I don't think LA is a contender. I really don't see any way they win the cup next year.

My list of contenders would be Panthers, Oilers, Hurricanes, Avalanche, Knights and the Lightning.

The Panthers have no cap space, the Oilers have no space and Andersson hates them, the Lightning and Avs have no space.

That is why I understand Vegas as his preferred destination. They are really the only contender who could possibly fit him in. And along with knowing Hanifin and the tax situation, I understand it to a degree.
