I dont think he can be moved because of his NTC but Kopitar needs to be traded. I would bench him in a 2nd period first then sit him for a game. This guy has the C and he's completely given up, zero leadership, complete capitulation. If he wont snap out of it the pull the C.

even worse, i'd trade Kopitar mid-game just to mess up with his psyche

Here we go:

Carter + Luff for Necas + conditional 2nd
Toffoli for Puljujarvi + Russell (to make cap work) + 2nd (turns into 1st if Edmonton reaches western finals)
Muzzin For Liljejgrin
Martinez for whatever Buffalo will pay
Hagelin for a 3rd

Next year Roll with

Iafallo - Kopitar - Brown
Kovalchuk - Necas/Vilardi - Puljujarvi
Kempe - Vilardi/Necas - Lewis
Clifford - Rookie - Wagner

Rookie could be this year's first (please Hughes please), Kupari, Amadio or other

On D
Brickley- Doughty
Russell/Dion/Clague - Lilejgrin
Russell/Dion/Clague - Ladue/Fatenberg

That D does scare me but with the cap space saved maybe a UFA D can be brought in (Ceci) depending on cost

so we're finishing dead last again next year? good to know, i'll book my enema accordingly

If we could land Hughes and Lafreniere in back to back drafts...haha.

Of course you all know we'd finish last twice and pick 4th. THIS is true Kings fandom. 2012-2014 was just a brief interruption in a 50-year wet fart.

I miss the days when fans of other teams made up conspiracy theories about the league and refs being in the Kings' pockets. Back when the team was intimidating to play against, fun to watch, and successful.

Now they're the opposite of all of that.

I've been saying that was a blip for years now.

Only difference with the losing now v. then is they are a bunch of cucks out there.

It's censored. I'm talking dudes that watch their wives with other dudes. That's this team.

Any interest in Todd McLellan now he's available? Seen a Twitter post stating John Shannon saying Kings might be interested.



He's so good but we're so nice we'll let him out of his contract for a 3rd round pick.

If we land Hughes and go with the new NHL MO of getting younger and faster we can spread out the old age a little and ice this lineup next year with our space . Right wings can be interchangeable im more high on Kupari than others so idk.

Brown-Kopitar-Toffoli
Kovy-Hughes-Vilardi
Kempe-Carter-Kupari
Iaffalo-JAD-Luff
Wagner, Lewis

Muzzin-Doughty

I would not follow that person or John Shannon if that's the nonsense they're spewing.

It's been said that Desjardins is the interim coach at least until the end of the season, and the expectation is they are breaking in Marco Sturm to be a head coach eventually.

MAYBE McLellan is brought in after the season, but I think their long term sights as a head coach is Sturm.

Because a reporter is spinning his theories on radio about a team w/o a coach and a coach w/o a team? No, don't see it.

Sorry but Clague over Brickley? Brickley would get the first chance. Fantenberg shouldn't be resigned with the depth coming up and LaDue would still be there. It would look more like...

Iafallo--Kopitar--Brown
Kovy--Nylander--Hughes
Kempe--Carter--Vilardi
Wagner--JAD--Brodzinski
Luff, Amadio

Brickley--Doughty
Phanuef--Martinez
Forbort--LaDue
McDermid

Quick
Petersen

Kupari will come over next year but will start the year in the AHL. Muzzin, Toffoli, Clague will be traded for Nylander.

Brickley on the first pairing and Phaneuf on the second would guarantee us another 1st overall pick given we win the lotto pick

good thinking! i like your style :thumbu:

Desjardins has nothing to do with it. This general roster is 0-5 at home in the playoffs since June 13th, 2014.

There are a lot of things which have gone wrong, and since I'm using a mobile phone right now would take way too long.

WD isn't the problem at the moment, but he's not the answer.

Biggest problem is Blake wanting to change the identity of the team without realizing his coaching staff (Stevens) and his core might not be equipped for an identity change.

From 2008 to last season, the Kings have had a "tough to play against, defensive, strong on the boards" identity. They want to play a faster, up-tempo game and the players are struggling as a whole. Stevens was not the right coach for the job, but the players also need to be overhauled. The development staff and scouting staff also have to be reevaluated.

Blake and Robitaille had unrealistic expectations that this team can suddenly change their identity and be a contender.

It's a garbage, rudderless org from top to bottom.

I bet Kupari makes the team. This is his second year in LIGA. He has the ability, elite skating, size, has played defensive role (last year at 17 yrs of age)
and plays 200 feet and is even physical. I agree with not rushing prospects and it is almost always wrong with an 18 year old. But at 19 and all I
stated, if he shows he is ready in camp, he will make the Kings.

The Leafs deal...sounds about right....but would only make sense if the Kings could talk with him and get him signed...should hopefully
get one of their prospects back or a 3rd round pick. 22 year olds that have had 2 60+ point seasons are typically impossible to get.
Intersesting - the 20 goals 40 assists seasons are like Kopi's first season in LA...he had apx 20 goals and 40 asissts. Not in any way comparing the
2..just the numbers.
