Seems like a potential player. Not playing much for LA, but had 70 and 69-point seasons in the AHL the last two years. Only 23, too.

Weal actually won the Calder Cup MVP last year for the Kings' affiliate, as well.

He fixed some cap problems AND got a draft pick back? There is no God, only Hextall.

Just be clear, we have a dead cap hit of 2.25 for this season plus 2 more?

Just this year. Vinny says he's retiring at season's end, which takes the full hit off the books.

Meltzer: Assuming Gagner is not re-signed, Flyers suddenly will have north of $10M of freed up cap space to pay upcoming raises & find upgrades.

supposedly LA wouldn't agree to the deal unless Vinny retired since they need to free up cap space for Kopitar, etc.

Nice write-up from this King's site on Weal. They had him as #3 prospect:
