Ted Purcell has been with the Kings for a little more than a week but there are some in the organization who believe they've unearthed a gem.
Purcell has yet to score a goal in his four games with the parent club, but the University of Maine product led the American Hockey League in scoring with 53 points before his call-up from the Kings' affiliate in Manchester, N.H.
"He's a good player," Kings Coach Marc Crawford said. "And I think he's a very wise choice for our team to pick up as a free agent. He looks like he's going to be an extremely capable player."
