A front page for Greg!

One of my favorite Kings minor league players - Greg Hogeboom - is getting some well-deserved publicity over at NHL.com.

Join me in keeping our collective fingers crossed for his ECHL ASG start and perhaps another call-up to the Manchester Monarchs. It seems like he has little more to prove at the ECHL level with 38 points [14+24] in 27 games for the Reading Royals.

"Greg's a very offensive player at this level," said [his head coach] Karl Taylor, one of many young, bright and articulate coaches in the ECHL. "The great thing about Greg is he's actually a two-way player. He gets a lot of credit for his offensive play, and obviously he's a thrilling player to watch. But when he went back to Manchester, he had to learn defense. He's become a very complete player."
