AHL All-Star Game today

There’s another All-Star Game today, as Kings prospects Thomas Hickey and Jeff Zatkoff will participate in the American Hockey League version. The game starts at 4 p.m. Pacific time. For those who have DirecTV, and have the sports package, the game will be shown live on a few of the regional networks (Fox Sports, Comcast) from the Midwest. I’m also told that Time Warner Cable customers from Ventura County to Orange County will be able to watch the game, tape-delayed, at 8 p.m. on Channel 101.

Hickey has two goals, 14 assists and a team-high plus-14 rating (tied for ninth in the AHL) in 47 games. Zatkoff, in 26 games, has a 13-8-1 record, a 2.18 goals-against average and a .932 save percentage.
