Last part of Athletic article on Maata:

“Olli Maatta will come in and be the hardest working guy in that room,” Lovejoy said. “He will be the first guy to enter the Kings dressing room in the morning. He’ll be the first guy on the ice and the last guy off the ice. The Kings are a rebuilding team with some young very high-end talent. For them to come and see a guy Olli Maatta with his two Stanley Cups, he’s a young role model and will do everything right on and off the ice."

With how good his play was in the bubble post-season, I'm thinking this was a really good trade (along with Chicago taking on part of cap hit) for this team and where they are at now.

I think Blake has learned well from DL.

So where then are the couple of criminals he'll be needing?
 
i don't have the athletic, lovejoy as in ben lovejoy? they played together right? that's high praise

Yep, Ben. They had like, all the former Pens in on that one too haha. Orpik was there.


So where then are the couple of criminals he'll be needing?

I think they retired that philosophy when they started actually became criminals
 
I want nothing to do with Laine...don't need that attitude and selfishness around.
That’s been my issue with the idea of trading for him in the first place. There is clearly a major effort to rebuild the team’s character, Laine does not fit.

The Athletic has the best hockey coverage. You can pretty much get an annual subscription at a discounted rate. I would highly recommend it. I've subscribed for 2 years now.

I hate subscription news sites, never subscribed to them, except for the Athletic. It has been well worth the value I paid. They post A LOT of Kings content. Lisa Dillman is a fantastic writer too!
 
Dobbers Draftcast draft review podcast really loved LA’s and Carolina’s draft. They are really high on Grans stating he is the 3rd best defenseman in the draft. Still listening to it and they hinted at a few more LA pucks they will talk about as steals.

Thomas and Turcotte
 
Hope the madden injury was not serious and taking him out was just a precaution. Good to hear the other guys did well.
 
alright pardon my idiocy but i can't make heads or tails of those time zones, i'm assuming the first is local time for edmonton (thanks for telling us on the graphic) but i've never even heard of MCK(MSK? moscow?) and i assume CET and EET are central and eastern euro but those times are off by 1 hour to me?

is edmonton on mountain time? so we're just -1hr from posted like ziggy says?

i wasn't ready for this
