Audio: Quick hits with Ben Scrivens

Ben Scrivens is an Oiler, and figures to be so for the foreseeable future after signing a two-year, 4.6 million dollar extension earlier this week. The former King is back to wearing the #30 that he wore while he was a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs and has worn in a set of orange and blue pads after beginning his Edmonton career with the same white pads with which he found a good deal of success with in Los Angeles. Always approachable on game days, Scrivens joined LA Kings Insider following the Oilers’ morning skate to discuss the transition back towards living and playing hockey in his hometown, and most importantly, whether the nickname “The Professor” has followed him from Los Angeles.
