Wondering if (or when) the time comes and another team hires Hextall as GM, if the Kings would receive a compensatory draft pick. If some of you may recall, the Kings gave up a 2nd round pick to the Flyers when they hired Dean Lombardi. Here's an article from Pierre LeBrun discussing the topic of compensatory picks for teams hiring staff from other clubs.

The Flyers received LA's 2nd pick (42nd overall, used to select Michael Ratchuk) in 2006 for hiring Lombardi.
