Firing away
All-but-meaningless stat of the day: In six games, Dustin Brown recorded 33 shots on goal, the most of any NHL player in the preseason.
Completely-meaningless-but-fun stat of the day: Vladimir Dravecky tied for the NHL lead in shooting percentage during the preseason. He scored one goal...and took one shot. Who said the Kings couldn't achieve perfection?

Combine the two and the cup is OURS!
I believe it was Anthony who said that. Or perhaps Sean Avery.
Completely unbelievable quote of the day:
"It took a day or two for it to kind of sink in and, now, I couldn't be happier." -Sean O'Donnell
That's good news for my fantasy hockey club.
Wonder if Vlad "30 Days of Night" Dravecky will ever develope into anything.
Anyone know where we can find preseason stats?
The kings can't give up on Purcell so soon. They should give him a chance, at least 10 games to see where he is at with his development. Then make a decision whether to keep him with the big club or send him back to the minors. Moller, no question is a more rounded player who knows the game. But is he ready to play with the big boys in this league?
Rich, let me know what your thoughts are.
