One more thing

Forgot to mention...Crawford said that a couple players from Manchester might be on the way up to the Kings to get a look in the final couple games. The one name Crawford specifically mentioned was Lauri Tukonen, who had a brief stint with the Kings in February and played one game. Tukonen has 12 goals and 17 assists in 54 games with the Monarchs this season.

By the way, for anyone who has the sports package on a satellite dish, the Monarchs' game against Hartford tomorrow night will be televised on FSN New England.

Now that Owen Sound has been eliminated from the OHL playoffs (by
David Meckler and the London Knights), do you know if there are plans to bring Trevor Lewis up to the Kings or have him play in Manchester?

Not sure why Matt Moulson hasnt gotten any love lately. He has been on fire and got a hat trick tonight. I hope they bring Matt up for a shot.

I have DirectTv and will anxiously be watching Matt!!!

Lewis should probably start in Manchester. With all these guys coming up its gonna be jammed down there.

I'll check on Lewis, although I'm certain he won't be with the Kings. Manchester? Maybe, but that might be a bit of a stretch this season.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Moulson get a look. He's earned it.
