Demko's gonna get wasted here in my opinion, his value is extremely high, take advantage of that and get a good young player. But yeah, sure, a pick would be nice too!

I agreed, but I feel his value is higher than Byfield and a cap dump. Esp if we ae sending Hogger as well.

Podkolzin can become a serviceable player IMO, but right now, he's hot garbage. The play just dies with him continually. He works his tail off but he accomplishes absolutely nothing out there right now!

Hoglander is fine for a second round pick, he contributes and works hard. Rathbone has skill but he needs to learn to play his position better to be an effective NHL'er. Boeser is always hurt but he does have four 20 goal seasons in five years, scoring goals in the NHL isn't easy, he's a poor mans Mark Stone, another 20 goal poor skater.

I'm going to check Buffalo to see how many kids they have 25 years old or younger on their team that they've drafted.

He is a way better defender and playmaker.

JTM has no trade protection this season, NYI sniffing around?

They're looking at someone apparently.

Likely Horvat.

That would be ironic, Lou traded him 9th OA (Horvat) to VAN for Schneider.

Tough to get a read. Either Horvat wants out and is playing as such to attract a trade or he is telling mngt right now he is worth every penny he wants. Crazy pace and 30 goals scorers do make over 7 mil per lol

He may have already tossed the towel in lol no way he is this bad. Has to be mental as well. Just frame of mind. Demko 'should' be the franchise goalie we have been banking on. Can't see him being moved.

Spencer Martin now 2-0-1, for 5 points on the season, equaling a points earned % rate of 62.5.

I don’t believe in that blanket statement. Each circumstance is unique unto itself. In this scenario I think you have a goaltender in his prime (Demko) who fits in rather nicely with the current state of affairs in Los Angeles for the Kings. Quick is done, the team is definitely on the upswing, they have a great prospect pool, Petersen is struggling….it just makes sense. To me!

Most, if not all of them, came after captain Bo called a players only meeting.

Marek: “As they say, the only leverage you have in a negotiation is if you have the ability to walk away. And if you’re Bo Horvat, there are what Elliotte, about 30 other teams, 31 other teams that would want Bo Horvat on their squad.”

RD suggests "some agents aren't happy right now"

Won't get into details.

Hear VAN had some conversations recently which got heated.

I think it's unreasonable to send a player like Demko to a divisional rival.

Thought communication was supposed to improve without Benning?


Rutherford didn’t know Boudreau’s contract details

Now heated discussions with players’ agents
