The Los Angeles Kings weren't able to land Teddy Purcell and Justin Schultz from the Edmonton Oilers, so they're still shopping ahead of the trade deadline.
The two clubs were thought to be inching toward a deal Saturday, but talks fell apart, the Oilers instead sending Purcell to the Florida Panthers and Schultz to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
TSN's Darren Dreger reports the Kings remain in the market for a forward and a defenseman, but adds that L.A. "doesn't seem keen on (Mikkel) Boedker."
The Arizona Coyotes' Boedker is probably the second-best winger available after Loui Eriksson, but a trade could be difficult to make since the clubs are Pacific Division rivals.
Boedker's playing out the final season of a contract paying him $3.75 million, and has 39 points (13 goals) in 62 games.
The Kings are the class of the Pacific, and have won four in a row. They're four points up on the Anaheim Ducks, who have a game in hand. L.A. also boasts the division's best goal differential at plus-24, which is second-best in the Western Conference.
