Hughes had a terrible season, no way to sugarcoat it, for a 2nd round pick you expect a lot more as a sophomore player. You just have to hope he can transfer somewhere else and find his game. But it's certainly looking like an awful pick at this point.

Well, if he were draft eligible this season Hutson would be 100% going in the 1st round, so staying away from him in the 2nd probably wasn't a very wise move.
It was a horrible pick at the time. Would have been an OK pick with our third even then players I preferred there. Just makes and made no sense to begin with yet alone with our prospect pool.

Ironically at the same age, Jesus Christ was 165lbs with a 7% probability.
Lol, I probably would take Jesus 1st overall, over McDavid, not sure about Gretzky. I remember the saying "Jesus Saves, Gretzky Scores! So yeah, I'd go with Gretzky!"

I could of been worse too. They could of signed him to a 6 X 6. Glass is 3% full.


Tripped into the boards, upper body first.

Signing a goalie with only one real season of experience to 6x6 would be a dismissible offense on its own.

Wtf happened to V? I missed the third.

Was jus

Was just gonna post this - he's big and a lot of PIM's.

Blake is finally seeing what we are all seeing - Kings are getting creamed and the D is soft and will be even softer if Gavrikov walks and Edler retires. This is a big, mean LHD, who is already 22.

Yup, lot's of PMs for a college guy.

And yes, i'd say "maybe" Kings management was paying attention when Zadarov knocked Byfield around, with no push back whatsoever, as the team doesn't have anyone to rightfully push back. Sure wouldn't want to see Kempie drop the gloves with the monster. They "management and scouts" have mostly ignored the lack of muscle on the team. And not talking about getting a bunch of goons either. I'd like a newer version of Marty McSorley.
