Pretty much everything we would expect. Open to drafting offensive talent, but focusing mainly on size and grit. Looking for big defensemen and goaltending depth. Same old Kings drafting

So pretty much it will be a big rugged forward or defensemen early... Then maybe smaller skilled players later in the draft... Isnt that how we usually draft?

Futa mentioned the possibility of getting back into the second round. Sounds like they have a few players in mind in the second round .

 

[Peter James Bond]

It was great to hear that Yanetti said that Nick Shore is already making great progress, working with Nelson Emerson. Sounds like Shore may make a big impact in Manchester this year. If so, he will then be ready to challenge for Stoll's spot, once Stoll's contract ends.

I am hoping that they can package Martinez with a 4th or 5th, to move up into the top half of the second round.

I would like them to draft Robert Hagg if he falls out of the first round.

Shore will be Stoll's replacement. No question about it.
