Great signing. Top line winger for $4m. makes it easy to slide him down a line as the kids take over LA.

Teams are so dumb sometimes. No long term thinking. Iafallo wanted to stay and LA wanted to keep him. But he is a UFA at the end of the year, LA isn't going to the playoffs, and they have some expansion draft problems. Iafallo should want a playoff run and make the team he wants to be with better in the long term. Teams should want to maximize long term asset value. Trade Iafallo at the deadline now, get valuable assets, and re-sign him in the summer. The same goes for Laughton.
This was a good move, as the Kings have no issues protecting Iafallo, particulalrly with Carter leaving for the Penguins. I had him viewed as an obvious protection since I first started working on this late last year. They can protect 7 forwards.

Iafallo
Kempe
