3. LA Kings Trade Target: Travis Sanheim

Soon to turn 25, Travis Sanheim would be an underrated acquisition for Rob Blake. He’s spent the bulk of his time on the Flyers’ second pairing, but he’s played several games on the top pairing as well.

He broke into the league in the 17-18 season, tallying 10 points in 49 games. Like Dunn, his sophomore season has been his best to date, with Sanheim tallying nine goals and 26 assists in 35 games. He’s an asset on the power play and a terrific distributor of the puck.

Sanheim would be the toughest to pluck from their respective teams. A guy that is still growing into his body at 6-foot-3, 181 pounds, he’s set to become a restricted free agent at season’s end.
