^ Met him at Sport Chalet along with Matt Greene. Both were very friendly.

I think I remember him more for this commercial than his actual play on the ice

I remember seeing this commercial randomly pop up and being like wait... isn't that our back-up goaltender?!? What's he doing in a directTV commercial.

Kings backup goalies must've been really popular casting choices for commercials.

Speaking of goalies. Remember Adam Hauser? He played one game. He had the unfortunate luck of playing in Buffalo.
Buffalo used to be the twilight zone for the Kings. I recall multiple games in which the Kings would go up there and get their asses completely destroyed. Just odd weird games. Adam had the unfortunate luck of playing for LA in one of those games.
His career stat line:

Quite a few one game appearances by Kings goalies in that era. Travis Scott was another one. Mathieu Chouinard, and before them there was Pauli Jaks and J.C. Bergeron.

Ryan Smyth was productive as a top line winger in his two years here so I can’t really put him in the same category as Roenick, Iginla, and Kovalchuk.

Unfortunately, not being from L.A. I've only ever seen them play live once, thankfully a home game. Pavol Demitra was the star of the team at the time. For that and for his tragic death just a few years later certainly one Kings player I'll never forget.

I never gave him his due or would even give him any credit because Luc was traded for him. Luc was my favorite player without question and I was livid at that trade

Luc and Rob are a waste of time and money.
He’s failing and succeeding at the same time. He was bad as a top pair D with LA. With WPG, he was less glaringly bad. And I’m guessing the Bruins think he won’t have a chance to look bad very much if he’s on their third D pair for the majority of the season.
I think Forbort is going to age well with this move. Become one of those big defenseman who is good enough to reliably chip the puck off the glass 2-3 times a shift.

This is tough man.
He underwhelmed here and never lived up to his draft position. He has slow foot speed and can get burned by the speedsters. We are bitter here because we protected him over McNabb in the Vegas ED.
That being said, he did look better in the Peg than he did here.
I have a lot of faith in your organization. You guys are well run and tend to get the most of out players. That being said, I don't think he is winning a Norris anytime soon, but I think you guys can make him a serviceable 5th or 6th if the stars all line up

Well-said. If Forbort is on your team's top pairing, you're gonna' have a bad time - the more he plays, the more his limitations become apparent. He's fine as a #5-6; he's not a prolific goal-scorer, but he's decent enough at moving the puck. Just don't expect much physicality, despite his size (and, for as decent a straight-line skater as he is for a big guy, he doesn't move particularly well laterally - while a King, I recall he got beat wide fairly often).

Well I actually traveled to ATL to see the Thrashers smoke both Fukafuji and Barry Brust so badly. They pulled Fukafuji and then had to mercy pull Brust in the second or third period. The fans were extremely friendly and didn't pile on as I walked out of the stadium at the end.

I did something similar at the signing event at Staples. I forget who all was at the table (I want to say it was Williams, Fraser, Regehr, and Shultz), but I remember telling Jeff Shultz I was just getting the guys that were on the cup winning team to sign my 2012 Championship Book. And I didn't have (or care to) him sign anything.My favorite Cammi Part 2 memory is going to a Kings signing event and having Dustin Brown sign my commemorative 2012 Cup run book on his page and then handing Cammi a napkin to sign instead
