As I said while talking about the Sharks’ position at seventh-overall, it’s pretty hard to predict who will still be available for the Kings to select with the eighth pick. That said, while this class may not be at the same caliber as those of some of the last few years, the Kings will have a good chance of selecting a future key player at eighth overall.
Leading up to the draft, I’ll be releasing articles looking at who the Kings could select.
