[Rumour] Carcillo traded to the LA Kings for a Pick


Recommended Posts

All I remember of him is throwing a whole punch of punches against Rypien and losing, getting pushed (yes, pushed, not punched) in the face by Volpatti, hitting his own teammate in the SCF, and threatening to go after Lapierre and the other "Canucks" Glass (what did he do wrong?) and Torres

Carcillo ready to join ‘proven winners’ in Los Angeles:

Dan Carcillo knows a thing or two about playing for winning teams — he was a member of the Flyers club that advanced to the 2010 Stanley Cup Final and, three years later, won a Cup with the Blackhawks.

So what about his new team, the Los Angeles Kings?

“I think one of the bigger things now is that all the guys are proven winners, kind of like last year in Chicago,” he told Kings Insider. “You know that there’s that core group of guys that have won, and they know what it takes, and they lead the way.”

The ’12 Cup champs acquired Carcillo in mid-July after he spent the last two seasons with the ‘Hawks, appearing in 23 games last year after missing most of 2011-12 with a torn left ACL.

It’ll be interesting to see how “Carbomb” fits in L.A. When he’s on his game, he can be an effective agitator with some skill — he scored 12 goals and 22 points the year Philly went to the Cup Final, racking up 207 PIM.

His problem, though, has been his inability to play with composure, and he’s also had issues staying healthy.

One thing that won’t be an issue, though, is fitting in the Kings’ dressing room. Carcillo is tight with Mike Richards and Jeff Carter going back to their days in Philadelphia, and Carcillo was one of the first people to stick up for the pair during the infamous “Dry Island” fiasco.

“I have nothing but good things to say about Mike Richards,” Carcillo told the Chicago Sun-Times. “He’s an amazing person. He’s an amazing captain. It makes me upset kind of how he’s been dragged through the dirt a little bit as well as Jeff Carter.

“I don’t think it’s fair and I don’t think it’s warranted.”

Finally, it will be interesting to see how physically imposing the Kings will be next season. They’re added Carcillo to the mix and retained the services of their busiest fighters, Jordan Nolan (six scraps last year) and Kyle Clifford (five).

The club also has rough-and-tumble forward Colin Fraser still on the active roster.

That this neanderthal on skates has played on a cup winning team both sickens and saddens me. There are hundreds of far better players who deserve the honour more than him but didn't have the pure dumb luck to be picked up by/play on a winner.
