Kings are a train wreck.

they won their cup, they're done.
Chicago too. Smartest thing they could do is sell off Kane and Captain serious to the highest bidder (blue chip prospects) and start a quick rebuild.
Its the way of the new NHL. Win a few cups with talent, sell the talent off and hope the returns are the newest talent.

If you're rich it's pretty nice to live anywhere.

LA has everything and anything though.

People with money don’t usually leave, and people want to play there no matter how bad the teams are (See Lebron)

Basketball doesn't count, one player can make a team. See: Cavaliers, Cleveland.

If I were Q, I'd take the year off and see what the options are next year. I'd want nothing to do with LA.

Maybe I'm a homer, but after this season, buffalo seems like a good landing spot for a coach.

Good owners

Why wait ? no reason. I know it doesn't look good to dump Housley but the waiting has gone on long enough.

I agree, it's a bad look to keep going thru coaches. Unfortunately we have already passed that threshold.

I'm not a housley fan, but the team has been playing pretty good.

Could be a good idea

In '05-'06, Pominville got called up to the sabres after getting 26p in 19gp

Right now Olofsson is at 16p in 12

Is there a magic number that gets him on this team, or is it injuries only? Seems like a natural time to swap Tage for Victor

Way behind, I admidt.
But the correct a swer is 10/2019
Those are The numbers

Could be a bad one too. Im not paid to be a pro analysis. So I stay away from opinions .

Team is just starting to get used to playing together. They are gonna get better. Some are comparing to other teams that have had a core in place for a bunch of years . How long did it take OV to get a cup ?

Couple good points.

I think "the core" maybe getting a facelift.

Risto
Sam
Erod
McCabe
Bogo
Okposo

Some of these guys are gonna be moved this offseason

Jbotts brought in 9 new faces this year

I do hope so.
Way, way overrated, might have good value from some GM's.
Time to find out...
package Risto with one of the two other, get one solid #2 Dman for Dahlin...somehow, someway. That's $13.5m in cap going out, if possible to unload all three.

Bogo is playing the best he has for Sabres, can it continue for more than 25 games?

If Bogo keeps progressing ..do you risk trying to find a replacement ?
And i'm starting to agree with the Risto comment .

Yes, it's likely unsustainable.
