Value of: Tyler Toffoli to Boston

[tomd]

Not at all. If blake doesn't get offered anything decent, he wont move toffoli, why should he? He will wait on the next wave of youth and for our core guys to turn their games around.

Exactly correct. And that should be your expectation. If I'm Blake watching Toffoli every night, I'm very tempted to move him for a lateral player just to get him off the team.

i would be surprised if toffoli couldnt get a first round pick and a decent prospect

Some GMs do not have that luxury. Kings are in LA which is a big sports market. They have had recent success I am sure there owner would like a fast turn around. NOT saying that my offers of players would make the Kings better or ownership would make him pull the trigger on a less deal.

Other side LA has had success with Dodgers, Lebron is there with the Lakers, Chargers and Rams are doing well. Dont think a successful Kings team would be all that important.

Then again....................Playoffs are money and I am sure the owner wants that

Also look at it like this Nash got the Rangers a 1st, good prospect and a decent roster player at the deadline. I am sure IF they wanted the Kings could get something like that or better for a younger TT

I wouldn't use that description for what the Rangers got.

They got a player that was struggling to maintain 3C duties on the Bruins who was PP dependent (already moved by NYR too), a demoted player producing sub 0.5 PPG in the AHL making $3.8m and a late 1st.

Be careful what you wish for lol

Lock it up then. Boston’s 1st is going to be too late and they likely don’t want to move Donato or Heinen

Says who? I would move both of them over Carlo.

I would include Heinen and a prospect for Toffoli.

 

[SPV]

Donato, Zboril, and a 3rd or 4th round pick for Toffoli & Clifford

Well I'm glad you're not running the team.

 

[deaderhead28]

No. We can’t afford a salary return. Perhaps you’ve noticed some waiver claims on our part this week? We have to take a mid to low first when it comes to players such as Toffoli. Salary returns lower the value of the trade.

Kings arent rebuilding so yes a quality player needs to be involved in one or more deals.Blakes not blowing the team up but simy getting rid of dead weight and retooling.

As a Kings fan... I think the rebuild is coming. That could change if we somehow turn this around by the start of February... but about their current play gives us any hope for that. One of the Kings insiders was saying that the only safe people are Kopi, Doughty, and Brown. He thinks Quick will be gone too.

Toffoli, Carter, Kovalchuk, Muzzin, Martinez, Hagelin, Thompson, and Quick are all players who I think have the best chances of being moved at the deadline. Quick could be a move that’s made at the draft. Maybe a few other players like Clifford, Fobort, and Lewis could be moved.

That same Kings insider said Cliffird isnt moving and Kings arent rebuilding their retooling.Of course all players are tradable depending on value they get back including Doughty.Blake and Luc have the blessing of ownership to right the ship.They'll indeed try to move some pieces to free up cap to fix the roster.Bernstein said he doesnt think ownership wants to go thru another rebuild.Dont get excited over those who want a rebuild,at this present time it's not happening according to insiders.
