Prospect to join Kings?

TSN’s Bob McKenzie, a man legitimately in the know, is reporting that free-agent junior prospect Jacob Muzzin will sign an entry-level contract with the Kings after Jan. 1. It’s all unofficial because, according to McKenzie, Muzzin wants to wait until after the new year (for contractual purposes) but other teams have apparently been told that Muzzin will sign with the Kings. I haven’t yet received any word from anyone with the Kings about this, but I’m trying and I’ll stay on it.

Muzzin’s story is an interesting one. He has come back from back problems and is currently the OHL’s top-scoring defenseman. Read more about it in McKenzie’s story:
