Given standings currently (which is big surprise for both team) Kings decide to trade injure Toews plus lot of other asset to obtain mr.Kopitar's services.... despite high salary he is still our LA King so welcome back home Anze!
....this year we may win but all future year we lose an arm and leg to try to beef up roster for current season and keep good times rolling!!
