Labels:text | screenshot | font | white OCR: Los Angeles Kings KINGS Six times Stanley Cup winner Larry Robinson is hired to coach the Kings, and is a perfect foil for the egos lurking A in the Los Angeles changing rooms. Wayne Gretzky bounces back from an off-year to stage one last major curtain call in the final act of a brilliant career. Rich Tocchet males a full recovery from last season, and provides the Kings with some bone crunching body checking and gritty goal scoring. Robinson's presence enlivens defenseman Rob Blake, who casts aside any lingering doubts about his ability, and fulfills the promise and skills he showed a couple years ago, Unfortunately, goaltender Kelly Hrudey is a dud. What can we say? Playoffs? Hardly.
