| 23rd October, 2007 - 3:59 am |  L.A. Times - The Ottawa Sun reported that the Los Angeles Kings were listening to offers for forwards Alexander Frolov and Dustin Brown in exchange for a goalie.
The Kings, however, say that the rumor is a fabrication.
"There's no basis to that," Kings Coach Marc Crawford said Monday after practice in El Segundo. "Everybody, reporters and probably coaches alike, try to fantasize about trades. They're exactly that -- they are fantasies. That trade would never happen. Ever."
"It's a fabrication by somebody saying, 'That might work. They need a goalie. And boy, who could we get that's young and inexpensive?' And those are the names. They look at the salary chart and say, 'These guys are inexpensive. That makes sense.' But it really doesn't."
Dean Lombardi, the Kings' president and general manager, said Friday in Vancouver that the offers coming his way right now aren't as good as one he rejected in the summer in which the Kings would have given up young goalie Jonathan Bernier and a No. 1 draft pick for a front-line goalie. [READ] |
