I have heard that Petrie is interested in Darko, but not sure under what terms. When asked, all Geoff says is that he has "all summer" to work things out with the Kings, and the indication is that he plans to use that time to revamp the squad big time. But with the pieces he has to play with, that should prove to be a challenge.
And any reference to Pauly Shore surely is mega-stretch. The only thing close to a spontaneous laugh I have ever gotten from this guy is the "gag" reflex.
