OPINION: Doughty and Kings Likely Heading Toward Two-Year Contract Extension
Drew Doughty wanted to be the next LA Kings captain. In fact, he might have wanted it more than any other player on the roster. Although that wasn’t reason enough to appoint him the 15th captain in franchise history, be very clear about one thing — it means the world to him. And that carries […]
