from Helene Elliott of the LA Times,
Ducks General Manager Brian Burke said Friday from his Anaheim office that he and his King counterpart, Dean Lombardi, have discussed a trade “but nothing lines up yet.”
Lombardi, reached at the Kings’ training base in El Segundo, wouldn’t confirm he had talked to the Ducks. Speaking generally, he said he’s still looking for an experienced defenseman and has been getting a lot of phone calls from fellow GMs.
“I’m a fairly popular guy because I have all this space and a lot of teams are pushing the cap,” he said.
“I’ve always said there are three levels of deals—kick the tires, matching needs and the finer strokes. We have a number of things at level B but we’re still not quite there. Something can always come up during camp. We’re OK right now.”
