I'd say second line center as a ceiling, but probably more a 3rd line center. He's still young (22), still waiver exempt on his ELC, RFA without arbitration rights at the end of this season, he's really progressed each year since the draft. He's reached the point where he is a clear every day NHLer, but there isn't much room down the middle in LA (Kopi, Danault, one day Byfield (hopefully). I think he's really started to show his talent this season as a more everyday player. I think he would be better with more consistent linemates however, as Kaliyev and Grundstrom have both been hurt for chunks of time, and JAD, Lemiuex and Vilardi have all moved around the lineup as well. He's also been sent down a little this year because JAD isn't waiver exempt while he is.

Walker needs to prove that he is coming back from injury. Iafallo also is recovering from an injury, and fell off at the end of the season. More importantly, it's a lot of cash the Kings are asking another team to free up for them. I don't think they could get a 1st for the pair. I think they need to throw in a pick just to get a 2nd and a 4th back.

We'll see about Mikey Anderson's deal.

I think if you're looking at potential of the 3 centers AZ would look at, it is 1. Turcotte, tied for 2. Kupari &amp; Vilardi. For those guys where they are currently and whether they are NHL ready, I think it's 1. Kupari, 2. Vilardi, 3. Turcotte. I think Blake balks at Turcotte being included and they settle on Kupari.

Andersson was on the NHL roster all season, is still considered by some to be a legitimate prospect, and again, is arbitration eligible. Those guys may not get raises, but whether they do or not, I don't think it changes much here. Maybe the money to Edler or Mikey increases.

Mikey Anderson isn't arbitration eligible yet, I don't think he gets a big raise yet.

I think Andersson, Vilardi, and Anderson-Dolan get some increases. They've each spent time on the NHL roster and in the case of Andersson, he's arbitration eligible, which always leads to some bump. I don't think the Kings are ready to cut bait on him yet.

Lemieux's QO is my mistake, although just because a QO is made doesn't mean they couldn't take less (although usually with term). I don't think he gets a raise because I don't think he was worth what the Rangers paid him. He should be 1.65. - *FIXED*

I think they still resign Edler. I think they want a more veteran presence and were happy with what they got from him. I think they want more seasoning from Bjornfort, and are happy they can still push him through waivers.
