Provorov staying in Columbus for 8.5M. Kings need to extend Gavrikov or they're screwed.
It isn't July 1 yet, but this is shaping up like a classic Kings spring-summer free agency.

What's Gavy gonna want now. North of 9M?

Current mood: Remember the scene in the Godfather where they're planting the gun for Mikey and they say make sure they get it planted so he doesn't walk out of the bathroom with only his dick in his hands?
It feels like the Kings didn't get the gun planted.
The deal was sooooooo close in the spring when Gavi was firing his agent. Now...

Florida is the retirement state after all

No doubt it’s front-loaded and he’ll retire part of the way through the contract.

Buffalo just picked another defenseman. Hope that increases the chances for the Kings to trade for Byram.

I would love him, but I'm not sure the Kings have the assets. In fact, I don't think they do.

Gavy-Agent had this go perfectly. With the Cap going up and a new GM the negotiating all worked in the favor of the player.
Gavy had an agent who works all the ways to maximize the value.
I would think at this point Gavy doesn’t stay for less than 8.5-9.

Yeah my guess is that he is going to want at least 9.5. Like you said, he has an agent who is notorious for wanting to set ceiling. At this point, I hope the Kings walk away as the deal will also, no doubt, include a full NMC and term.

Kaliyev non-tendered by NYR.

Maybe Holland can do a sign and trade with the Rags for Gavy,that’s who he is rumor to sign tomorrow on Free Agency Day.In return(wishful thinking) the Kings get Andre Miller(D) and a couple of prospects and or draft picks if he is unable to resign Gavrikov today.

I would love for the Kings to file tampering charges against the Rangers, but Gavrikov’s agent is Luc’s best buddy, so no chance of that.

If Gavrikov wants Noah Dobson money, well.. bye. He’s not worth a penny north of 7.5 mill. Didn’t get it done the last two playoffs versus Oilers, what’s gonna change when he’s locked into a sweet heart overpaying contract. No f***ing thank you.

 

[ICE24]

Let him go, let him walk right out on the Kings, if the sun comes up tomorrow let him be.

Today has been brutal, seeing the haves continue to have more. All the guys returning back to Florida, Vegas continues to steal super star players from the East for peanuts, guys stating openly they will only sign extensions in Vegas.. motherfvck.
