Blackwood wasn't really lights out last season with a 0.893 SV%

def not, especially with his injuries. His best game may have been against Seattle, he was astounding.

As far as budget moves I think they will look for Murray (Kings new goaltending coach developed him), Stolarz (division rival, who actually looked pretty strong), or maybe Alex Lyon.

With 4 RFA's needing contracts, Byfield/Kaliyev being eligible for extensions you guys gotta move Arvidsson and maybe another player for some cap room

Possible, but remember the Kings got to the trade deadline in a playoff spot with Copley as their starter, they just need to make it to the trade deadline with two goalies, I don't see Blackwood being a world breaker for LA. If we can get a Andersen, Hill, Ullmark, or similar type of #1 goalie, we'll move Arvidsson, otherwise let's just go with a budget goalie until the deadline.

Blackwoods gonna have a hard time demanding a contract and could come cheap, he really doesnt have any leverage other than his RFA status but his stats as of late have been shakey. That said hes a solid depth goalie and could shock some people not to the level of a championship but steal a couple of close games

Possible, but if Matt Murray is bought out that will LA's guy. We have his old goaltending coach, he's had deep playoff runs, and would take the minimum salary we need.

2nd round pick is fair but Minnesota has zero Mon to pay him
