Los Angeles Kings Rumors: 3 Potential Landing Spots for Viktor Arvidsson


The Los Angeles Kings are looking to free up some cap space, and winger Viktor Arvidsson has become a trade candidate. The 30-year-old should receive interest, as he just posted a 26-goal and 59-point campaign in 77 games. Teams looking for a top-six winger will call, so let's look at three possible landing spots for him. 

Washington Capitals: The Washington Capitals are looking to improve their forward group, specifically their top six. This is understandable when noting that they missed the playoffs this year. Arvidsson would give them another scorer and slot perfectly on their second line.

New York Islanders: The New York Islanders need to add another scoring winger this offseason. Scoring woes have been their biggest issue for multiple seasons now, and bringing in a player like Arvidsson could be a way to help fix that. He would be an option to slot on their top line. 

Dallas Stars: The Dallas Stars are another club that could be in the mix for Arvidsson's services. Their top six needs a boost, and they are expected to actively seek one this offseason. With Arvidsson likely available, expect him to be one of their targets.
