What would it take for the Habs to land Toffoli from the Kings? He is an impending UFA.
Not going to BS you, the Kings FO will hold on to Toffoli until damn near the TDL in hopes his scoring picks up more and they're able to exact a 1st+ for him... A change of scenery to a team that wil require to score first will get likely get a top 6 forward.. As you can see, our Kings team is in transition and many players would be better off on teams that have playoff aspirations..
We aren't contenders, even less with Drouin out 2 months, Byron 1 month and Poehling not ready for the NHL. Keep the high pick and trade it at the draft (or even better, just draft another good prospect) for help next year when we'll be better.
Do you have any other names in mind?TT is not the guy I'd mortgage futures on.
The Habs have 12 draft picks in 2020... they can spare one to make a deep playoff run!
Deep playoff run? We are 20 games in and we've been really lucky injury wise (until now). Let's wait at the deadline before talking about a deep playoff run.
Don't see you guys getting a 1st for him, 1st +? forget it unless he scores 15 by trade deadline.Not going to BS you, the Kings FO will hold on to Toffoli until damn near the TDL in hopes his scoring picks up more and they're able to exact a 1st+ for him...

This is exactly what I wrote in my post.. The FO is keeping him until closer to the TDL to try and maximize his value which of course is tied to his production.. Should he have 15-20 goals by the TDL, he's netting us that 1st+, as it stands now we could get a 2nd +.. keep in mind he sucked ass last season and Boston was ready to give us a 1st... Of course, Boston has SC aspirations while MTL is trying to build and sustain a constant playoff contender.. So depending on the team's position heading into the playoffs, Toffoli can be anything from the missing piece to a SCup or at 27YO a piece worth trading for and signing LT to grow with said team..Don't see you guys getting a 1st for him, 1st +? forget it unless he scores 15 by trade deadline.
He's been pretty quiet over the last two seasons with only 43 points in 122 games with a -20 rating. The Habs might be willing to give a 2nd round pick + a prospect.

Boston wanted to give a 1st for him last year? God, you, as in your gm, should've taken that even tho that ended up the 30th pick...This is exactly what I wrote in my post..

Boston offered a 1st Blake insisted on them included Studnicka.. No deal was done.. The Kings seems to be targeting specific things, Jake woul dhave been our 3rd/4th line center this season if that trade would have gone down.. As for the source Tomd, one of the poster on our board posted it last season but I cant remenber who.. It was one of those wtf moments where anyone would have taken that but the Kings.. No idea why they didnt reallySource for that? And if true, wouldn't the Kings have been crazy not to take it? Best info we have right now is that Blake didn't get any compelling offers for any of the Kings players other than Muzzin (which is why they remain Kings today).
