Kings Rumors: 3 Solid Players Who Could Become Trade Candidates


The Los Angeles Kings have several players on their roster who, while not actively being shopped, could be considered potential trade candidates in the near future.

Trevor Moore, known for his speed and energy, is under a five-year contract with an average annual value of $4.2 million, making him an interesting asset.

The 28-year-old scored 10 goals and 29 points across 59 games played last season with the Kings.

However, the team might explore a trade if salary cap adjustments or opportunities for younger players became necessary.

Viktor Arvidsson, a talented forward, has only one year remaining on his contract, valued at $4.5 million.

The 30-year-old racked up a solid 26 goals and 59 points over 77 games played this past season.

While not actively on the trade block, the Kings could consider trading him to maximize his value or address any uncertainties about his long-term fit with the team.

Meanwhile, Matt Roy, a dependable defenseman with a one-year contract worth $3.15 million, may become subject to trade discussions to create room for emerging defensive prospects in the organization.
