I laugh because you are wrong....with the trades the Kings made at the deadline, you have to add +/-7.5 mil deduction to the payroll...which puts the Kings 10 mil below the birdies

Right. Just like how the Hawks subtracted Smokes' contract, huh? I'd say our roster payrolls are closer than you think.

To the contrary, last year I would have been sad...but this year is a re-building year, so I'm hoping Philly gets on a winning streak, and the Kings stop managing to win games!!

Pffft...I'm pretty happy with the defense that has Keith, Barker, and Seabrook. With Toews and Skille due to join next year, I've got reason to be positive.

There is no need to rush him back into the line-up.
He can sit out the rest of the season for all I care...See you in camp next year Anze when you are 100%.

If the Kings get good line-mates for Kopitar next season look-out!!!

Seabrook is a good kid. I've met him a few times. He actually lives in the same suburb that I live in.

Speaking of drafts, you guys should check this out.

Hah...well, Seabrook and Keith have been playing regularly. And doing pretty darn well esp. for two very young defenseman being thrown right into the fire.

I'm just not like Waldorf and like to chime in how godly they are or whatever like he is about Kopitar.
