In case certain Hurricanes fans aren't up on their Kings news ahead of tonight's game, let's review:

• Drew Doughty is back, ahead of schedule!

• Not that it matters so much, since with Drew out, Vladislav Gavrikov slid over to RD, he and Mikey Anderson became one of the best pairs in the League, and the Kings have led in all sorts of defensive metrics so far this year.

• Not that that matters so much, as L.A.'s power play has been rancid all season, and with the team averaging a whopping 1.50 GPG over the last six, they're now in the bottom of the scoring overall.

About the only cause for worry Carolina has tonight is if they manage to knock it into their own net, as Moritz Seider did in Detroit.

(Not that THAT helped, as after the gift gave L.A. a 2-0 lead, they allowed 3 straight to give up said lead, and a pair of ENG, as well.)

At this point, I'm in favor of putting Jim Fox and Daryl Evans on the ice and moving some of our "stars" (Moore, Byfield) to the broadcast team. Sure, Foxy and Daryl are each 64 years old, but they can still probably improve our "offense"…
