Personally I'd like to see Chromiak go and rip up the OHL with S Wright and Z Wisdom then head overseas to play 2-3 seasons in Europe and then make his LA debut ala my Avatar

Martin will not need 2-3 seasons in Europe. He's better served to play in Ontario next year and be on the Kings for 23-24...if not sooner.

I like when players play less games leaving more time for the Weight room and the AHL doesn't afford him that! When I take out my "Crystal Ball" I see a Kubalik kind of future but this time LA doesn't blow it and Chromiak becomes a scoring Star Winger

If blowing it you mean trading him for a 5th/6th/whatever to Chicago, I agree. If you mean blowing it in his development immediately post-draft, the kid took care of that himself by dropping a deuce for two years right after getting selected.
 
Anyone know who Ray Martyniuk is/was? A dollar goes to lucky guy who comes up 4-5 things about the great !
 
Ray Martyniuk(5-8) the 1st goaltender drafted in the First round in the common(NHL) draft by the Montreal Canadiens. Played with Powerhouse Flin Flon Bombers! Ray was a diminutive goaltender and once played for the Seattle Totems of the WHL when it was a Pro circuit.It was said that Martyniuk got so sick and tired of goaltending that he tossed his goaler equipment int Moyie lake,BC after a Championship loss. He passed away in Panama. As a kid I thought he'd make it and back up Gilles Meloche(5-9) one of my favorite goaltenders(Rogie Vachon-5-7)) being the other
 
Yup, a Ray by any other name is still andys
I'm a Kings fan for going on 51 years and a Seattle Kraken from the moment they were accepted to the NHL brotherhood! I imagine Seattle will get a King or two from waivers soon
 
Thought I'd bump this despite the WJC going on... this kid is in need of some of his own love after his showings already in tourney along with his play at Development Camp 4 months ago.

What an absolute steal at Round 5, Pick 128.

Def. the next Pavelski / Jamie Benn.



Kingston Frontenacs assistant coach Chris Longo refers to him as a silent assassin. Ivan Fenes, the head coach of Slovakia’s under-20 team, refers to him as a killer.
 
Nice article. It sounds like a lot of the criticism of his game leading up to the draft I’d no longer valid, which is great to read. It seems he’s really developing quickly and he’s going to pushing hard to get a shot next training camp. One thing is certain, with hindsight, he’s no longer a 5th round pick.
