Analyzing Trade Rumors: The Kings Do Not Need a Shutdown Defenseman

This rumor surfaces every single year and every single year we write the same damn article. God dammit.

"I didn't live through the Robyn Regehr years only to see Jeff Schultz skate out of his ashes."

Schultz might not be Darryl Sutter's answer to the void that he believes Robyn Regehr left, but rest assured that Sutter and Lombardi are looking.

Every year this topic comes up. In 2013 it was Robyn Regehr. in 2014 it was Andrew MacDonald. Last season, it was Roman Polak. The latter article may be the most relevant as Polak is probably available - every word of that piece is still true.
