Interview with Lauri Tukonen
Here's Lauri Tukonen, the Kings' first-round pick in 2004. We were a bit rushed, so Lauri's answers were a tad short. But he was excited to talk, and is anxious to play more games on the big club this season.
Check out his spill on the second action sequence. It looks worse than it was, but it makes me wince every time I watch it. I felt the same way when O'Sullivan was hammered during the prospect game, and skated back to the locker room in the middle of the first period. You'd hate to see these guys get hurt during a camp.
Matt Murray has been a Kings fan since the late '80s, when Wayne Gretzky grabbed headlines by defecting to the West Coast. Since then, he has been a card-carrying bandwagon member as the club soared in popularity with their sole Stanley Cup appearance to their position near the bottom of the Pacific. But things are looking brighter, as he is anxious to witness the rise of the new Kings.
