For absolutely no reason, let's start talking about who the Kings should target. *Should Blake not panic and trade the first in the off-season*
I think the name Iginla should make a dramatic return on the LA Kings. Ty Iginla. He's currently moving up on the rankings, but he could be there, wherever the Kongs pick.

We can dream, can't we?I’m banking on Blake not even being there at all. Luc either, for that matter.
- The Los Angeles Kings lack a left wing among their top prospects. They could address that need by selecting Igor Chernyshov of MHK Moscow Dynamo in Russia's MHL junior league.
He tallied 13 goals and 28 points in 22 games this season, finishing sixth among Dynamo scorers. The 18-year-old also saw limited minutes with their KHL parent club, netting four points in 34 games.
NHL Central Scouting has Chernyshov ranked ninth among this season's international skaters. The 6'2", 192-pounder is under contract with Dynamo through next season.
Pronman had Chernyshov 14th on his list of top prospects, calling him a big, powerful winger who skates well and possesses plenty of offensive creativity. Ellis noted his improvement without the puck, while Bukala cited his potential offensive upside.
21. Los Angeles Kings: Sacha Boisvert, C, Muskegon (USHL)
Sacha Boisvert may be more of a project, but the tools are there with the Muskegon center. His shot stands out above all of his other skills, but he also has a strong touch with the puck and can get creative when needed. At 6-2, he has the height NHL teams are looking for, but he needs to fill out a bit more if he's going to find success in the pros. The Kings may shy away from a raw talent like Boisvert, but he would be a good get for their future.
Yup and they got 2 first round picks as does the HawksSan Jose won the Lottery. Oh...yay.
