I understand but not everyone gets to make it with the team they were drafted with.

Some kids will probably play a bigger role this year to fill that void, like kozun and kaunisto. They'll also still have azzy and king. Also, I have a feeling that bud will stay in the kings organization, and if he doesn't make the team out of camp he'll come back to the monarchs and he'll probably be the first to be called up when they need to bring someone up. Buddy gets mad love in manch btw, huge fan base for him here. If that means anything to him.

Huh? I mean they won't play for the Monarchs next year sure, and won't be directly involved in the Kings system, but the Kings didn't lose any of those three...

Moller - rights are still controlled by the Kings and will still be a Kings prospect.
Elkins - the Kings still mainatin his rights for this year and then he becomes a UFA
Holloway - still Kings property as he was tendered a QO and his rights will be retained wherever he plays this year.

Talk about making mountains out of molehills.

Then he should just retire and go pick eggs.

Seriously, DL has proven to be a swift and srewd negotiator. If Holloway doesn't like it he can use what little leverage he has and go to Europe as well.
When he has earned his money he'll get paid it.

Would be nice but the Kings are not known for doing that!
