Note ...
Kings have used up 50 of their 50 Max SPC's,
PLUS w/ Prospects 74 of their 90 Max Players in the System.
================================================== ====


OK, this will be another work-in-progress post that we should work on as the team and season progress, that I'm adding to this sticky so we don't lose it ...

This is based around Dean Lombardi's principles and the plan he seems to have in place to make the Kings a contender, regarding his Prospect "Reserve List" of Age Groups, "CORE" players already on the team he wants to retain, and his "Fillers, Bridges & Builders" comment about the Free Agent market.

Builders = 'guy who's here when young players come into lineup and still help be a Contender'
Bridges = 'guy that helps the young players that you've got become better players'
Fillers = 'one-year deal warm body types'
