In the future, I'd like to see the Kings pair up their top two dmen, Johnson and Doughty together, let 'em log close to 30 mins, they're capable of it. This would permit Voynov to slide into top 4 minutes, pair him up with Mitchell. Then have a very solid fort as your third defense pairing with Greene and Scuderi. It would be similar to the pairing the Kings had in the past with Norstrom and Miller.

Johnson-Doughty
Mitchell-Voynov
Scuderi-Greene

That is a defensive unit that could do it all offensively and defensively. I'd move Martinez and a bottom six forward to acquire Patrick Kaleta from the Sabres. He'd be the perfect addition to the 3rd line RW.
