He’s due for a RFA arbitration raise after this season…maybe the Kings know something that we don’t (attitude, work ethic, etc)? That they see something that makes them 100% not want to extend him beyond this year? Because yeah, on the surface, this makes absolutely NO sense at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the THN article: Durzi is a 24-year-old, right-shot defender with immense offensive upside, having finished 2022-23 with nine goals and 29 assists for 38 points in 72 games while logging nearly 20 minutes in average nightly ice time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I read it. You guys were just acting like it was some big crazy trade though, and I’ve never even heard of the dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was big in the playoffs for them against the oilers. Yea, it didn't work out for them, but he was a an important piece. They've gotta be worried about the cap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s more of ‘what is LA thinking dumping a player of his caliber and age and contract with RFA rights for a pick’; on the surface, it just doesn’t make a lot of sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I know he had at least one really good game against us this year and he’s a physical 24 year old D man but yeah for all I know this could be the equivalent of us getting a 3rd for Sharangovich. I would be ecstatic with that but I’m sure other fan bases would look at it like we got robbed giving up a 25 year old who scored 24 goals last season for only a 3rd.

John Wensink Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I think it because they have Brandt Clarke they did this for cap space. Not sure though I don’t follow the west closely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure though I don’t follow the west closely Did some digging and yes, this is part of the reason. Also, he had the worst +/- rating on the Kings…and apparently that’s an accurate indicator of his play in his own end. Guess he has potential but has things to work on.

vincois Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 There's a lot of Twitter chatter about Torey Krug not waiving his NTC to go to Philly. Like, he's not "cooperating"? Maybe, before an agent or GM puts a trade out in the media, maybe they might do their due diligence. Now every body's embarrassed. Torey knows they're trying to unload him, as does Kevin Hayes & Sanheim on the Philly aside. Only a jackass blames Krug. Wasn't it Armstrong that gave him & a vast majority of the others NTC/NMC. He gives them out like candy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And everyone involved in trying to make the deal needs to make sure ahead of time that the player involved is actually willing to waive it before proceeding to the next steps. Yeah Krug is completely blameless here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so that people have said Petro not getting a NTC was a reason he went to Vegas. Edited June 26 by NJDevils1214 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
