2024-25 Season Thread

They traded Necas but kept Jarvis. I actually like both those guys, and neither was very old. Not sure why Carolina can't put it together. Their goaltending has been an issue, and they say they lack the top end guys, but they do have some studs up front. But they squandered some years here, and their stud defensemen are only getting older. I know they don't want to lose Rantanen, but they might do well to just keep him and try to make a run. Tkachuk banged up for Florida, Rangers down right now. Tampa Bay still a threat. Capitals randomly good. But overall, East has some openings to maybe make that run.

Thanks for the correction, interestingly enough Necas has 4g since being traded...basically half of Busters total if you - the EN and the goal he got credit for when Seider? Shot it into his own net....that means Bust has 9! actual goals this season lol

Canes have had G issues, but my oppinion is if you get Burns and now Taylor....your not getting yourself a winning culture. I dont care what anyone says about either....they exude "not gonna win" to me

Some how get Rantanen for Buster and Clarke, Nelson for TOTM would be my wishlist right now. I think Kings would be better if Buster stayed for PO's as that type of guy helps win a series if you have the top line guys in place. Kings are in that dead zone where its either or not both....so may as well go for the change imo. But I doubt Rantanen ends in LA.

Maybe a 3 team thing where Marner ends in LA is more likely lol

I actually don't really know Jake Evans of Montreal, but seeing his name all over the place. Guess he's a legit faceoff guy down the middle. Not sure much else.

LA Kings should trade for this former player before the NHL Trade Deadline

The Los Angeles Kings have struggled as of late as they have lost three straight after a relatively strong February where they won five of the first six games.

I mean...a boy can dream. Haha. I wish they'd never moved him, but I can't see a scenario where he would want to come back and be around Rob Blake. Rangers seem to have turned a corner though. Looking like a playoff team again.

Only to retire, one of thse sign for a day things....uness Blaake is gne

PLG already 1g 1a....over 50 points and a +22 as a 2c....amazing how a player used to his strengths can perform. Huge part of why the Caps are a top team

Just sucks because Kings fans wanted him gone so bad that LA dumped him....he was an asset weather you liked him or not and now not having a 2c or assets to get one are a franchise problem.
