I know the Kings are having trouble scoring, and their D and Goaltending are usually top notch, but that tending' by Quick has been atrocious, I think they rushed him back for no reason. Campbell wasn't exactly s***ing the bed, lol.
I know this story's a few years old, but chilling nonetheless... I've seen s*** like this growing up in hockey, sad.

Holy f***, Jim. The discussion hasn't changed, at all.
How can you not follow that, and end up spinning it? It's all in the same context... *facepalm*
My reading comprehension is just fine.
I really doubt that, mate. As I doubt we could get 2 spects in the 20-30 in our system as a return, he brings more to the fold in versatility and help groom Jansen along. The batted ball profiles show Martin as quite unlucky, and Maile as very lucky. Meh... we'll see how that works out.
I don't think anyone is hostile to the idea, it's simply the return. If Atkins can find a taker giving up a 50 FV spect I'm sure no one would complain. As many have said, Martin has tangibles that are worth keeping him around over cutting sunk cost and a C/D spect.
Stick with fWAR as reference.
