No way they move Muzzin for a rental.

Martinez is decent but Muzzin>>>>>>Martinez

He's still not a very good defenseman. Everything has been masked being on Pittsburgh. At that price here he'd look like the Schultz of Edmonton. Also last year was 14 games with a back injury now he's concussed.

I think he could fit as a #3-4. Young still. Good on the PP. Maybe 5 is a lot

5 for 25 for Justin Schultz. Who says yes.

39 points. 8 EV goals. Good underlying numbers.

Would fit nicely on pair 2 with McCabe

Very risky. I tend to agree with DD that most of what we're seeing out of him is a result of a very strong 5 on 5 team surrounding him. You'd probably be asking more out of him here and im not certain he could handle that. If the first pair got the mother of all shut down guys then maybe.

They've flipped in terms of role and value it looks like. Martinez has the kind of numbers muzzin has had over the years.

that might be too much for a player whom a defensively challenged oilers team traded away

I'd be pretty happy to get either of them but I can't see the Kings trading a top 4 D before the playoffs

why not just wait until the off season?...no need to be trading away "lots more" for one of two d-men who may be more a product of the system, goaltending and being paired with doughty

For someone that doesn't watch a lot of Kings hockey, how good is Muzzin?

I know he is good but really is he a top pairing guy is what I am asking.

At 5 per you'd be on him like you are Bogo.

Not a shot at you just saying. You'd hate him at that price.

unless it's one of their top prospects, preferably on defense, that doesn't sound like a good trade to me

This year, I'm using the Sabres 1st round pick for a real defenseman that fits in with the rebuild.

Agreed. Muzzin is a quality player, but using Kane to get him doesn't help this team.

I heard Murray is making ZERO offers


Just telling the other teams he is open for business and waiting for gm's to contact him with offers


nothing has wowed him


I heard the same thing about 10 days before the deadline last season, mike weber was caps contacting murray
