Give Kempe the C.
Kempe is in his prime now and just knows how to play all phases of offense reliably. He has consistency, great mobility, speed, and high end shot accuracy. He is worth the money, but his new contract should be 4-5 years. Long term deals hasn’t been great for the Kings most of the time.
He’ll probably be your next captain. His floor is 8M/yr. Any where between 8-9M is a fair deal. 10M might be too much.
Kempe is better than PLD. So price will be hefty.
You didn’t mention how good looking he is too ….LOL,all my princess and queen fan friends ,they all love kempe !
Obligatory Supportive Comment
Price starts a 10M / year, don't forget salary cap is going way up over the next couple of years.
Tell Drew to give Kempe some of his salary, its only fair.
Too bad Kopitar
s game isn't based on speed.
Kempe…one of the best cheap shot artists too.
Why would Kempe sign with the Kings if the teams in no state income tax offer the same amount of money?
Why would Ken Holland care about the second half of a future Kempe contract as he will be retired by then?
8-9M will be perfect
Kempe should be the “ C “
Give him 6y x10M. I think it's a mistake to pay him double digit millions in his year 36 and 37 seasons
coming from the other side of the 4 oilers vs la series…guys an absolute weapon. a noticeable threat that has about 50 different ways to score, and he plays a responsible game as well. always a problem for the opponent when he’s on the ice. give him some bills, or someone else will!
