Spence Traded for Picks to Ottawa

Seems pretty clear the league is moving back into an obsession with size again. These GMs cannot help themselves. It’s a league of followers so just about any D man 6’ or below is on the block.
Yeah I don’t mind him being on the block in and of itself. But as of right now Kings 3rd RD is Kyle Burroughs.
 
Agreed. We have to assume that this was the most any team offered in terms of picks. So the question should be whether they should have looked for a player instead of picks.
For an undersized, 5-7 defenseman that can run the 2nd power play unit.

He wanted an opportunity to play more, and Clarke surpassed him. Holland moved him to a place where he might get that chance, and did him a solid.

Did the player a solid but f***ed the team in the process.

What was the urgency in moving a quality defenseman on a team friendly deal at $1.7 million? Holland better have something lined up. But the way the Kings tend to operate, I doubt it.

This is the thing. There wasn’t a fourth liner they could get for him and picks?
You know Holland is looking at the UFA list and Cody Ceci’s name is making his heart race. 6’ 3” 210 Right shot…
I actually don’t hate that.
