Prokhorkin is 18+14 after 33 games in the KHL. His contract is over after this season, and considering he hasn't still signed a new one, it looks like he's going to come to NA. I bet, the Kings management wouldn't mind to get him on the team.

Futa has said they want him and that Proks told them he wouldn’t resign in the KHL, so yes... hopefully he finally comes over!!!

The Reign are experimenting with Kurtis MacDermid on LW tonight vs Iowa on the road.

Dominik Kubalik has 18 goals and 40 points after 35 games in the Swiss league.

He is younger and better.

He is younger but he is nowhere near better..

 

[Frolov 6'3]

He is younger but he is nowhere near better..

You have no idea.

Only thing Prokhorkin has on him, is flashiness.

Kubalik is faster, has a better wrister and even an incredible slapper. Leading PPG scorer for his team the last few years.

Does not play with former NHL stars, he leads by example.

Kubalik consistently shows he can score at a high level in the leagues he plays in. On video you can see an NHL release. Not sure about his all around game, but I would certainly think he is worth a shot. Younger too.

Akil Thomas is absolutely en fuego.

Akil FULLY getting off...takes puck in the face and scores on breakaway.

POTN – Akil Thomas Takes One, Scores One – Ontario Hockey League

63 pts in 38 games should be raising eybrows and other things....one goal away from his 22 last year. Loving the last 3 2nd rounds for the Kings: Clague. JAD. Thomas.
Maybe the Kings should trade their #1's for 2 second round choices!

Thomas has been playing well. He has 2 goals and an assist against a strong Guelph team. Scoring a personal best 23 goal with plenty of hockey left to raise that mark. 4-3 victory for Niagara and Thomas was 2nd star.

To equate having a better slapper to being a better player is ridiculous! He maybe faster and have a better shot but he lacks the board play, creativity, and the versatility of Prokhorkin... and with any luck both will be brought over and you’ll get to see that first hand.

Akil Thomas is absolutely en fuego.

where does thomas rank for you guys in the kings top 10 list now? is vilardi still 1 despite all the injuries?
who's the biggest surprise this year? biggest disappointment? biggest riser from september?

Vilardi still has the highest potential out of everyone and should still be #1. Biggest surprise? Probably Markus Phillips. I don't think anyone thought much about him, but making the Canadian WJC team is very impressive despite their shortcomings this year. Biggest Disappointment? I can't think of anybody, but I'm sure a lot of people will say Kale Clague even though I vehemently disagree. He had a bad preseason and start in AHL, but from what I've heard from Stothers is that he has gotten better. Biggest riser? Akil probably with Mikey Anderson I think.

I posted this list in another thread a couple weeks ago:

1. Gabriel Vilardi
2. Cal Petersen
3. Jaret Anderson-Dolan
4. Rasmus Kupari
5. Mikey Anderson
6. Kale Clague
7. Akil Thomas
8. Markus Phillips
9. Bulat Shafigullin
10. Johan Sodergran

Though I realize I forgot Sheldon Rempal, so I probably would have put him at 9.

It can be modified with a bit of wiggle room, but I think it's fair to say most of these players aren't more than one spot off.

That's a good list, I guess it depends on what the threshold is for a prospect (age, # of NHL games player or not).
