Thread: Anyone know the story behind...

Not discounting what Potomski did, but DK was an *******.

I never knew that there was such issues with Khristich (aside from the Potomski incident). For a while during the mid 90's he was one of the better guys on the team.

It's telling that none of the teammates came to the aid of the team's best scorer. I suspect they must have observed or heard what precipitated the incident and felt the beat-down was justified.

That's not saying much...

EXACTLY! I'm just trying to find out what started it.

Thanks Doc, for the link. Still leaves me wondering what started it though.

totally off topic but oh man I forgot about the wild days of these types of deals GM's used to do

Lacroix always told people to wait and see, but he wasn't sitting around waiting for something to happen. Last week, he signed Forsberg to a retroactive three-year deal worth $13.539 million.

Back on topic I had totally forgotten about this episode. Crappy teams always have more than their fare share of this crap at all levels.

Gary Schuchuck could have been one of the better guys on those mid 90's teams.

Laughed my hiney off when I read this story years back. DK had a smugness about him I wanted to beat with Marty McSorleys fist

When injuries depleted the forwards ranks, however, the Kings recalled borderline prospects Nathan LaFayette, Paul DiPietro and Chris Marinucci while leaving Potomski with the Roadrunners.

Man were those some grim times. I think I blocked out so many of those memories, I am only now beginning to heal. hahaha
