Team: 2024-25 Los Angeles Kings

Initial Creation Date: Jun. 3, 2024

Published: Jun. 3, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

General: Move away from the 1-3-1, improve the PP units

Offense: Byfield gets the Center role he wants, and will play with Fiala and Kempe on the wings, which should be a lethal 1s line.
Kopi moves down to the second line with PLD on the wing and UFA signing Toffoli. That line could certainly do some damage.
Danault will continue to play with Moore and the boost that line with Kuznetsov to have that offensive creativity and skill.
Throw in Turcotte and Thomas, as they are ready and let them play with a veteran like Reaves, who will make that line more gritty.

Defense: Anderson and Doughty remain the top D-Pair for the Kings
By bringing in Chychrun, the Kings will have the player, that can do it all on defense and Clarke is ready to shine with him.
Englund and Perbix are that big shutdown D-Pair, that could work out well together.

Goalies: Korpisalo might be a risky move, but with the retention on that deal, it should be just fine and by adding him to the trade with Ottawa, it will make Chychrun available, so OTT can dump Korpisalo. He's already familiar with the Kings, so it should work out.
Rittich as the back-up was already fixed as the Kings' first signing of the season, which was a good move.

Heard, that it's rather unlikely that the Kings re-sign Spence with Clarke emerging, so this ACGM is based on the assumption he's getting moved.
