Well... that answers my question of what's the deal with Matt Greene. He's not on the team anymore.

I believe Scuderi can be sent to Ontario and cost the Kings about $175k on the cap. That's nothing.

Yup sorry to see him go. Getting him (with stoll ) was the start of us going from non playoff team to cup champs. So maybe Bernstein isn't totally out in left field with us interested in Polak He does make sense now.

Appreciate what Greene contributed from 08-12, but just like with Richards and Stoll, there should have been no consideration whatsoever to re-sign him when his contract was up. Four years was just ludicrous.
The Kings were comfortable committing 10 years and about $45m to Greene and Richards after the 2014 season, just let that sink in.

I'm shocked, was thinking early retirement.
That must have been hard for Lombardi. Starting to put his money were his mouth is.

Todd McLellan is an inside agent
If we sign Polak or Schenn, I will lose my ****.
Gonna miss Greener, was so very important for the growth of this team.
Did not at all see this coming.

Dean sure loves his character guys. I fear that if there is a team willing to take Brown, Dean might hold back because of that.

Did you miss the change of captain thing? If any GM were willing to take Brown's contract, I think Lombardi would've drove him to the airport at this point with the same zeal that he had when he went to visit Richards in Canada in the summer of 2014.
I think Lombardi is still about loyalty(if the Kings were to win again, he'd probably bring everyone back again), but that belief has to be shaken up a bit after 14-15 and 15-16.

Reno Sucks!
As much as I don't like it, I fully expect them to do just that, it would seem that Hamhuis would be more financially attainable now (with about $7.8M in cap space before filling other spots with 6-figure players in Budaj, Gravel, Mersch, Dowd etc) that said, Hamhuis could already have a deal in place.

Sad day. Greene was one of my favorite players, a significant leader on this team. Missing 2 out of 4 years, though. Tough.
I'd like to see Matt have a role with the team after he retires.
