The last KOTP was hilarious. I’m not a Hoven hater, but this is a guy who said there was a deal in place for Gavrikov that would be signed in April. He admitted to this on the last show, but the best part was his backpedaling on Marner.
Suddenly now he’s talking how the Kings aren’t just one player away (a big admission from him.) He also downplayed “getting a 100 pt player” when the team needs more players like Dustin Brown, Shane Doan, and even Jeremy Roenick (ha). This after weeks of practically announcing for the team Marner would be a King. I think word got to him Marner is going to Vegas.
As for interest in Turcotte, I believe it because that’s a great contract. In fact it’s exactly the kind of player Vegas needs to fill out their roster. Would they flip Hague over for Turcotte? Because that works.
