The Score reported what i posted above, but now have added Helge Grans (LA) to Philly; La will send a second round pick to Philly as well. Kings will also get Kevin Connauton and Hayden Hodgson

Grans stalled out last year after looking decent at Ontario in 21/22. He was behind Spence and Clarke, though, so that RHD logjam is getting cleared out with him going east. Wonder what's the year on the LAK 2nd?

Happy to see the back of both those guys. Walker was never the same after the injury, but he was steady(ish) beforehand. Could get some bottom pairing minutes in Philadelphia. As for Petersen, shame that it went south like that.

Philadelphia trades Ivan Provorov and Hayden Hodgson to Los Angeles in exchange for Calvin Petersen, Sean Walker, Helge Grans and the Kings’ 2024 second-round pick. Columbus acquires Kevin Connauton from Philadelphia in exchange for a 2023 first-round pick (22nd overall) and conditional second-round pick in either the 2024 or 2025 NHL Draft. Columbus acquires Provorov from Los Angeles in exchange for Connauton.LA retains 30% of Provorov's salary.

So Toronto adds to their defensive woes by trading for someone who can't play defense. Love it.

I don’t think EK will thrive in a pressure cooker market. He thrives when there is zero pressure

Leafs dont have a major prospect, Knies is not a starter in any trade, Thats a suicide trade. Karlsson sucks on d
