Fagemo is 24 years old, 6' 200lbs, and scored 43 goals and 62 points in 50 AHL games last season. What am I missing?

He's a volume shooter more so than a sniper. He hasn't read plays well enough to get the same amount of looks in the NHL. The rest of his game is really passive. He couldn't find any other ways to contribute if he wasn't getting his chances.

Classic AAAA player who just doesn’t have the horses to make it at the next level.

New Martin Frk.

I didn't even realize Studnicka had signed on with the Kings. Neat. Seems like a solid player to have on your farm team who you could call up to fill a few minutes and not really hurt you, but not really accomplish much either. I'm sure he'll clear, so it's not a bad thing to have that as a "15th Forward" stashed down in the minors.

It kind of sucks that the Kings have send Copley under the bus so many times. He has been the best goalie since Quick went to shit but they don't want to give him a chance to prove himself. Yes he was hurt but damn give him a chance again.

Victor Olofsson without that wicked of a shot.

New Martin Frk.

Frk had a shot but couldn't skate to save his life so he failed even in Switzerland. Fagemo is much better rounded player that way and much better player in general, going to make some Swiss team very happy in a year or two.

Yet another casualty of the PLD acquisition and subsequent offloading.
