Yup, agreed.
And if Penner manages a bit of a rebound, give him a 1 year MacArthur contract.

MAc for Penner + Prospect..

Seems like the typical Burkey Deal.

See, there's the problem! I thought ASP and BIG were the same!

Asp is capable of insights from time to time. When he sets aside the sarcasm.

if the play as they never get any better than they have been the last 4 yrs, still a huge bargain.

The only risk is if they're game falls off, or injury, but to a team with money that isn't as big of a risk.

Look at Mike Richards... he's on pace for 40 pts. Carter is on pace for 30-ish.

Meh.

Edit: But regardless, I'd be curious to see Jeff Carter with Cole and Pacioretty on the wings.

In Richards defense, he's been the one of the only ones going in LA, and sees half of his plays result in a puck hitting the boards rather than mesh. He's one of the few that LA fans AREN'T freaking out about, haha.

The Kings are the team who scored the less goals so far this season. Not sure wtf is up with them.

They play too... safe? I notice it when watching JJ and DD that they rarely pinch and the two don't push the offense from the back nearly as much as they should. I think it's a design in the system though, because JJ is "Mr. Pinch-Happy"

If it comes down to that, it's fine. If it comes down to NYI vs NJ... We're screwed.

I'd actually love Stoll, personally. Penner would even be an upgrade.

No but I wonder if they get swept out west if he will.

they need a minimum 4 of 6 points out there. Problem is they're showing a complete lack of ability to fight for that road point, as most recently demonstrated against the Jets and Flyers. Not even coming close in the dying minutes.

Why not? Two expiring contracts for two long ones, at least one guy who'd be more effective at his role than what's being given up, and a pretty decent prospect.

Give up Mac, sure, but gotta make room on the wings anyways... And he's not the driving force behind his line.

Next year, you get >10M in cap space.

LA gets the improvement on the wing... But really, I'm not sure why they'd do the deal.
