NHL Rumors: 3 Potential Trade Destinations For Kings' Jordan Spence
Los Angeles Kings defenseman Jordan Spence is picking up a lot of steam in the rumor mill with the summer here. Given the fact that he is a young defenseman with good upside, he could be a valuable trade chip for the Kings to use to bring in talent that improves their roster immediately.
Due to this, let's go over three potential landing spots for Spence now.
Detroit Red Wings
It is no secret that the Red Wings need to improve their blueline this offseason, so they could be a team to watch when it comes to Spence. The right side of their defense is not the strongest, and bringing in a player like Spence could help things on that front. When looking at their defensive group, Spence could slot nicely on their second pairing.
Ottawa Senators
The Senators have already been connected to Spence, and it is not challenging to understand why. The right side of the Senators' defense needs a makeover, and Spence could be a good addition to their top four and power play because of it.
Nashville Predators
After a disastrous season, it would not be too surprising if the Predators look to make some moves this offense. Their defense could use some serious help, and a blueliner like Spence could grab their attention because of it. He is also only 24 years old, so he could be a great fit on a Predators that needs impactful, young talent.
