2006–07 Los Angeles Kings season
Encyclopedia
The 2006–07 Los Angeles Kings
season
was the 40th
season for the National Hockey League
franchise that was established on June 5, 1967. This season marked the beginning of a rebuilding phase, as the team hired Marc Crawford
as their new head coach, former San Jose Sharks
General Manager
Dean Lombardi
as their new General Manager, former NHL
goaltender
s Ron Hextall
as Assistant General Manager (and General Manager of their AHL
affiliate Manchester Monarchs
), and Bill Ranford
as goaltending coach. Their first big move came when they acquired rookie prospect Patrick O'Sullivan, along with a 2006
first round draft pick (Trevor Lewis
) from the Minnesota Wild
for forward Pavol Demitra
on June 24, 2006.
But the biggest move of the offseason for the Kings was acquiring goaltender Dan Cloutier
from the Vancouver Canucks
in exchange for a 2007 second round draft pick and a 2009 conditional draft pick on July 5, 2006. He was then named the team's starting goaltender ahead of Mathieu Garon
, whom many fans expected to be their number-one goaltender. Before the season got underway, he was signed to a 2—year contract, expecting a great performance from the former Canuck. However, at the end of December, Dan Cloutier was last in save percentage
and GAA
amongst NHL goaltenders who have played at least 12 games.
Injuries to both Garon and Cloutier in January prompted the Kings to recall Yutaka Fukufuji
as an emergency goaltender, who made his NHL debut on January 13 against the St. Louis Blues, becoming the first Japanese-born player in NHL history. On January 18, prior to a home game against St. Louis, the Kings claimed goaltender Sean Burke
off of waivers from the Tampa Bay Lightning
. Burke would be the fifth goaltender to play for the Kings during the season (after Cloutier, Garon, Barry Brust
and Fukufuji). This marked the first time the Kings have had at least five goaltenders appear during one season since the 2000–01 season (Jamie Storr
, Felix Potvin
, Steve Passmore
, Stephane Fiset
and Travis Scott
).
On January 20, 2007, prior to a night-game against the Phoenix Coyotes
, the Los Angeles Kings officially retired Luc Robitaille's
#20 sweater. This makes him the fifth player to have his number retired by the Los Angeles Kings, along with Rogie Vachon, Marcel Dionne
, Dave Taylor and Wayne Gretzky
.
in Vancouver
, British Columbia
. The Kings had the 11th overall draft pick by lottery for the third consecutive year.
