Given Lombardi and Futa's connections to Owen Sound, I have a suspicion there's a bit of an agreement between the two:
LA:
Gets a lot more in depth information about players in the franchise, and at times, maybe even use the import draft to bring Kings picks in (Schumacher, though he was later traded to SSM)
OS:
Gets a random prospect in their organization within the Kings organization, even if it's as a camp invite, so they can develop with an organization with more resources over the summer.
There's absolutely nothing to substantiate this; it's just random speculation on my behalf. I do find it very curious there's always some typer of interaction between the Kings and an Owen Sound player every year, though.
