Speculation: Kaliyev trade...

[HabsAddict]

I know him from the main board and from Return of the Jedi
He's a good guy and a great hockey mind

Cheque is in the mail...

 

[bland]

watch him get traded to the Pens and put up 30g oals his first season

If you put him in a spot where he can be fed pucks from the circles down, and not require anything else out of him, then yeah, he will put up some goals.

Same applies to Fagemo, so maybe it's no surprise that one dimensional wingers don't fit into their expectations. Chromiak can't even get into a playoff game.

So if the plan is to draft goal scoring wingers and develop them to adapt, they are either scouting the wrong kids or their developmental team is a failure. With both you get egg rolls.

We have a lot of egg rolls.

That's exactly what I expect him to do, go out and pick corners cold. That's his role. If he can't do that, he can't play in the NHL, because he's not ever going to be Blake Lizotte.

Well then I'm sorry, Rob, but you can't deploy him as Lizotte and expect Johnston. Literally no one does that. Except YOUR LOS ANGELES KINGS!

 

[Fat Elvis]

What's the offer from MTL?

 

[HabsAddict]

HabsAddict has been circling the Kings for weeks now, a shark knows when to feast

Never stop a great theft...

When the Jets traded for Monahan, i was on the Jets board assuring them that it was a good trade...and they saw ghat in weeks.

I'm no angel but i value a good hockey discussion.

What's the offer from MTL?

I already made the deal with LTDan.

Burgers and beer.

Here's what really happened

Value of: - Pierre Luc Dubois

Anderson + Gallagher + Price For PLD and a your 1st Or you can buy him out and pay him for 14 years. Or keep him and be angry and depressed for 7 more years. But...what if he is a lockeroom problem?

Lies, deceit, creating mistrust are his ways now.

I would take a smoked meat cart with pepperettes and some little jars of steak spice parked right outside Crypto

 

[HabsAddict]

Kaliyev will absolutely score 30 goals, 60 points on a team that actually encourages creativity/offense.

Habs would do well to acquire him for a modest price of a 1st round pick and a prospect.

If i shave my legs i can call myself a supermodel.

I'm staying away on the value of the trade.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Blake’s top target in the dumpster is a goalie. His best prospect to completely trash is Arthur.

The only stars I see aligning here are Kaliyev and a 4th for Binnington at 50% retained.

 

[HabsAddict]

The more i think about it...it raises more questions...

I wonder how Kaliyev will feel moving from a team that treats him like a bottom 6...to a team that has a pile of young guys who want to eat his liver.

St Louis is getting a players coach reputation but he also has a lot of babies that need their soothers. Kaliyev wont get the attention Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailioux are going to get because all of them have top 4 written on them.

Front we have a pile of middle 6 forwards that will de'liver him. Some are tough guys, some are 200ft players, some are prima donnas but with too much skill. Basically, he has to WANT to rise and to WORK for it because top 6 or top 9 wont be handed to him.

When i was a young pup and managing way too many people, i had an owner who was a great teacher. Every single day I got the same question....what have you done TODAY to earn your job. And he expected an answer.

"Kaliyev, what are you going to do to earn your playing time"

If AK had half the talent and motivation he has, he'd be a fixture on the 2nd line.Johnston is a really smart player, AK is not. He always seen to go to the right spots on the ice, you can see he gets it.

Well, I don't have half the optimism and positivity in the staff you have, that's for sure.

I can't believe people are still evaluating players here based on their usage by the Kings org.

Never let benchwarmers analyze benchwarmers...

I'm speculating that Kaliyev gets shipped to the Bruins for Ullmark...once there Arthur will become a 30 goal scorer

Kings winger Arthur Kaliyev has asked to be traded

This season was a rough one for Kings winger Arthur Kaliyev. After being a capable secondary scorer in his first two seasons, things more or less went off the rails in 2023-24. Now, the 22-year-old is believed to have asked for a trade, reports David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period.

[FrozenKing18]

Not surprising. Kid needs to get away from the Kings org to get some ice time. I REALLY wish he had worked out here.

 

[chris kontos]

The best thing that could happen for this guy would be to get the hell away from these boys. Problem was never with the player- i look for him to be a consistent 30+ goal guy on a real nhl team.

 

[King'sPawn]

Can't blame him.

Even if he struggled, he still put in effort. More than what we could say about some players who are paid more.

 

[SaltyElkHunter]

I really do hate everything about this team above people on the ice and to be honest I can’t stand 1/3 of our roster.

 

[RocketKing]

With the hip injury to Pasta, he’s facing surgery and they B’s could use a cheap shooter to pitch in some offense until he gets back.

 

[Surf Nutz]

His value is so low, I would give him another shot.

But he might not sign and just go play in Europe.

 

[Herby]

Kaliyev will play the Robert Lang role in the remake of "Serious Hockey, Serious Fans" era of Kings hockey that Rob Blake is building.

And what a nightmare the 2019 draft has been for the Kings, 5 years later.

Turcotte is the least productive Top-5 forward pick through five seasons in this century.

Bjornfot's value was allowed to crater to zero, and then he was waived and lost for nothing.

Kaliyev likely traded when his value is as low as its ever been.

Another Rob Blake Master-Class!

I know nobody will care

BUT

This is a link to yardbarker

that just reposted an article from ProHockeyRumors

That "article" linked to articles from

David Pagnotta (thefourthperiod May 29th)

• The Los Angeles Kings will look to trade Arty Kaliyev again this summer. The pending RFA has asked for a trade and GM Rob Blake will try to move him – perhaps package him in a deal for an upgrade elsewhere on the roster.

ANOTHER article from

ProHockeyRumors (January 29th)
that links to an episode of 32 Thoughts (January 29th)

"sportsnet's Elliot Friendman believes that the Los Angeles Kings could be willing to move on from winger Arthur Kaliyev if they can make a swap and acquire a depth player with some edge to their game as a potential replacement for the 22-year-old. Kaliyev has struggled to carve out a role with the Kings and may have reached a point in Los Angeles where it might be best for the team and player to go their separate ways."

AND an article from

The Athletic (Eric Stephens May 20th)

"How far did Kaliyev fall out of favor? In the last four games he played – none in the postseason – the winger logged a total of 17 minutes, 15 seconds. He dressed in only 13 of Hiller’s 34 games as coach. There were midseason rumblings of a trade request. When he did play, it was on the fourth line. At this point, it would be far more shocking if he did return."
