Jared Woolley's entry-level contract with the LA Kings: Steal or reach? He's a big-bodied defenseman with a decent OHL season under his belt, but is he truly NHL material? Wheeler didn't even rank him in the Kings prospect pool. Is this a smart depth signing or are the Kings hoping for lightning in a bottle? What are your expectations for Woolley's development?
The Kings seem to consistently find defensive gems, but their forward development is often questioned. Is their drafting strategy skewed too heavily towards defense? Does this contract signing signal a potential shift in their developmental focus? Or is it simply a case of taking a chance on a late-round pick? Weigh in with your thoughts.
Woolley's contract is slide-eligible, almost guaranteeing another year in the OHL. Is this the right move for his development? Would he benefit more from a year in the AHL, even in a limited role? What kind of impact can he realistically have on the Kings in the future? Let the debate begin.
