Still Waiting for Kings to Make Their Moves
I know it has been lost among all the Laker news, but I just wanted to thank King GM Dave Taylor for all his moves over the summer to bolster the offense. OK, so he low-balled top scorer Ziggy Palffy and lost him. And he chose not to re-sign Adam Deadmarsh and Jason Allison and pocketed their $11 million in salaries instead.
Forget about the scorers he let go, what about his trades for ... um ... ? Well, who cares about trades, let’s talk about the offensive free agents he has signed, starting with ... um ...
Do Taylor and AEG mouthpiece Tim Leiweke honestly believe that when a new contract is signed over the summer, goals will no longer be needed to win games? What else explains their inaction?
