With the Los Angeles Kings clearly sellers at the trade deadline, it’s interesting that they’re not rating a high of a mention as the New York Rangers when it comes to potential trade partners for the Boston Bruins.
In Tyler Toffoli they have a player that absolutely should appeal to the Boston Bruins. He is on pace for a 45-point season despite playing for an outfit that successfully neutered the scoring of Ilya Kovalchuk (interestingly, his scoring touch is back in Montreal now).
The suggestion by Hockey Night in Canada’s Elliotte Friedman is that he’s a fallback option for the Boston Bruins and that any deal with LA is as good as done already.
