Kings Trim HC Search to Woodcroft, Laviolette

The Kings’ coaching hunt is getting down to the wire, and the names left standing tell you this search has turned serious. Jay Woodcroft brings a different kind of track record than Peter Laviolette, which is exactly why front offices love to keep these decisions hanging until the last possible second. Los Angeles does not appear interested in a splashy mystery hire, and the next move will say plenty about what kind of room they think they have.
