The magnificent Kings goalie was a third-rounder in his draft year. How the heck did that happen?
We have a banner crop of questions in this week’s mailbag, so let’s get right to them. Thanks to all who submitted inquiries, regardless of whether they made the cut.

Why the Avs' investment wasn't so bad after all, who will the Oilers draft?; and more.
It’s the Easter long weekend, but the THN.com mailbag doesn’t take holidays. And why should it, especially at this time of year? Playoffs are right around the bend, non-playoff teams have important decisions to make and the NHL draft talk is just heating up.

The NHL coach of the year race is a tight one; reward teams for drafting well?; and more.
