"The five-foot-11, 190-pound centre was Windsor's top choice in the Canadian Hockey League import draft and from the moment he arrived in town, amazing has proven an apt descriptive to apply to Loktionov.
In 17 games, he's registered six goals and 12 assists, tied for third among Ontario Hockey League rookies, and shows a plus-four rating.
"He has natural offensive ability," Boughner said. "He can go through traffic at high speed with the puck. He sort of slows the game down to his pace.
"He's a point a game guy right now and I think it's only going to get better. We've got a 65 to possibly 80-point guy in his first year in the OHL. He's a heck of a player."
The Kings signed Loktionov to a three-year contract in August and Emerson saw similar traits from the moment the kid arrived in Hollywood.
"He came to L.A. early in August and just practised with the pros," Emerson said. "His ability and his skill set are at such a high end, he fit right in. "
