Sources tell me the Kings are close to announcing Flyers Assistant Head Coach Terry Murray as the next Head Coach of the LA Kings. No one on the Kings staff has been notified of such hire.

Kings GM Dean Lombardi has been busy interviewing candidates the last few weeks.

Other names the Kings have been rumored to be interested in include Mike Sullivan, Kevin Dineen, Randy Cunneyworth, and current Kings Assistant Mike Johnston.

Stay tuned.....



Blues Re-sign Defenseman Jeff Woywitka

Woywitka gets a two-way deal that will pay him $725,000 in the NHL and $100,000 in the AHL.

He has yet to sign but he has agreed to terms.


Woywitka will battle with Roman Polak and Mike Weaver for the final spots on "D".

Alex Pietrangelo could play himself into the mix as well.

The Blues have four defenseman on one way deals when you also include Erik Johnson.

Steve Wagner has a very strong shot to make the club as well.

Woywitka will need to clear waivers to be sent down to the AHL.


More to come,

Andy Strickland
