About This Page: This is a discussion on LA Kings Talk within the LetsGoKings.com forums, at Los Angeles Kings Hockey Fan Forum. http://insider.espn.go.com/nhl/featu...tures%2frumors
Anyone have the insider so we can see what it says ?
"Besides the usual suspects of Ds Rob Blake, Brad Stuart and Jaroslav Modry, the Los Angeles Daily News says the Kings might deal F Mike Cammalleri before the trade deadline if the price is right.
Cammalleri will be an unrestricted free agent after next season and he and the Kings had a touchy arbitration hearing last summer in which he asked for $6M per year and received a $6.7M, two-year deal, according to the Daily News.
Only Anze Kopitar, Dustin Brown, Patrick O'Sullivan and Jack Johnson are safe on the last-place Kings as they use the trade deadline to rebuild.
"When your team is younger, they have to learn how to win," Kings GM Dean Lombardi told the Daily News. "... We have to, at some point, put this in place. It's going to have to start at the grass-roots level and Kopitar, Johnson and Brown and these kids coming through."
The Daily News alslo listed Fs Ladislav Nagy, Brian Willsie and Scott Thornton as players rumored to be moved by the Kings before the Feb. 26 deadline."
ESPN is just quoting Matt from Inside the Kings/Daily News (Rich Hammond's blog). Matt is just like one of us writing an article for the Daily News, so I wouldn't put too much faith in it.
ESPN Insider is god awful when it comes to regurgitating trade rumors from local papers. I go to CNNSI run fannation.com which does the same thing but for free.

Well, yeah...it's the same. Except he's, you know, a professional writer.
He also gets to travel with the team, talk to the players and the guys that coach them.
So yeah, other than those somewhat minor details, it's the same.
Matt writes something for the paper -> we read it and disseminate it to the Internet -> espn.com picks it up -> we read on espn.com what we already read 24 hours prior.
