Kings are on the Map

Great idea and tons of elbow grease from Wavesinair. Seriously. Now, Waves, when will you have the prospects done (major junior, ECHL, Europe, NCAA...)??

(Also, I notice you don't have the actual childhood home addresses. You should work on that, too. It would be nice to be able to Google Earth right down to a tour of Drew Doughty's house, pre-school, hospital where he was born, rink where he learned to skate, etc. -- this sentence started out as a joke, but I think it's an excellent hive mind project...)

I just love this so much.

Glad you're enjoying it!

It’s definitely a fun project. I can see fans from each team doing this, then maybe putting them all together on one site… There’s already a “rink” site that lists nhl, ahl, and echl team locations. Good stuff.

A prospect map is, indeed, next. I don’t think I’ll include the likes of Jan Marek though. Just the main prospects. If you think of other information I can add as a link for each player, particularly with the Kings map, please send me a note. The hive mind project could be very interesting whereby each Kings player has his own separate map, detailing their every move…kinda Orwellian in a creepy kind of way.

Well that's more a project for the Google GPS tracker...

Wait till this year.

So impressive!

Great job Waves!

and on the 93rd postseason of the National Hockey League, the Slovakian-hockeygod Zeus commanded from high atop Mount Figueroa..."RELEASE THE MEAT TRAIN!" And it was good.
