Did anyone else notice that we were unable to sign one of our better 2007 Draft Picks Byran Cameron 1.25 points per game in Juniors? Then there’s the rumors of Jack Johnson father/agent contacting a Russian Team (BLUFF). Until we start signing 90+% of the better players in the Kings system to long term contracts we may have troubles getting into the playoffs. If we do have to trade good players ask yourself did we get good value in the Visnovsky trade? Did we in short contracts Cammarrelli or O’Sullivan?

Not to say Justin Williams is not a great player when 100%, but it has been awhile since that has been the case.

I have a feeling that unless Moller has a phenomenal camp he’s going to get sent to Manchester, because the top-six is pretty crowded. And that would be the best move for his development. I hope that Quick shows his play wasn’t a fluke. It happens all the time with goalies. Kopitar I’m not worried about – he has world-class skill, and more importantly he cares about improving and winning. It’d be different if he were the type to coast on his ability. He’s only going to be 22 this coming season. I think we’ll see another 75-85 point year before he breaks out.

Even if all the young players improve it’ll probably only lead to another modest improvement, like this past season. They still need outside help. But it does say something about the team’s progress that we’re now talking about only needing one or two players to put them into the playoffs. That wasn’t the case last year, when we didn’t know whether they’d have 4 NHL defensemen.

Another great article. After careful consideration and thought though, the answer to the big question as to whether they are ready to bear the burden is…………Nope.

It doesn’t sound like Murray is viewing Johnson as a guy with one foot out the door…
