Development camp correction
The roster released by the Kings for next week's development camp included goalie Jonathan Quick, but when I expressed surprise last night to Dean Lombardi about Quick's participation, Lombardi said Quick's name should not have been on the roster. Quick, Lombardi said, will be participating in extensive off-ice workouts with the veterans starting in the next few days.

How many guys are going to show to off season workouts? The next 3 weeks will tell us if we will be a playoff team or not.
Do we have to pay to go to the camp or is it free to attend??
this should be a nice way to get the summer started!
@ jet --- during the state of the franschise breakfast a couple of weeks ago, dl said about 10-12 players will be here during the summer to workout together. the chemistry and playoffs start now...
@ kevin --- camp is free. just park, walk-in, head down stairs and find a seat.
***just a note to all - if you plan on spending any length of time at the development camps or watch the other work-outs, i suggest bringing a seat cushion. the wood benches can really do a job on your ass after a while. trust me, from experience.
go kings!!!
Where's Lewis and maybe Moller. Curious to see if Moller gets bigger this summer. It's already been 2 months of offseason for the Kings and that's a lot of time in the gym.
Can't wait to hear reports about: Clifford, Elkins, Loktionov and Jones.
thx jedi
Where is the camp held and when is the best time to attend?
Thanks
Don't forget a good jacket. I always freeze my booty off there. ALWAYS.
@ Brian --- camp (both development and normal training camp) are held at the toyota sports center in el segundo. it is located on nash street about 1/2 mile south of the 105 freeway. nash has its own exit off of the 105. the times are listed on another string - fri, sat and sun next weekend.
@ rachel --- yes, good advice. it does tend to get cold in there. much colder than staples for hockey. fans are right up along the glass and nets. take her advice folks.
