A week has passed, and it’s time for another LA Kings prospect update. Goaltender Hampton Slukynsky highlighted this week’s update. Slukynsky made one start for Western Michigan University (WMU) and posted his first NCAA shutout, stopping all 14 shots in the Broncos’ 2-0 win over Miami University (Ohio). He earned the game’s first star with his shutout as well.
