Canadiens D Emelin out for season with knee injury
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Alexei Emelin will miss the rest of the season because of a torn knee ligament.
The 26-year-old Russian was hurt as he tried to check Milan Lucic of the Boston Bruins on Saturday.
He has three goals and nine assists in 38 games in his second NHL season. Last season, he had three goals and four assists in 67 games.
The Canadiens also announced the...
Perfect in the Regehr Era by Jack Weber
Wearing Davis Drewiske’s old #44 and playing on Drewiske’s old spot with Keaton Ellerby on the third defense pairing, playing on his left, Robyn Regehr began his tenure with the Kings, setting out on his quest to not only prove he’s better than Drewiske (and Alec Martinez), but that he’s better enough to warrant giving [...]
TRH RECAP 36: COYOTE UGLY
LA KINGS 1, PHOENIX COYOTES 3
Well as the 3 of you that read The Royal Half on a regular basis might have noticed... we've had a little less content around here this season. With myself doing the GAMEDAY PREVIEWS for LAKings.com, I haven't had as much free time to do unfunny and boring recaps of the Los Angeles Kings games. So to fix that, we are trying something new...
Drewiske Leaves, Kings Lose by Jack Weber
The Kings made some news before tonight’s game, as they announced they had traded Davis Drewiske to the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for Montreal’s fifth-round pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft. Drewiske, a 28-year-old left-handed shooting defenseman from Hudson, Wisconsin, signed with the Kings as an undrafted free agent from the University of Wisconsin [...]
Canadiens get defenseman Drewiske from LA
The Montreal Canadiens obtained defenseman Davis Drewiske from the Los Angeles Kings for a fifth-round draft pick Tuesday.
The Canadiens were seeking a veteran to play on their third defense pair.
Drewiske had one goal and three assists in 20 games and was plus-3 for Los Angeles, but had been a healthy scratch of late. He averaged 14:27 of ice time per game.
He was signed as a...
Canadiens Acquire Davis Drewiske From Kings by Steven Ellis
The Montreal Canadiens announced today that they had acquired defenseman Davis Drewiske from the Los Angeles Kings in return for a fifth round draft pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft. Undrafted, Drewiske started his junior career with Des Moines Buccaneers of the USHL before joining the University of Wisconsin in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. Drewiske captained...
Bergevin gets busy
So if the top three teams in the East this year are Boston, Pittsburgh and Montreal, they have thus far acquired Jagr, Morrow, Iginla - and Drewiske.
Who is Davis Drewiske? He's a competent depth defenceman who came out of the University of Wisconsin, and provides the Canadiens with insurance on the back end going into the playoffs. Sure, it's not a sexy move, but it'...
Matthew Barry: Drewiske Traded to Habs - Who's Next?
Alec Martinez just breathed a sign of relief.
Davis Drewiske brings his Stanley Cup ring to a team that hasn't won a Stanley Cup since... they beat the Kings. Maybe he'll be THEIR good luck charm.
Solid #6 - nothing fancy - will get his 11-12 minutes.
Does this signal another deal for the Kings?
Pominville? Stafford?
I'm sure Lombardi doesn't want to...
Kings Trade Drewske To Montreal
LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Kings have acquired a fifth-round selection in the 2013 NHL Draft from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for defenseman Davis Drewiske, Kings President/General Manager Dean Lombardi announced today.
Drewiske, 28, has played in 20 games with the Kings this season, recording four points (1-3=4), 14 penalty minutes and a plus-3 rating. The 6-2, 220...
Kings Have Some Signings To Do
from Jon Rosen of LAKingsInsider,
As it stands now – and a primary assist to CapGeek on this – the Kings have 49.26 million dollars allotted towards 13 players for the 2013-14 season. Because the salary cap drops to 64.3 million dollars next season – and there’s certainly a chance that will happen – unless players currently under contract for next season are traded...
Davis Drewiske blocks Bobby Ryan pass with his face (Video)
LA Kings defenseman Davis Drewiske was hit square in the face by the puck from point blank range on a pass from Anaheim Ducks winger Bobby Ryan behind the net during the third period of Saturday night's NHL game at the Honda Center.
Drewiske, who does not wear a visor, left the ice with blood on his face, but only missed three minutes of game time before returning to the ice...

TRH RECAP 2: High and Not So Mighty
KINGS 1, AVALANCHE 3
Hey, Fox Sports West... is there anyway you can tell me which LA Kings player was injured
and what the injury was and when the surgery will be?
I can't quite see it.
If things don't work out for Davis Drewiske as a fill-in NHL Defenseman...
...he can always be a regular cast member on Mad Men.
The best part of finally...
Matthew Barry: Mitchell Out "A While" - Lombardi To Seek Veteran Help
Tonight was meet the players party - they all had smiles from ear to ear.
Willie Mitchell, whose veteran presence was KEY to the Kings Stanley Cup winning run last season is out for "a while" with a bad knee according to several who spoke with Lombardi.
Davis Drewiske is a solid 7th man, not a replacement for Mitchell, and Lombardi doesn't want to throw Thomas...
Matthew Barry: Drewiske 9 Games = Name on Cup / Loktionov 41 Games = Not on Cup!
Many are saying "this is an outrage!" and they would be right.
Others are simply praying this was a misprint on the Kings part, since only 52 names are allowed on the cup and 25 games played enforcer Kevin Westgarth is also included.
One could certainly argue that Davis Drewiske was a healthy scratch for 72 games and was on the roster the entire season as was Kevin...
Matthew Barry: Where the Domino's Fall... Start With Niittymaki?
DOMINO #1
Kings claim Niittymaki and actually get him. Hopefully speak to agent about extension before claim.
DOMINO #2
They'll likely waive Trent Hunter or more likely Davis Drewiske in order to fit him under the cap.
DOMINO #3
Kings can finally dangle Bernier without having to worry if Quick doesn't sign extension July 1st. Yes, Niittymaki is a UFA July 1st, but...
TRH Recap 32: Eight is Enough
Someone at the Fox Sports West HD Production Team has a pretty sick sense of humor... because after reports swirled all day long that Darryl Sutter has been hired as the 23rd coach of the Los Angeles Kings... the director felt the need to cut to Interim Coach John Stevens after every single goal the Detroit Red Wings scored Saturday night. And boy... his camera switching finger must...

TRH Recap 30: Blue Christmas
I wish there was someway to visually represent what it feels like to be an 8-year-old female fan of the Los Angeles Kings right now.
