VIEWPOINT / LETTERS : Carson Trade Was Good, but Destination Was Bad
- Share via
I’m the first to applaud the trade of Jimmy Carson, but I sincerely question his destination.
Carson is a very talented individual with goal-scoring knack who simply was not fitting into the Kings’ current scheme. A trade was the best move for the team.
But why send him to Vancouver? The Canucks, a division rival, have a very talented pair of wings to complement Carson’s ability.
Nick Beverley has done a great job to strengthen the Canucks’ lineup. Let’s hope he can do the same for the Kings in the near future.
