The LA Kings announced today that they will be breaking ground on a brand new olympic diving facility.
When asked why the Kings, an underperforming team so far this season, would construct a pool GM Savill commented: "We are shifting our focus from the Stanley Cup to Olympic gold. We now have three of the top divers in the entire NHL and it only seems natural to play to our team's strengths."
The multi-million dollar facility will include the main pool and diving area, training facilities (including a speed bag for Daniel Sedin), a trophy case (currently empty) and riot space for 40,000 fans.
The facility will be named "Three Stooges Pool"
The move comes as a result of a trade between SJ and LA:
To LA
D. Sedin
2013 3rd (DET)
To SJ
Carter
Top 25 2013 1st
Matt Calvert (AHL)
As much as I dislike the Sedins in real hockey (why are they so good?) they seem to be pretty rad in the Sim. So I figured I'd give them a shot together.
Worst case, I should be able to flip one or both of them at a later date and get similar return. Everyone seems to love them when it comes to the Sim!
