Kings Article: Beyond LA Kings’ Wildest Dreams: Vincent Lecavalier

[FrozenRoyalty]

In all likelihood, if someone told you that they expected center Vincent Lecavalier to be more than a third-line, energy-creating checking center for the LA Kings after coming over from the Philadelphia Flyers a few weeks ago, they were either dreaming or lying.

Nevertheless, Lecavalier has given the Kings a lot more than they, or anyone else, for that matter, expected, and he's turning heads while doing it.

To read about Lecavalier's rejuvenation and what he thinks the reasons for it are, check out:

Nah, not me.

Sometimes, players like VL, just need a change of scenery and a chance. I'm very happy for VL, and the Kings.

Ditto. I may not have posted it but I did tell several other people that he might even seen PP time. He still has the hands and a change of scenery sometimes can be a huge difference maker.

glad my hometown boy and hero as a kid is looking good in LA. He definitely deserves it. Seems like he was treated like a pile of dog poop since getting bought out. Old man still has it.

Since the other thread is locked...Meant to post this the other day.

In final season, Vinny Lecavalier looks to recreate glory from Lightning days

Lecavalier heard Los Angeles was first interested in the summer, with trade talks heating up after Jan. 1. And while at the Philadelphia airport Jan. 6, the Flyers' charter to Minnesota was held while Lecavalier had a conference call with the Kings brass. If a deal was done, Lecavalier wouldn't get on the plane.

Lecavalier was never so happy to miss a flight.
