Big nights for prospects Schenn, Toffoli

It seems as though yesterday was a much better day for the Kings’ prospects than for the Kings themselves. Brayden Schenn (pictured, right) totaled four goals and one assist for Canada as it earned a 10-1 pool-play victory over Norway in a pool-play game in the World Junior Championships. Schenn now has six goals and six assists in three pool-play games. Then, in Ottawa, Tyler Toffoli — the Kings’ second-round draft pick this year — scored five goals in just more than two periods of action as his Ottawa 67s beat the Kingston Frontenacs 9-0 in an Ontario Hockey League junior game. Toffoli now has an OHL-high 34 goals in 36 games this season. To read more about Schenn and Toffoli, check out these stories
