe is $2M RFA goal-scoring machine. Muzzin is awesome and probably better overall than Roy, but he is declining, we know him and Doughty don't make a great pair, and his contract takes him to his mid-30s. I don't see it working, but I'll be rooting for him in Toronto during the playoffs.

Yea i know its a long shot but i think if any team itd be LA

Yea same well at least as long the the Blues, AZ (lmao), or LA arent in it

With his 17th goal tonight, Kempe leads the Kings in goal-scoring. We won't be trading him.

Roy has been our steadiest defenseman, night after night. We won't be trading him, either.

I don't think we'll even trade our #3 RD, Sean Walker, because I doubt that Brandt Clarke is ready and we need a depth RD behind Sean Durzi (for whom we thank you greatly).

not a leafs fan but your welcome all the same also what about ialfollo retaiened instead

I can definitely see him waiving it in the right circumstance. For a lot of guys the NTC isn't so much about needing to stay exactly where they are, but more so about having the say in where they end up. Now, he's got a family, so that's always a consideration, but he's got history and friends in L.A, knows the city, knows the players, played there a long time and they're looking like a competitive team right now. There're a lot of external factors to consider as well - taxes, weather, lifestyle, covid (a lot of people are really getting fed up with the way things are being handled in Canada and Ontario right now). These guys are human just like us and a lot of things play into a decision like that.

Im prone to forgetting that sometime they arent robots too

kempe would be great on the leafs but LA isnt moving him

Sonder if theyd move iafollio

nah LA is having a good season, they arent selling, which sucks because Iafollio would be a good fit too

Just give us a 2nd and Akil Thomas in the offseason. Need Muzz for the playoffs but need the cap space next year

1st Round Pick & Holl is a good start for Klingberg, but instead of the other draft picks, make it a prospect. One of Niemela, Robertson, Amirov, or Knies should be the target for Jim Nill & company

niemela isnt in the same boat as robertson or knies, and neither of them are in the same boat as amirov, the biggest prospect youd get out of the leafs in niemela
