NHL rumors: De La Kings and Adrian Kempe do not seem to be close to a deal

The Los Angeles Kings and Adrian Kempe do not seem to be close to a contract extension

Daily faceoff: David Pagnotta on Daily Faceoff Live, talking about Kirill Kaprizov’s contract extension, which increases the bar for wing players who want to sign contract extensions. Things don’t seem to be close between the Los Angeles Kings and Adrian Kempe, and both parties are good with that. Kempe could now be in the $ 11 million.

“The Kaprizov deal will influence the wing market more than anything. And to a certain extent, the emphasis will emphasize a man like (jack) Eichel, because of the top-tier talent that some of these guys are, but it will have more effect on Kempe, on (Alex Tuch), on Kyle Connor and Zo.

NHL rumors: Expect higher players to be the norm

So the figures you started in the low season, once you could start negotiating, you know, a question of $ 10 million, two months ago is probably 11 plus now, now for some boys.

I know that in the case of Kempe I know that the agent of Kings and Kempe, JP Barry, recently spoke. They went back to things to have a conversation, but nothing is close.

It sounds like this, with an important turn of (GM) Kenny Holland and the Kings, it seems that he can start the regular season without an extension, but he thinks it’s good. It sounds like both sides are good with that too. They want to get a deal, but it sounds like it will take a little time.

So I don’t think, again, on no side. But this is a player who will probably float around $ 11 million a year on an AAV if he goes the full period for a full eight years.
