LA is not trading Byfield for Laine. Turcotte or Vilardi maybe, but not Byfield. Move along.

Sujet: How to approach the off-season go for it all

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RoyBoy</b></div><div>It’s for one season but ok. We could easily give them more value. Just don’t want to overpay</div></div>

How do you figure it's only for one season? Kempe is a RFA next summer and the Kings will have exclusivity on those negotiations.

Kempe has been one of the best players for the Kings so far this season and is a key part of the rebuild. He's not going anywhere unless someone significantly overpays (1st round pick +). He's exactly the type of player the Kings want in their rebuild (fast, skilled, defensively responsible).

Sujet: Kings vs Blues

Clague looks decent. It's nice to see him getting some time on the PK. If he can stay responsible defensively (a big problem for him in Ontario) then I can see him as a mainstay on the Kings' roster.

MacDermid hasn't looked especially great this season. He's been defensively exposed a couple times due to being caught flat-footed and being just plain slow. He's taken a couple bad penalties as well, including one yesterday that cost the Kings a goal. I'm ok with bringing him into the lineup against heavy opponents that require some physicality, but with Clague playing as well as he is, I can't see MacDermid getting a significant number of games, especially now that Maatta satisfies the expansion draft exposure requirements already with the pro-rated game rule. MacD will get 6 more games for sure so that the Kings will have some exposure redundancy, but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't get much more than that.

Grundstrom is playing significantly better than last season. Even before today's goal, he has looked pretty good. Glad to see him turn it around. After last season, I wasn't sure that he would.

Sujet: Flipping Laine

Kopitar has a 24-team no-trade list and I guarantee Columbus is on it.

LA's 2021 1st round pick is not on the table. They wouldn't trade it for Laine 1-for-1 unless they somehow find themselves in playoff position at the trade deadline.

50% retention on Carter at the deadline would cost a 2nd round pick. No retention would cost a firm handshake (or COVID equivalent).

No he didn't. This is like the 100th time I've had to debunk this rumor. He flat out stared at the reporter and said "I'm not retiring. Those words never came out of my mouth."

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_Habs_fan</b></div><div>I think that’s realistic since a Canadian team wouldn’t give roster players since with the quarantine they’d have to wait a decent amount of time for PLD to arrive</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tsyls</b></div><div>Yeah that’s one thing people don’t think about.</div></div>

Laine is on IR and PLD is supposedly done in Columbus (TSN is reporting that the team told him just to stay at the hotel until further notice). A swap would give Laine ample time to recover from his injury while in quarantine.

Sujet: Jets in on PLD CBJ closing in on deal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tsyls</b></div><div>I appreciate the feedback. I personally don’t think PLDs value is higher just due to his situation, but I can understand why people think his is since he’s a C and other things.</div></div>

I don't disagree. Without the trade demand shenanigans, I think PLD would carry more value than Laine due to the extra year on the bridge deal. With the shenanigans, I think it becomes a 1-for-1 trade (i.e. Winnipeg no longer needs to add).

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 8:27 pm

Sujet: Jets in on PLD CBJ closing in on deal

I honestly think it will be a Laine for Dubois 1-for-1. There's enough suitors for PLD that his shenanigans won't lower his value.

Winnipeg desperately needs a center and Columbus desperately needs some top-line scoring. Both players are the same age and on bridge deals. If anything PLD's value is a bit higher because he has an extra year at a reasonable salary, while Laine is going to get a payday this summer.

Sujet: Would This Be Enough for DuBois

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Thanks for the input. I'll keep that in mind.

I should have thought to make the first "top-5 protected."</div></div>

More reasonable. I just don't know if they're going to be any better next season. I think playoffs are 2 seasons away. I'm hesitant to trade the 2021 or 2022 1st round picks.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I would trade him before Vilardi. I wonder if my fellow Kings adherents have any input on that.</div></div>

Depends on the trade value. I would imagine that Turcotte holds more trade value than Vilardi does due to his age, contract status, and recent WJC performance. So if it's Turcotte + Thomas + 2nd vs Vilardi + Thomas + 1st, then I would do the former. However, if it's the same trade with Turcotte swapped out for Vilardi then I'd probably trade Vilardi before Turcotte.

Sujet: Would This Be Enough for DuBois

I would not trade the 2021 1st for PLD unless it were 1-for-1.

One or the other, but not both. Can fill in with lesser prospects or draft picks, but no way is LA giving up both Vilardi and Turcotte.

Kings aren't trading a likely top 5 overall pick for PLD.

Kings wouldn't make that trade and take that awful contract, even if Carter wasn't playing well.

Forum: Armchair-GMTue at 2:58 pm

Sujet: Future Kings

Not a fan of Mikey Anderson? He's the furthest along of the young Kings defensive prospects right now. Probably a better option than Kempny.

I'd probably re-sign Brown to a 2 year deal before I gave a contract to Armia. He's not going to be a top-six winger at age 38, but he'll be a fine option for the 3rd or 4th line.

There's better options for the 4th line than Goodrow as well. Lias Andersson is the first name that comes to mind. Nasty with some offensive upside. Grundstrom is also an option. He had a much better training camp this year compared to last.

Aside from that, move Akil Thomas to 3RW and put Anderson-Dolan at 4C and you have yourself a fine looking team.
