LAK Assistant General Manager returns to tee up the upcoming Rookie Tournament.

In this episode, John and DB lead off discussing non-hockey sports. They also touch on Pierre-Luc Dubois' comments about not feeling at home with the Kings, Rob Blake's involvement in coaching, and the upcoming rookie faceoff tournament. The first period concludes with a discussion about moving on from the PL Dubois content and focusing on prospects.

KOTP Bullet Points:

• Drew Doughty's visit to the LA Rams preseason camp was entertaining, and he explained why he is a Saints fan.
• The Rams play with intensity and heart, unlike the Yankees who often lack effort.
• Pierre-Luc Dubois' comments about not feeling at home with the Kings raise questions about his attitude and commitment.
• Rob Blake's involvement in coaching and his willingness to get on the ice with players is commendable.
• The conversation about Dubois should be put to rest and the focus should shift to prospects and the upcoming rookie faceoff tournament.
• LA Kings prospects to watch in college hockey: Jared Wright, Ryan Conmy, Kenny Connors, and Jack Hughes
• Former King Pavel Rosa's number is being retired in the Quebec League
• The Kings have added a sponsor patch to their road jerseys
• Changes to radio and TV broadcasts of Kings games: simulcasts on AM 710 and streaming on the ESPN LA app
• Daryl Evans will be appearing on the Sirius XM NHL Network Radio Power Play show on Tuesday with DB
