Bring back the old Silver and Black jersey from the early 90's.

I don't hate our current jersey, but there is a reason why the Raiders make so much money with their merchandise, they have cool colors!! Purple doesn't sell. I know they're considered 'gang colors' or whatever, but it's still $$ in the bank for the Kings.

I hope the 3rd jersey they're coming out with has the old silver+black colors.

Why not cut back on the coaching staff a bit, don't we have the biggest coaching staff in the NHL?

It doesnt seem like the coaching staff is doing anything all that great seeing as we came in last place.....sorry second to last.
