They should concentrate on the Kings family instead of pulling weak publicity stunts like that. They've licked balls for years.
You'd think they would be tired of the taste by now.
The summer has to be dedicated to your own players as well as a few tryout contracts on guys you have a chance to secure. Not kids who will go in the draft that you have no chance to sign at all as of now.
If they were a team in great shape, I'd think it's just a harmless waste of time. But it's the Kings. They have a whole lot more to care about than to draw attention stupidly.
I suppose you work in the marketing department of the NHL, right?
Oh you don't? Ahhhhhh I see.
The NHL needs to promote their marquee names and the prospect camp in LA attracts a lot of people. So what's the big deal? No one is going to get beat-up, checked from behind or slashed on the wrist. And the LA Kings have a top-notch core of youth to compliment a prospect like Crosby.
It's promotion for the NHL, nothing more, nothing less
Take it easy, have a beer and go bash the Rangers
