From Rich Hammond of the L.A. Daily News:
It’s probably 94 percent certain that the Kings will choose Drew Doughty. Dean
Lombardi has not said so explicitly, nor will he, but I wouldn’t say something
like that if I had serious doubts. I’m leaving a five-percent margin of error,
in case the Kings get overwhelmed by a trade offer tomorrow, and a one-percent
margin of error in case they discover tomorrow that Zach Bogosian can stop pucks with his teeth and score on 80-foot slap shots.

No real surprise here. Doughty has been linked to the Kings for some time now. His selection will give the Kings a young defense core of Jack Johnson, Thomas Hickey and Doughty. That is an impressive group of three.
