Tip an (ex) King

[KingBiscuit]

I noticed that Tip a King this year is on Sunday, February 24th at 5 pm. The trade deadline is noon on February 26th.

The Kings are obviously off on the 24th and don't play again until the 28th.
It seems as though it will be Tip an ex-King for a few players. Some of the players rumored to be gone will probably be in a somber mood at the event...and your last chance to see them as a King.

The Kings have a 4 game road trip starting the 28th, so if the Kings get some new players, the next home game to see them wion't be until March 6th, vs the Sens.
With the Sens being rumored in deals - maybe you'll be seeing an ex-King.

it was like this last year. i had mattias norstrom sign some stuff and then he was gone to dallas 2 days later.

I think this years deadline trades will come earlier than the 11th hour. Maybe 1 guy will be an ex KIng but who really knows.

Funny idea KingBiscuit.

Wouldn't it be funny if during the event Mike Altieri whispered in a players ear and that player suddenly bolted.
