From Mike Brophy at The Hockey News,
It’s not that I have high expectations for the Kings next season; I just like the direction the team is going. By building mainly through the draft, GM Dean Lombardi has ensured that when the Kings get good, they’ll be good for a long time.
I have no doubt there are Kings fans upset about the slow pace in which the team is rebuilding and wish Lombardi would sign a couple of veterans to get his club into the playoff hunt. But if he did, he might as well rename the Kings the Toronto Maple Leafs.
It takes patience to build a winner.

interesting… yes it’s hard to cope with this long, slow, drawn out process and be the butt of everyone’s stupid jokes at that (not really for good reason, when you imagine the extremely strong set of youth that will be on the ice in ‘08 and ‘09).
but the pace of signings and filling the remaining holes are what hurts.
