Bernie Nicholls took some time to chat after practice and said he didn’t know how long he would be around the Kings, but sounded willing to stay as long as he was wanted/needed. Darryl Sutter said he wanted Nicholls to “watch a couple games,” but Nicholls didn’t know exactly where he would be watching from (bench, press box, etc.) Nicholls indicated, in general, that a consultant-type role would interest him more than a full-time coaching role.
As for on-ice stuff, Slava Voynov came out at the end of practice and skated, but Sutter indicated Voynov was unlikely to play without a full-team practice. More notes and quotes to come…
