@NHLFoley Yeah it was 2005 with Kopi and Quickie drafted by Taylor.

@NHLFoley I thought Dave Taylor drafted Kopi. But memory is not rock solid.
English
Drafted the player in front of him, didn't look at the fluff. Ended up with a ton of pros in his system. Kempe and Roy continue to succeed. Doughty might get the 'C', Schenn got it in St Louis
Pretty cool repertoire put together by the #GoKingsGo and Lombardi in their heyday

@NHLFoley Dean Lombardi Sharks/Kings please

@mattshumer_ @AnthropicAI Same for me. Thinking of cancelling Max even though Fable is my favorite model. I can’t have my model locked in the middle of a project like just now.
Even if Anthropic doubles my usage what good is a model if I can’t trust it in crunch time?

@ProfDBernstein My dad spoke Litvak Yiddish which I speak now. He used yid and yidden the same way I would say Jew or Jews. There was no additional context to it - no private meaning.
My Yiddish pronunciation is different from most Yiddish speakers I know, so it isn’t common in the US.
English
Despite growing in a family in which both of my parents grew-up in households where Yiddish was spoken and attending day schools and yeshivas, I'm not sure I have ever heard any Jewish acquaintance refer to Jews as "yids" or even "yidden."

What?! My team’s 5th round pick and camp invitee are both superstars who are ready to score 30 goals this year, did you not see how awesome they looked in that dev camp scrimmage??

Boy what I would give for a Tobias Bjornfot right now.
Florida Panthers PR@FlaPanthersPR
The #FlaPanthers have extended qualifying offers to forward Ben Steeves and defensemen Tobias Bjornfot and Mikulas Hovorka.

@MarcelAndRogie I research them the day of the draft. Luckily my superior intelligence plus my ability to optimize Google puts me on par or even ahead of most scouts.
English
My question is when do you guys find all this time to watch all these draftable hockey players play in junior and in Europe?
How can you be more knowledgeable about it than our scouts?
I got my hands full just watching NHL hockey.
This is always a leap of faith.

@DooleyLAK @NHLRussell @AStanovich68 Is the center position important to teams "going for it?" <Sorry - I know you have a job to do...>
English
@NHLRussell @AStanovich68 I'd love to see the Kings add a top-six center without creating a huge hole elsewhere.
If that can't happen, I'd rather try 9 or 14 at center & try to add a winger than overpay in a trade, overpay on a contract or sign a 3C to play 2C. Just my opinion.
English
You know what? I don’t hate it, I don’t love it, but I don’t hate it either.

Also in today's Ken Holland press conference - Peter Laviolette spoke with Adrian Kempe about potentially playing center this season. Alex Laferriere remains an option as well and the Kings hope to negotiate with some UFA's at center as well. TLDR - Lots of options there.
English
@LockedOnLAKings With my 15 minutes of research I'd have picked Belchetz too. Then I remember how Kaliev was a steal where we got him. And then I remember how excited I was about <insert string of prospects here> on draft day. Life is too short.

He said Belchetz
Kona@Konapupp
@LockedOnLAKings Ask Sebastian if he would take Belchetz or Hemansson. We really shit the bed today

@LockedOnLAKings What are we thinking Eddie? I haven't been following prospect beyond the top 3. I assume Kenny would have traded this pick. Seems slick. If he gets to the NHL...

With the 19th pick of the NHL Draft, the Los Angeles Kings have selected Elton Hermansson RW, Modo

@MarcelAndRogie 35% chance they don't have them at the end of the first round.

Why do I have a feeling Vegas will never use these picks?

Mollie Walker@MollieeWalkerr
#NYR acquiring Pavel Dorofeyev from Vegas in exchange for the No. 26 pick, the No. 92 pick and a conditional 2028 first-round pick (condition on the pick is top-10 protected), per source.

@MarcelAndRogie I grew up in Montreal. It has many lovely aspects. No way it is number 1.
English
What Canadian made this list? Says they factor in weather. Then picks all places with shitty weather for the top 10. 🤣
BTW, St. Louis is the worst major city I've ever been to in my life. Terrible weather. Huge crime rate. Terrible roads and traffic.
And no. NYC is not the worst place you could live. lol
English
@MarcelAndRogie @JWPatarino That’s where Darnell Nurse comes into play…
English
@JWPatarino They got a culture problem, so let's bring in EP40 and Laine. Maybe we can get PLD back and put them all on one line. lol
English
Is there anything that makes less sense than Patrick Laine to the #LAKings? #GoKingsGo
English
So Robertson turned down $15m AAV from Seattle.
They have no state tax. I thought that was the massive advantage…
I guess going to competitive team matters more… shocking.
English
@JonathanWillis Are there any elite goalies available under 33? What would you pay for the two (?) supposedly elite goalies available now?
English
Incidentally, just in general terms, people who think the Hurricanes aren't willing to pay for elite goaltending are wrong.
The Hurricanes are just smart enough not to pay for non-elite goaltending, and most of the goalies available every year are of the non-elite variety.
English
@MartinDevon They're chasing it. Just like a degenerate gambler.
English
Winners/leaders don't quit on their teams.
Nothing worse than a millionaire crybaby.
I don't think you can flip character on like a switch just because you now play on a different team.
Learn from PLD. #GoKingsGo

Pierre LeBrun: Re Elias Pettersson/Canucks: I think there's concern about...how much of the former EP40 that even a fresh start can deliver; I think it's more likely than not he's still in Vancouver [to start next year] - OverDrive (6/22)
