Murry does shift his players around a lot, but so do all NHL coaches. They have a much deeper bench this year, with additions like Shcnieder, Visnovsky, Belanger and Buchberger. Last year, both Buchberger and Emerson didn't really gel with the team as they are this year. Smolinski is hot and Palffy is, as usual, very affective since returning. He did the right thing by getting rid of 'mini me' Blake and now needs to shuffle off Johnson and Modry. This team is going to the playoffs and has the bench, maybe not goaltending, to make it to the second round. LIGHT 'EM UP LA KINGS. And another thing, just pay Blake, the guy is worth $9 million and a luxury box.
