Notes from Jon Rosen (LAKings Insider) on potential Kings rosters.

–The preseason is upon us! The LA Kings and Arizona Coyotes will play a pair of split-squad games at Staples Center and Gila River Arena on Tuesday. The full lineups aren’t yet available, but there were plenty of hints dropped in today’s practice sessions. The Los Angeles game group is expected to be today’s first group and should contain a contingent of players that includes Anze Kopitar, Ilya Kovalchuk, Dustin Brown, Drew Doughty, Adrian Kempe and Jonathan Quick. Jaret Anderson-Dolan was in this group. It’s expected that today’s second group will be those traveling to Glendale, Arizona, and will feature the likes of Jeff Carter, Tanner Pearson, Tyler Toffoli, Dion Phaneuf, Paul LaDue, Oscar Fantenberg, Kale Clague, Jack Campbell and Peter Budaj. Asked to confirm this, John Stevens let out a sly smile. “I’m not sure,” he responded.

Coyotes donated 10,000 tickets to Youth Hockey/Community Groups for tonight's game.

"Captain Oliver Ekman-Larsson is expected to make his preseason debut in the game staged in Glendale."

f*** the Kings.

 

[moosemeister]

Man, hopefully all 10,000 of those tickets are being used.

My favorite game of the year is when they have the choirs singing near Christmas. The kids singing and screaming as loud as they can gives that building energy that we don't feel most of the year.

Then they run around unsupervised during play

Raanta starting here, Kuemper starting in LA

So we are likely going to get smoked out in Cali

Holy shit that away roster is brutal.

 

[Tad Mikowski]

I wish Strome was playing at home. I wanna see how he looks.

Holy **** that away roster is brutal.

Going up against most of the Kings regulars, too.

Home: Arizona Coyotes vs. Ontario Reign

OR:

Home: Team Premium
Away: Team Sticky

^^^ Rarely do I hand out likes.... but some just scream for it.

 

[Neighborhood Coyote]

The way that roster is broken down, looks like a challenge from Tocchet to those away team guys to step up and show the team what they have. Basing that on his interview after the Vegas game with some of the comments he made. Probably looking to see who rises to the occasion. Perhaps? lol.

Or maybe not. Idk!

 

[TheLegend]

Dave Vest confirmed via Twitter that the game will be on ESPN 620 Radio.

Heeter and BizNasty with the call.

Either that or kicking the back of your seat.

Kings roster for GRA..

 

[Name Nameless]

Holy **** that away roster is brutal.

I can't help noticing Schnarr is listed out of order on the away-roster. Someone got sick or something? With the exception of the goalies, he is the only one, so as a typical conspiracy minded person (OK. Not to much. ) I think it means something.

On another note, is there any updates of the kind "this player is sent to his OHL-team" anywhere?

Some thoughts from Toch on last game:

Tocchet singled out the strong performances of Lyubushkin (11 hits, three penalties) and Oesterle (one goal) in a loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday in Nevada. Lyubushkin is the only legitimate candidate the Coyotes have to replace the physical game lost when Luke Schenn departed in free agency.

“There’s parts of his game that he wants to learn and improve on but there’s parts of his game that I really like,” Tocchet said. “He did a nice job of stopping some cycles. He cleared the front of the net. “I think that with his foot speed, he plays the right way with surfing and gapping up. He’ll be fine. His hockey IQ is good. He’s got to be careful with the penalties but I didn’t think they were egregious penalties.”

Fun fact: Heethuis is Dutch for "hothouse."

So if you went to Brussels, "Lafleur, Heethuis" would translate to "the flower, hothouse"?

Correct.

Literal translations of names can be pretty amusing. Eric Desjardins was "Eric of the gardens." Brian Boucher was Brian Butcher.

^^I figured he meant 'Ullstrom' there, but googled 'David Ullmer' anyway, and the images shown are kind of funny, in a "which of these might be an NHLer?" way...
