Cloutier = AHL

Well, Cloutier is officially a minor leaguer.  The Kings waived him, and no surprise that there were no takers.  So, he's off to Manchester. Maybe he can outplay Brust or Fukufuji for the starting role.  Kings seem high on Bernier and he has played well.  But that makes 3 goalies: Labarbera, Aubin and Bernier (if you count Aubin as a goalie).  I am hoping that the Kings don't rush Bernier, out of desperation. They did that last year, and it was embarrasing and scary.  LA showed that none of their prospect goalies were ready for the NHL.  I think Labarbera deserves a full year to prove himself.
