LA would even match an 11 million dollar OS, he isn’t leaving
They dont have the cap space lmao😂
@@warriorcobra. The Kings have more cap space going into the summer than Montreal. Kings have $22.5M of cap space before signing anyone.
@@adamschlumbohm5304I guess if you don’t need a goalie and lose basically your entire bottom 6, then I’m with you, they have more cap space than Montreal
I don't think they would, the 4 1st round picks Montreal would have to fork over would change LA , they would move those picks for upgrades across the line up
Kings have to sign 11 players for 22M; Mtl has 20.5M in cap space and only need to sign 4 lmao.... 4 ppl to fill out the 4th line... The Kings have 7 forwards, 5 defense and 0 goalies signed for next year. The Kings very much are in cap trouble. Any starting goalie is going to cost 3-4M even for a crap one. Turcotte, Thomas, Lizotte, Kalliyev, and Spence are all getting raises to over 1M+, all are RFA's, this means arbitration. Mtl won't sign Byfield to an offer sheet, but a trade could be possible. Harris, Ferrell, wpg First and possibly a 2nd/or 3rd rd pick. Kings won't get full value for Byfield in a situation like this. This is similar value as the Kirby Dach trade
It's a crazy idea but this could be cool to have the tower of power as a trio.
I don't see LA splitting with him, and signing him for 9.5 screws up your negotiation power with Slaf
this
😂😂😂😂 LA would never let that happen. Rob Blake would be instantly fired if he did.
Then LA does it back to back to Slaf, Ghule and Dach
These guys will be extended before becoming rfa, they have it great in Montreal , young guys with tons of ice time being the talk of the biggest fan base in hockey on the planet. Why would anyone go to LA right now, more people are moving out of California than any other states due to their wokeness, weird taxes , violence , poverty and how pedophilia is frowned upon but isn’t a felony LA is a dump with fans that jumps on and off the wagon depending on how the team is doing
i never think this will happen i dont think LA ever gives him up to an offersheet or even trades him, but i do think it would be funny, because you would also have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd overall pick on that line, put them on a d pairing with reinbacher and you have a 5th overall aswell we would only need a 4th, everyone knows pokemon, gotta get em all
This is stupid, would make more sense to go after Martin Necas. Carolina can't afford him, MTL can.
Shouting out SDPN, I love it 👏
It’s never gonna happen but for a second , imagine it did and Dach came back healthy and picture a line where you put Dach on the wing That looks scary and big line Slafkovski-byfield-Dach And not only they’re big and young but all three are responsible players that play a 200 ft game , and all three are great on take always and have super long reach , wow
Imagine a Dach-Byfield-Slafkovsky line? Good luck NHL.
9.5 is 3 first round picks plus some others. A team would be insane to offer that
LMAO kings will not get rid of him. Theyve shown that time and time again. Also why would they?
I would do it why not he's big and can score go HABS
No one offer sheets it's a known rule between gms only 1 clown 🤡 did n didn't even try for real he actually just helped them sign a good contract
uhhhh.......teams offer sheet buddy.
@@scottstenlund433 name one
@@alphamale4182Columbus to Marner but Marner didnt sign. There are many more but they just dont see daylight
How did Webber get that big contract?
Dustin Penner OS to Anaheim from Edmonton. Mitch Marner OS to Toronto from Columbus. Sebastian Aho OS to CAR from Montréal. Offer sheets happen.
$9.5 range would be 2 early 1st compensation; correct? A little steep but I kinda like it.
Quinton stays with L.A !
Yeah, Kings fan here. At 9.5 I’d be angry at Montreal but match it. The salary cap is going up, Kopitar’s salary is going down a few million, Roy is probably leaving. If they let Arvy go, they can make Byfield the 1B line center and bump PLD with Byfield. Then move Danault to the 3rd line. By the time half of that contract is up, Byfield would be a gigantic discount. (Especially when in 2 years Kopitar takes another likely pay cut) It would take more than 9.5 million. And I’d offer sheet Montreal in a few years when they are pushing against the cap. (Which both will happen)
We're not letting QB55 go to Montreal. NO @#@$@# way!!!
can you show us your hut team??
Go 10 million. Cap is going up. Price's salary will cover the cost. Draft picks are only a chance to get a Byfield. Why not get the real Byfield? Byfield would make the Habs a playoff team next year.
I do not see how it would be worth it for Mtl to pay that much for Byfield. He would not produce similar to Driseidle.
Kopitar is going to make $3 million less in the next two years because his extension was only worth $7 million a year from his original $10 million. That will definitely help and make its way into Byfield's pockets. I do see LA not re-signing Arvidsson which frees up another $4.25 million as well. My concern is being able to re-sign Matt Roy because he is criminally underrated. Jordan Spence may get a 1-year bridge deal. I just want my Kings to keep Byfield and Roy. I don't see Arvidsson, Lizotte, Lewis and Kaliyev coming back. Also, with Akil Thomas now starting to make his mark, could he be given an offer ?
