Kings’ Fans Just About Ready to Crown Blake
- Share via
Kudos to King management for playing hardball with Jozef Stumpel: He is injury-prone. With respect to the salary demands of Rob Blake: You signed a contract, Rob! What’s the matter with signing a new contract for three more years at approximately $7 million a year and honoring the last year of your present contract, paying you about $5 million?

Blakie, get off the Alexei Yashin highway. You signed the contract. Honor the final year of it, sans complaint, and work a deal worthy of your stature as one of the top NHL defensemen.
I guess you were right to remove yourself as captain. A true captain honors his word, doesn’t whine and leads by example.
