According to Stephens, Rakell could report next week. 

According to the Detroit Free-press, Ducks want Anthony Mantha for Fowler. 

I have no problem with that trade idea if they add a pick or include Stoner. Fowler is from Michigan, they want him & he fits the Wings style of non-physical disciplined hockey.

[UndertheHalo]

Mantha is a nice long play, it sure would be nice to get a guy that we can confidently believe will contribute significantly this year tho.  

[deepdrive]

And yet, still no signing or trade for a high quality scorer (or future scorer). 

You're not surprising me BM.

[HaloCory22]

Larsson, Sorensen, Raymond sent down. Theodore, Cramarossa, Sgarbossa called up.

[gotbeer]

i thought Larsson was doing well.  Sorensen and Raymond, meh. 

But it's about time Theodore comes up.

[gotbeer]

Kings could look at Ducks’ Jonathan Bernier for goaltending help

This could be interesting.  Shed $4 million in cap.  Call up Tokarski as backup for Gibson.

so, im not clear on how that works.  Does the LTIR clear the cap hit ?

Yep, all gone from the cap.

We should hear about Lindholm soon.

I think after the new contract is signed, Lindholm likely will fire his agent.

His agent thinks he's scott boras.

[UndertheHalo]

hopefully he signs by the end of the week.  The whole situation is so stupid.

[UndertheHalo]

Dat was quick.

 

manson with a nice power move down the center of the ice.  Cogs there to clean it up

Trading Fowler will be painful.

[UndertheHalo]

Wow what a goal from Ritchie. 

[gotbeer]

Huge goal by Ritchie.  Get to the front of the net, and good things happen.

[gotbeer]

Good job Fox.  Break to commercial like dumbshits when it's under 5 minutes in the 3rd and play resumes. 

[gotbeer]

Haha.  Perry just juked that guy out of his jock strap.  Then a Weaver pitch down the middle.

haha, i was telling my buddy the same thing.  Edler is a good Dman, not a lot of guys in the league could have done that.  Perry is something else.

What a great game last night!  Only thing that sucked was the shorty.  Other than five minutes in the second they completely dominated.

Can't trade Fowler IMO, he is playing out of his mind.

[mrwicked]

I don't think they can trade fowler now - he is just such a different player under RC (he was before they canned him too).

LTIR thompson and despres (sad).

Plus the space we had.

And I think they're good. If anything they do a small cap dump. Package stoner (who played great last night) and a pick for space.

Eventually we might need scoring help, deal with that once you get hampus signed.

Don't get your hopes up. The Kings have no cap room. If they did they'd probably already would have brought in a goalie.

Coyotes also lost their goalie.  So hope. 

[UndertheHalo]

I think it makes sense to hold onto Bernier.  Gibson as much as I like him is not a proven commodity.  Plus I don't think it hurts to have a really solid guy at back up. 

[mrwicked]

Bernier looked awesome in the pens game. I wouldn't trade him unless someone wants to panic and overpay. 

[nate]

Knowing Gibson's history of being inconsistent and injury prone I would not part with Bernier.
