I wonder what that hell the Avs are going to do in free agency, no news on talks with players today. Seems like they will stand pat until the Stastny situation shakes out, which means they'll probably miss out on good players.

Gaborik gets his retirement contract. His health will always be suspect but the Kings don't need him to carry the offensive load.

We're betting all on developing players. Which is why I think Bigras has a chance to come up this season if Benoit doesn't sign.

I figured with NHL Gaf's love of Dustin Brown they would appreciate this King's blog reaction to him winning the Messier award: http://www.jewelsfromthecrown.com/2...wn-wins-the-mark-messier-nhl-leadership-award

Elliott is no longer on a 2-way contract so he would probably play.

Or be traded. Cause he's never looked good. Barrie does what Elliott wants to do but can't.
We also have Siemens who could be solid. Hishon could solve some wing issues depending on what happens with Stastny and OReilly.

Elliott is totally expendable with Barrie, Siemens hasn't been that great yet though (he did have a concussion). I doubt he makes the team next year. I liked what I saw from Hishon in the playoffs, I was hoping he'd be on the team even if we retain Stastny and O'reilly.

Round 2: Selleck, Cosby, Getzlaf
Apoc, their faces have to be at that angle for this to work. Tried to use your avatar image, sadly that was not effective.
Haha hell yes, if I don't have this switched out by Friday then I will try and remember to switch it. thanks

Quick had his wrist surgery the other day. (Injured against the Ducks)
Green resigned for 4 years at 2.5m
Gabbo resigned for 7 years at 4.9m
Matisyahu wrote a new song on his new album in hopes the Kings would win (Not my style but..)
Willie is the only question mark left for next season.

That song is garbage
It will. They all do.

Can I get a Kuznetsov one?
He's seriously not giving Weaver an offer?
Not sure they'll find a better deal under 1.5m, and I don't see them spending money on a top 4 guy unless one of Gorges, or Emelin is traded
, or Subban.
Guy from La Presse said today no offer was going to be made. I guess things could change, but I think Bergevin is aware the D needs an upgrade in the top 4.

This year is going to suck again, only good part will be watching the kids.
Like that youuuuung whippersnapper Danny Boyle! Enjoy
That won't be very fun either when Nyquists shooting % returns to human levels.
:lol according to LeBrun, the Habs were going to look into Boyle if they didn't sign Markov. Dodged a bullet there.

Hey, 37 is pretty dang young for us.
True, but he is still a complete beast along with Tatar, Teletubby, and Jurco.
one of which will be traded to bring in an aging over the hill forward knowing Holland

You'll be forgetting he's in the KHL with his brother sooner rather than later.
worked well for the Kostitsyns! Wouldn't surprise me to see Bergevin take a run at him to be honest.
Yep. I think he played two games before getting hurt for the year.
...Whatever. Our 2014-15 roster is incredibly pitiful. This has got to be rock bottom here. In two days, we get Reinhart. Throughout the year, we'll probably see a few more prospects get promoted to Buffalo. 2015 McDavid/Eichel or someone good at least.

Wasn't there a source saying Gardiner + JVR + 8th was NOT enough to get 1st overall? Yeah.....
Are Ekblad and Reinhart/Bennett even projected to be 1D or 1C respectively?
Coldnoodle
Member
I wouldn't do that :lol
If it's Gardiner+Gauthier+8th for 1st+Kulikov I'd take it and run.
Then draft Reinhart to be future 1C.
It's definitely up there
Gardiner is good/great now. Kadri was great but going through a sophomore slump. That 8th OA could be a magic pick.
Too much risk and we potentially lose right out the gate and never make it up.
On HF people are suggesting it would take rielly and gardiner like looooooooool
Why not just add kessel too?

Gabbo being resigned for seven years is generating more comments and activity on Kings' blogs than entire playoff games did.
This seems fair... is Kadri's name supposed to be in there, too? Cause then It wouldn't be fair for the Leafs anymore.

I'd like for them to have Reinhart too brah. Nonis doesn't seem like someone who could pull off a trade like that though. We'll see.
Smellies might be advancing!!!
If it was just gardiner i'd piss and moan a bit because I think he's eventually going to be one of the best dmen offensively, we would have a chance to win the trade. (if ekblad becomes a god)
But no way do we win if it's kadri and gardiner. Ever.
This is a sad day for equality.
