I feel bad for Evans as he is a very good color man. He took a demotion and now sits in between the benches in his colorful suits and gets to chime in a few times. Maybe he should take Patrick's place with Stollie.
Trivia returns to the postgame show tomorrow night.
Only reasonable explanation is they wanted someone young that could potentially span multiple generations, like Bob did. Appreciate Nick while we still have him, it’s going to suck when he has to hang em up.
I think that's the exact reason Alex was chosen. They were thinking long term. Wanted a young guy they could invest in and be the new voice of the Kings for decades to come.
Signed game worn Stanley Cup 2012 pucks or jerseys shouldn't be too hard to get for you right?
The man is a straight up G
And they will have to do the same thing in the near future, Nick already stated he'd only be doing this for a couple years. Let's hope the next guy they get doesn't come off like he's trying to sell you a used car,
I thought it was the opposite. He wanted the tv gig but was never offered because they wanted someone young to take over for a long, long time.
I don't know. He looks like he lives a pretty awesome life to me.
I was at the last preseason game at home -- got there early with my kid and we saw Stoll at the broadcast area just going over notes. I called out to him to say hi, he came right over and chatted it up with us...so cool. He had zero obligation to do that and I'm convinced he just must be a really nice guy.
He is, I've seen him a few times and he is always generous with his time, not only to fans but also to the players. He keeps up with the team in fitness, showing them how to be pros, bringing that winning mentality, and spends many hours working on plays, faceoffs, and honing various skills. I've been almost more impressed with his impact and presence in the organization off the ice than I was when he was on it. I hope he sticks around for a long time kind of like Evans.
