Kings general manager Rob Blake says: “We were never planning on taking away from the team, ever, that was never the situation.”
Pierre-Luc Dubois celebrates his third-period goal with his Kings teammates during their overtime victory over the Ottawa Senators on Thursday, March 7, 2024, at Crypto.com Arena. The Vegas Golden Knights, Edmonton Oilers, Vancouver Canucks, Winnipeg Jets, Colorado Avalanche and Dallas Stars each made at least one significant addition, with most acquiring multiple players.“You look and you listen,” Kings general manager Rob Blake said.
“Injuries came into play the last couple weeks, but the timing of them, it’s going to be nice to get a couple of guys back here within a week and then the other two shortly after that,” said Blake, who anticipated Kempe and Anderson to return imminently, with Arvidsson targeting a return near March 16 and Grundstrom to follow “a couple weeks” later.
Blake made no mention of a potential deal for Ullmark or any other player, including former King Tyler Toffoli, who joined his junior teammate Sean Monahan among Winnipeg’s acquisitions. Vegas was by far the biggest player at the high-stakes table, adding forward Tomas Hertl, defenseman Noah Hanifin and winger Anthony Mantha. Hanifin was the highest-value defenseman on the market and Hertl ended up being arguably the most coveted forward after Jake Guentzel fetched an underwhelming return from Carolina.
