David Beckham to the galaxy happened ! And they won the mls cup this year ! However only myself and like 3 other people know or care about! LOL
Hard to say because Gretzky's trade was for expanding the game to the west coast and to give hockey national recognition. It's a matter of what big name wants to play for the Kings. We can't just pay someone if their heart isn't in it.
Kopi is a SUPERSTAR!!!!
Agreed
No doubt about that but we need a guy that can score 50 goals and get 100pts.
I miss the 86-93 Kings when the offence was insane🍻
He was , well past his prime now..
@@bearcookie13he is 1 point behind Kempe, who is in his prime.
He is but he’s not a Crosby, McDavid, Yzerman, Lemieux, Ovechkin, Sakic. At no point in his career has anyone said “he’s hands down the best player in the league”. He’s a Robitaille. The best of those second/third tier players.
Kings could go out and sign Auston Matthews and it would be a big deal in the NHL community for a hot minute and the rest of the sports community would go, "who is that again?"
Oh my friend - it would be HISTORIC!!! I take Matthews over McDavid every day of the week and twice on... what's today? oh yeah monday
Basically, the Kings need Gabe Vilardi...lol...that PLD trade is an albatross around Blakes neck.
I agree, give Fagemo 10 games and see what he can do!
And play him where? With who?? He will skate 9 minutes on the 3rd or 4th line. It will be irrelevant.
Kings must do whatever it takes after Kopitar to add McDavid or Auston Mathews, that will be the power move
Matthews? We already have a loafer in Fiala!
@@bearcookie13
“Loafer”……awesome
I'd rather go after like a Nylander. Probably would be easier to acquire, but what am I saying? I wouldn't be mad at McDavid 😂
Even tho none of this happening but hey those are power moves lol
@ I love Nylander and I would love for him to join the Kings but if we’re talking about earth shattering trade or signing then McDavid or Mathews lol
Great contents Eddie
Kings need to sign or trade for a big name and young one too so we can win more cups
Sign Moose next season
Kopitar plays defence luca doesn't
Wow, going to be hard to sign many players when the salary cap in 27-28 season hits $13.5 million! 😁 Kings will probably still be paying Kopi and Doughty that much then! 🤣 Guessing you meant $113.5 million? 🤑
If the kings try for a big trade, who should they try for?
Well we passed on Mikko so is hard to guess where Blake's is at...
No they will not. Kings brass have no understanding of the LA market. Dr. Buss always understood superstars sustain you in the down years and make you generational fans in the championships years. That's why the Kings never capitalized even in the Cup yrs to today. 99 was their lone superstar in their existence.
Exactly. People in LA pay attention to big names and exciting plays. Not “sound defensive hockey”. But no, we’re stuck with a defensive identity for the next 20 years.
I’m ready for offensive hockey in La. I’m honestly bored of this defensive style the last 15 years.
86-93 was awesome!!!
There's an old saying: "Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships" But I do agree with you we need more offense.
Not with Blake as GM lol
They don’t need another Gretzky. They need a smart acquisition at the right time. They need an acquisition that LITERALLY wins them the Stanley Cup. Marion Gaborik in 2014 won the LA Kings the 2014 Stanley Cup. Just the truth. Find a way to aquire Evander Kane. Different type of player but that’s who we need.
Are teams allowed to spend more than the cap with cash penalties if not how can you say AEG Hasn't done all it can to win
No they’re not. It’s why the NHL has the most parity amongst all major sports.
I say no to brock
kings simply dont have the same capital
Kings need to draft a Gretzky.
No # 11 for the LA Kings is bigger then Luca.
The same guy that hasn’t scored in 12 games?
Keep thinking that and we will continue to miss or get knocked out in the 1st round. 2012 and 2014 seasons are old news
Perhaps Mcdavid, Mackinnon, or Makar.
Just seen Rust from Penguins possibilitie
Dodgers and Lakers S tier while the kings mentality is scarcity.. let's live on razors edge. 8th ,9th seed....
I think the kings should get Brock Nelson never mind Brock besser Eddie leave him were he to
EDDIE! BUDDY! Have you finally come around? First let's take the Gretzky trade. He met and fell in love with Janet a Hollywood actress. Since she wouldn't move to Edmonton (why would she?) He had to come to L.A. But he brought Paul Coffey (one of the TOP 10 defensemen of all time) and Marty McSoreley (muscle that we needed). Any NHL player should be happy to play in the 2nd biggest market in the world. Now I will admit that when you mentioned McDavid becoming a free agent and a possibility - I threw up in my mouth a little bit. However, Matthews was out a dozen games due to injury. Everyone in the NHL knows that no one has a better "work ethic" than Auston. He's a California boy, we have 2 Toronto stars on our roster: Q.B. + Doughty + a #1 draft choice for Mathews. They boost up a defense that's allowing 3 ppg, get to develop a potential star, and a #1 pick to boost whatever else they need. For Fks sake! They havent won a cup since you've been alive Eddie!! One or 2 more years to rebuild ain't gonna kill them. But we need a sniper now. Last point - there are 3 Leafs with more points than Matthews right now; however none with a higher ppg average in their team or OURS!! Blake - MAKE THE CALL. The worst thing that can happen is they tell you to F - off, and it wouldn't be your first time.
I don't let Blake make anymore deals. Hasn't he done enough damage? Kings need complete reset and philosophy of how to play hockey. 2-1 games are the thing of a past.
Kings should have traded for Messier. We got the wrong Oiler.
They do it that big again I hope it's for a goaltender
Like who? I like that Dustin Wolf kid in Calgary. Not a blockbuster deal, but he’s got skills and he’s a rookie. I believe his contract is up next year.
