Short version: Two or three out of every ten picks will turn into a viable roster player. One, maaaybe two, of those will be someone special. And it takes two or three years from the draft for the player to develop, sometimes less, sometimes more. Long version: Class of 2000 (GM Dave Taylor) Alex...

LAT (Helene Elliott) – Watching Kings’ Run Has Been Great for Gretzky “It’s been unreal what they’ve done and what they’ve accomplished so far,” Wayne Gretzky said Wednesday. “It’s been unreal for the organization and it’s been great for hockey in California and L.A.

By
April 21, 2012

I don’t like Raffi Torres. I think he tries to hurt people. And checks like he so often delivers are exactly the kind that need to be eliminated from hockey. But I can’t say the 25-game suspension handed down by the league for the hit on Marian Hossa makes a whole lot of sense...

I’ve never believed in God, and and I’ve always thought religion in general is a farce, but I’ve also always said that if there was one thing that would every make me turn to Jesus, it’s hockey. I’ve finally been led to the point where I seriously believe it’s time to pray, and I...

Commenter GaVaHokie January 11th, 2010 9:55 am: God, I hope the rumors are true that Dean Lombardi is in town along with Jay Grossman… I hope that means they are discussing a sign and trade with the Kings!! That should get us a HUGE return… I’ll speculate that it will get us Dustin Brown,...
