(Inside the office of Kings GM Dean Lombardi)
Lombardi: Rob, Ryan, I would like to welcome you both to the Los Angeles Kings. We're happy to have you.
Rob Scuderi: I intend to bring the work ethic that brought the Cup to Pittsburgh here to Los Angeles.
Ryan Smyth: I hope my veteran leadership will help to mold and grow the young players on this team.
Lombardi: Rrrrright. Anyways, down in the team room, we've got some of our best and brightest waiting to meet you. I should warn you, they are very young and somewhat immature.
Scuderi: I played with Sidney Crosby! I think I know a thing or two about immature! Ha!
[Silence]
Lombardi: Yeah, so they're waiting for you in the team room.
(In the Team Room)
Scuderi/Smyth: Hi!
Anze Kopitar: Hello. Are you the prisoner transfer from Cell Block 1138?
Scuderi: Beg your pardon?
Dustin Brown: Hi, I'm Dustin Brown. Anze and the rest of us are playin' Star Wars.
Scuderi: Oh....
Brown: So what part of the galaxy are you from?
Scuderi: I won the Stanley Cup last year! With the Pittsburgh Penguins!
Brown: Sweet! We'll let you be Lando!
Scuderi: Great....
Brown: What about you, where are you from?
Smyth: Haha! You guys seem fun! I came from Colorado, but I played with the Islanders before that. Most of my career, though, I was in Edmonton!
Kopitar (sounding frightened): Edmonton? Well, if you are on our side, I guess that means you have to be Anakin.
Smyth: Haha! Great! I love Star Wars! Beam me up, Scuderi!
(Entire Kings roster stares at Smyth)
Smyth: Get it? Like Star Wars!
[silence]
Kopitar: Are you really my father?
