He'll be the main man defensively.I expect plenty of high scoring games with the Penguins this year.Agreed. I've had the privledge of watching Jason King play first hand over the last couple of years.  He's a very talented kid, with good hands and wheels.  The thing that may well keep him from the Cunucks is his size.  Not a real big guy.  I wouldn't be surprised to see Ryan Kesler make the team though.  That guy has everything a pro needs.</blockquote>
