Will the Kings Buy Out Pierre-Luc Dubois? Rick Bowness Retires and Round Two Begins!

On today's episode of Locked on NHL, Seth Toupal and Nick Morgan discuss the retirement of Rick Bowness. We look at his long tenure as a coach in various spots, including finishing his career turning around the Winnipeg Jets. We discuss the possibility that the Los Angeles Kings buy out Pierre-Luc Dubois after an extremely frustrating first season with LA. Seth and Nick look at how long Dubois would be on the books if he was bought out (through 2038!) and why they either need to buy him out now or hope he rebounds. Seth and Nick finish by previewing both Stars-Avalanche and Canucks-Oilers before a goodbye to finish things off.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO! - Get in the game and join your friends.
