Jewels from the Crown: for Los Angeles Kings fans

With the Pacific division preview series now over but still several weeks of offseason left to cover, the Jewelcast will now turn our attention to the other division in the Western Conference. We'll cover the Central in two parts, with this week's episode covering the four teams who finished in the bottom of the division: the Winnipeg Jets, Nashville Predators, Dallas Stars, and Minnesota Wild. We'll also be joined by two guests: to discuss the Stars, Toni McIntyre of the Hockey Writers (@ToniMacAttack on Twitter) and to discuss the Wild, Nate Wells of SBN College Hockey (@gopherstate). In addition, we'll ask Nate to provide his college hockey expertise on some of the Kings' college prospects. Will the Jets and Preds get back into the playoffs this season? Can the Stars or Wild move further up the standings? Let's find out!
