Panarin to Kings

[LAKingSteve]

Panarin salary 50% retained for this season. Kings also gave up a conditional 4th in 2028

This really isn't totally about this season. Assuming Hiller is gone after this year, could be a very different looking (and playing) Kings team.

Here's hoping. Especially when they get trounced by Edmonton again.

Without Kopi it's definitely going to be

I’ve got no problem with Panarin. He’s great at what he does. My issue is the team built around him and the head coach.

Fair point. Probably a great point. Hiller will need to loosen the reins and let the talent play.

On paper this looks great. I wonder how bad the extension will be.

Bad.
He has Holland over the barell now for an extension.
Him and his agent saw the Kigs cap space and want to eat as much of it as they can.
Ken is desperate with no big names picking LA and he retires in 2 more seasson

 

[The Nuts]

I would think there will another trade or 2 at or before the trade deadline,because even with Panarin in this lineup,and there are no other trades/roster moves,the Kings will barely make the playoffs and be out after the first round,or not make the playoffs at all.Just my 2 cents

Hopefully Holland will flip him for something better before the deadline if Panarin does not extend by then,
but P has a NMC

 

[LAKingSteve]

Extension is 2 years at $11M

 

[McSorleyFan]

Now Kings need a 1 C ..... for next season.

 

[Statue4Deano]

It is pretty interesting to see a pending UFA with a NMC come out and say I’ll on go to LA. That’s different.

And the Kings play a north south game

Ken didn't bend over. Very reasonable 2 year extension.

Hiller must go. If Holland can fix the blue line then next season gets a lot more interesting.

One can only hope. If this is true, Luc may have to go too?

Welcome to LA Bread Man!

If Panarin extends there wont be enough in the bag for a new one C.
They will have to use Helinius

He is salivating over the Kings cap space bag and will look to eat the bulk of it

Technically we're not sure they play any offensive game
