the team that Bedard plays for needs to have at least one skill guy on his line and one tough guy on the roster. It will be a preresiquite. Who the GM moves might surprise you. The priority is Bedard's success. Even if he gets only 50-60
points his rookie season.

Bedard with Kane (skilled guy) and trade for Brady Ktachuk ( skilled and tough)….

I can dream eh….

Exhale….

Sure I'd do that. Bokk and a conditional 2nd would be fine by me. Becomes a 1st if Toews signs an extension or the Canes win the cup.
- BINGO!

Bokk is afraid of hits, playing with line mates...keep him.

Thta's Pronman's boy before he ended up traded to Carolina, and Corey was of course wrong b/c he read the real scouts incorrect press clippings...

I think towes to Carolina 50% retained for Suzuki or different prospect and 2023 2nd or 2024 2nd seems fair trade imo.

Ryan Reaves is a free agent this Summer. I'd love to see Reavo out there protecting the youth movement over the next few years. Since the Hawks will need to hit the cap floor with at least one bloated contract, Reaves might be willing to endure a rebuild if the price is right.

Yo LA, I see Byfield was lined up with Kopitar and Kempe last night. This a new thing?

Been at least a month. Started when Kaliyev and Moore got hurt. Kings wanted to give him minutes in the top 6. If he does well, he will stay a winger, otherwise he plays 4th line minutes at center.

Kings have no qualms moving centers to wings, Kemp’s and Villardi are best examples currently.

IMO Turcotte will have to make it with the Kings as a winger, you have Kopitar, Danault Lizotte entrenched as the top 3 for a few more years.

LA, Do you have any info on Kings winger prospect Sam Fagemo? I read he's a high energy guy, a good forechecker, and has offensive upside. This fits the profile of KD type players. A while back there were McCabe to Los Angeles rumors. Just wondering if Fagemo could be part of the return.

I wasn't even aware of the kid and had to look him up. Signed in March of 2022.

I dunno maybe this KD guy kinda knows what he's doing.

I'm sure if this kid gets another start and wins another game he'll be sent back down to Rockford for further development, hahaha

Fegamo was supposed to make the team out of training camp but didn’t have a good pre season. Since being called up has demonstrated all the attributes you mentioned.I can see a McCabe for Fergamo trade. Kings are shots of LD, have a plethora of right handed defenseman.