If arvidson could stay healthy I would keep him over roy for sure 💯roy is not worth the money he is going to want 👎
roy should be the focus this off season. Hes really underrated and I agree Spence will get a 1 year deal but they will sign him longer bc hes an amazing puck moving defenseman
@@danielfchen8895*sadly, I think Roy is gone, also Arvi, & Lizotte, def Kaliyev & Grundstrum, plus Lewis, all gone... Obviously Byfield will get signed... They probably sign Turcotte, Thomas, Fagemo, Madden & Spence, & probably Talbot again then see which youngsters from Ontario can compete & crack the lineup... Salary Cap is gonna go up... Clarke is gonna be in the lineup next year, time to put those youngsters to work now that the veterans are all locked up for a couple of years at least... Gonna be a lil different team but not by much...
@@daveyoung9484*I think Arvi is gone unless he is willing to take a serious pay cut...
Roy & kaliyev gotta go for sure.
As a Habs fan… I don’t want HuGo to offer sheet anybody (with all of our great prospects of our OWN we’ll have to re-sign at some point Because if you offer sheet a player from another team… You expose yourself to have OTHER TEAMS offer sheeting YOUR guys in the future even if just as a Revenge move as past history has shown us ..hm hm.. Aho then KK .. hm) BUT !!! Wouldn’t mind if HuGo inquired to the Kings for a TRADE !!!! for Byfield !!!
Honestly I don’t see Byfield going anywhere but I could see a player like Kaliyev possibly
whatever the opposite of "remember this is a BUSINESS" is.
Hey guy this has nothing to do with this conversation but Krebs would be a great fit in LAs system. Make it happen I’m telling all of you Krebs is a stud in a losing system
Hughes would never offer sheet, he is too wise.
Its not worth the time or the grudge you create imo. If LA has the money they will match.
It would be dumb for montreal to try.....
Did Montreal not learn their lesson with I believe it was AHO that offer sheet cost them Kotkaniemi not that he's been fantastic but was someone that the Habs coveted on their roster and was at the time still highly touted those moves don't do any team any good
kk isnt doing good btw. canes overpaid for him
@@scottstenlund433 He's headed for a buyout.
@@RandomPlaceHolderNameI dont think so. He is overpaid 3rd liner but only 23 years old so he can develop better. Last year was 0.5 ppg guy. Buy out now would impact carolina for decade so propably not
@@juuhan4892 He's currently a $5m 4th liner though. 12pts in 60 games averaging 12mins. And 0.5ppg was with solid wingers like Necas, Tera and Jarvis. KK was being carried, like his rookie year in MTL. Edit: His buyout is $800k and saves the Canes $4m to win now.
@@RandomPlaceHolderName They have enough capspace so very hard to see this move regardless. Cap penalty would last very long regardless. I think they still try with him
It’s nice to dream!
Byfield is tall and about 205 pounds.... But But ... he is afraid of getting hit ... he does not hit anyone... so another Paciorety or PLD or Mantha or Necas ... Get some tough as nails forward that can score 20-25 goals.... Svetchinkov ...anyone...????
Byfield was 214lb. when he was drafted.
I say lets do it.
Don’t make me dream !
Never ever going to happen.
Yeah no LOL
Nobody leaves LA willingly
*coughcough* Brock Faber
@@user-by3nd4rm6c homie was from minnesota and hes born and raised over there. Some people do prefer cold over beautiful sunny la lol
@@danielfchen8895 Exactly, so he must have left LA willingly in that case
I’d be happy with throwing 10 million at him. Rebuild would be over.
Rebuild over with one player? That's optimistic af - the defense is years away from being decent.
@@RandomPlaceHolderName it would end me cheering for losses and would put Habs in the 10 range, so wildcard region.
As a huge Kings fan you guys can have him. Take PLD while you’re at it.
Leave L.A..... unlikely. No amount of money will bring him to Montreal. Where would you prefer to be.
He is a superstar...
Myers is a turnover machine...
LA is a dump , it’s the city that loses more habitants every month , due to the violence , pedophilia, weird taxes ,wokeness, water shortage, homelessness.even celebrities are leaving at an alarming rate . I would much rather live in Montreal tha LA, but they’re making millions , they can live wherever the hell they want in the off season Seriously you couldn’t pay me to go to LA, 10 years ago it was awesome but it is now known as the freak state
Terrible idea....What the heck are ppl thinking. Never got 20 goals, never got over 53 pts ? HARD PASSS FOR ME
