Kings Article: LA Kings Toss Lecavalier, Scheen Right Into the Fire Upon Arrival

[FrozenRoyalty]

As far as the local media knew, both Vincent Lecavalier and Luke Schenn, who fell victim to flight delays on January 7, were to undergo physical examinations, and would not play that evening against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

But the Los Angeles Kings coaching staff had other ideas, as both played in a 2-1 win over the Maple Leafs at Staples Center.

For comments from both players, along with their thoughts about the trade, check out...

We tried for Schenn(Luke).
Scheen(Charlie) is the guy with HIV.

Is that why we're winning?

Another write-up on Luke Schenn:

Luke Schenn finds comfort zone with LA Kings after trade

Schenn has since grown accustomed to seeing the Pacific Ocean now and then. He’s used to wearing T-shirts and shorts and flip flops to the Kings’ El Segundo practice facility. He’s learned to navigate the freeways, with Lecavalier acting as his carpool partner for trips to Staples Center.

Now if he could just find a good cheesesteak in Los Angeles, then he’ll be all set.

And if he has the time and the inclination, he’s up for a maiden voyage to In-N-Out Burger.

Most of all, Schenn is happy to be playing for the Pacific Division-leading Kings.

“It’s been a bit of an adjustment,†Schenn said Monday, one day before the Kings faced the Dallas Stars at Staples Center, his sixth game since the trade. “I’m just getting familiar with the guys on the team, the trainers, the coaches. I’m really enjoying it so far. It’s a great bunch of guys.

“The whole organization is unbelievable. The whole set up issecond to none.â€
