Kings Goaltending Factory Readies The Next Prospect

While there’s usually no such thing as a sure bet in sports, two things come pretty close – Dean Lombardi is going to package some assets to move up or down a few spots at the NHL Draft and he’s likely to select a goaltender.

Since taking over the Kings’ GM job in 2006, he’s picked up six netminders in those eight drafts. At the same time, it’s almost mind boggling to think about the transformation the organization has gone through over such a short span, moving from a team with a rather horrific goaltending history, to being one of the deepest teams in the entire league between the pipes.

Expecting Holden to say his usual good things. Will back him too. Bartosak is a damn good prospect, especially for where he was drafted.

He set a franchise record for saves in a season a week or two ago.

I hadn't seen him prior to our drafting him and have only seen two-three games since (two of which were losses actually) and he looked fantastic in each. Solid, only goals against were unstoppable. Obviously small sample size but looked great and showed emotion. Still early but great pick imo
