I guess I should try looking at the positives

Drew Doughty is a very gifted d-man so I guess we can look forward to having a strong blueline of Doughty, JMFJ, and Hickey

Yup. Well . . .

2nd, 32nd, 62nd, 92nd . . . is quite a bit better than:

3rd, 33rd, 63rd, 93rd . . .

notwithstanding any "conditional" or "compensatory" picks thrown in along the way.

Let's see... the last time the Kings picked second overall....

Winnipeg Jets get DALE HAWERCHUK (Hall Of Famer).

The Kings?

DOUG SMITH!


... uh.. ok, so 0/1 ain't bad... what happens this year may be different... who knows. All I know is most people remember who got picked #1... #2? Forget it!

GO LAKERS!

Did someone knock down the Gretzky statue in Star Plaza?



Oh and don't be so sure all of you, assuming Doughty at #2.

Unfortunately, at this point in the Kings history, Stamkos wouldn't help us. We have no defense. We need to build from the blueline and Daughty or Shenn or Bogosian will all be more beneficial to the team than Stamkos. Scoring 5 goals a game won't help when you give up 40-60 shots a game.

However, with our extra picks and Cammy expendable, we could trade for a 2nd line Center AND have a top 4 D, which will greatly improve the team.

I'm only 38, but I still have hope that the Kings will make it to the conference finals in my lifetime.

Im with you here. I half expected them to pull the Kings out of that 3rd envelope. It could have been worse.
