Sure, it might seem like a bit of a nostalgia move at first glance, but re-acquired Kings defenseman Rob Scuderi is out to show he still can help out on the blue line.
“I've never been a guy that's going to rack up points and make a flashy play,” Scuderi said after Saturday's morning skate, a few hours before the Kings beat Buffalo, 2-0, for their fourth straight victory, led by Tanner Pearson's two goals.
Scuderi earlier had assessed his worth in blunt terms. “I think I'm still a good penalty-killer and can provide good role-player fundamentals at this level,” he said.
