Carolina Hurricanes - Los Angeles Kings
Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2025 4:43 pm
To Carolina:
Connor Zary (81)
Calum Ritchie (75)
Spencer Gill (62)
CHI 1st 2025
To Los Angeles:
Brandon Sutter (71)
Steve Mason (74)
SJ 2nd 2025
Confirmed. I wasn't looking to move Sutter (let alone to my main division rival) but this is a solid deal for CAR - a younger fill-in in Zary, a good two-way C prospect in Ritchie who'll be in the pros next season, a likely mid-teens pick and a TWD prospect who just needs some AHL time to get his STR up. Sutter's obviously the best player in the deal but he's a year away from turning 37 and the Canes aren't as close to contention as I hoped they'd be by now and are better off playing the youngsters for the rest of the season and reloading in UFA.
