Who would you pick if we stay at 4

[kilowatt]

Walker and Roy are no slouches,so why would LA take Drysdale? Kings want to be a high scoring team,so I'd take the best forward...could be Rossi,Raymond or Holtz

Vilardi and Anderson-Dolan are no slouches, so why take Turcotte?

Turcotte and Vilardi are no slouches, so why take Rossi?

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Torgersson was a player that continually popped up on the draft simulations I ran as well at pick 46 or 56.

In one of my mock drafts I had the Kings taking Torgersson also at the Vancouver slot and Vegas slot,LA acquired!

If you remember Vilardi was(a Big If) and maybe coming back...as for Anderson-Dolan he'll play the Wing for the Kings and besides Turcotte has talent and skill the former two don't have. And they are all youngsters,while Walker and Roy are established and will be tough to unseat...What does the coach do shift Walker to LD?

 

[LAKings88]

I like the Prospects I just don't think the Kings take any except Perreault if lasts into the second round...His Papa(Yanic) played for the Kings too!

That simulator is pretty off honestly but it gives a general idea.

Not to mention Walker may end up in Seattle -- assuming of course that the city is no longer under occupation.

Kings will protect Walker!

Doubtful. Kings will protect DD, MR and a probable UFA or trade that they acquire. I think Clague is eligible as well and if he turns out well he needs to be dealt with. The only way I see them protecting Walker is if they sign a throwaway like Hutton or the young eligible forwards crap out and he only needs to protect 4 forwards. I think Blake will go after a potential top 4 D because he sees the pacific as pathetic and there is no reason the Kings shouldn't go for a playoff spot.

Oh wow, is he actually Yannick's kid? I figured it was a common enough name that I didn't even bother to look.

What's fun is turning the randomness alllll the way up for max chaos, gives you a better idea of 'clusters' or tiers of players that should be available, which is a good general strategy for when the team in front of you inevitably yoinks one of your picks.

 

[KingCanadain1976]

Kings should draft Drysdale Drew needs someone to help reduce his time on ice. In a few year Drysdale will be capable of helping reduce it. He would also help the pp very much which has been a weakness.

And with the Sharks and Ducks either in front of us or behind us the Kings need to pull moves that distances themselves from them so they don't yank that coveted player from our grasp...but then again a few years ago the Sharks took Scott Reedy just before Mikey Anderson...loved that choice Andie's going to be a solid,very good D-man for us! Him and Big(Bjorn)Fot!

You are kidding me right? Kings will protect Walker you can count on that,since they will give him a big raise soon and because his play warrants it! Walker is versatile,can play the PP and is solid! Is he DDoughty,no but who is? One of Blake's better signings. As for LA signing a D-man in the off-season look for a 1 year bridge player no more than that and yes Clague is going to be in the conversation and he along with Quick and Amadio are the top 3 Kings I'd be looking at in the Expansion draft for the Seattle team!

Riddle me this Batman: What do you get when you cross Orel Hershiser with Steve Sax?

Orel Sax!

Why couldn't Steve Sax play 3rd base?

 

[KINGS17]

Orel Sax!

Why couldn't Steve Sax play 3rd base?

Hell, Sax was throwing it into the 1st base dugout on a ground ball hit to 2nd base. No way he could ever find his way to 3rd base.

 

[HookKing]

Orel Hershiser - 59 consecutive scoreless innings

Don Drysdale - 58 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings

One of the toughest records in baseball to break, and may never be broken again.

Any hockey players named Hershiser out there?

Riddle me this Batman: What do you get when you cross Orel Hershiser with Steve Sax?

Easy, that would be a ball flying into the first base dugout while skillfully missing all the bats in the racks.

I had my Steve's mixed up.

Why couldn't Steve Howe, play 3rd base? He kept snorting up the line.
