I know a lot of Kings fans will scoff at the idea of Nurse, but assuming the cost to get him is low he does upgrade their blue line. They’re better if he’s the LD2 rather than Edmundson next season.

Per sources, the Kings and Penguins are two teams Nurse would accept a trade to.
More on that, Hellebuyck, and other chatter across the NHL in today’s latest piece thefourthperiod.com/pagnotta…

Enjoyed everything that was said from both Laviolette and Holland. Still lots of work to do, but it at least sounds like positive changes are coming.

If Mike Babcock does end up as coach in Edmonton, wouldn’t surprise me if DJ Smith joined up with him again. But we’ll see where all this goes.

Sources: The Edmtn Oilers are consulting with the NHLPA to see if there are objections that must be resolved before potentially hiring Mike Babcock. Amid allegations of invading players privacy, Babcock resigned in CBJ as Head Coach in 2023. Further investigation may be required.

The LA Kings are close to naming their next head coach, and it will be a new one. Per sources, DJ Smith is no longer in the running. Keep eyes on Jay Woodcroft and Peter Laviolette.

Peter Laviolette is a legit option for the LA coaching job, per Elliotte.
Had previously said there could be another name he was unaware of and it appears we now have that name.
