From NCAA to the Los Angeles Kings

From NCAA to the Los Angeles Kings

October 4th, 2018 More than 300 former collegiate hockey players played in an NHL regular-season game this past season. Former NCAA student-athletes now account for more than 30 percent of players on NHL rosters. The Kings have been active through the years signing college free agents and drafting college hockey alumni. This past March in particular,...

10 Greatest LA Kings of All Time

July 7th, 2018   If you are explaining, you are losing— J.C. Watts If true, the L.A. Kings have done one hell of a lot of 'splainin' over their 45-year history. However, thanks to the heroics of Jonathan Quick, Anze Kopitar, Dustin Brown and company, they now finally have a Cup. Therefore, the correct and proper rejoinder when...
Los Angeles Kings 2018 Draft Preview

Los Angeles Kings 2018 Draft Preview

June 21st, 2018 With the 2018 NHL Draft taking place in Dallas this weekend, it's time to get primed for what the draft could hold in store for the Los Angeles Kings. A year ago, Rob Blake was approaching his first draft after being hired to replace Dean Lombardi as general manager of the Kings. When he selected Gabriel Vilardi with the 11th...
Are the Kings Done Dealing?

Are the Kings Done Dealing?

February 24th, 2018 The Los Angeles Kings have, for the most part, had a steady yet unspectacular season to date. The team's baseline throughout the majority of its 2017-18 campaign is being on the precipice of leapfrogging the likes of the St. Louis Blues, Minnesota Wild, Anaheim Ducks and San Jose Sharks for a highly sought-after playoff spot. Knowing...

Kings in Check: Need Bold Moves to Stay Alive

May 8th, 2017 A lot has already been said about the aging, underperforming Los Angeles Kings roster, and the path to playoff contention is only going to increase in difficulty for front office newcomers Luc Robitaille and Rob Blake, a first-time NHL team president and first time general manager, respectively. Now that the Kings have overhauled their...
Tape2Tape: McDonald, Blake Notable Omissions in NHL 100

Tape2Tape: McDonald, Blake Notable Omissions in NHL 100

January 28th, 2017 By now, you’ve likely read two or three - maybe even four - lists of players who were deemed as notable omissions on the NHL’s list of top 100 players of all time. Most of those lists likely include current players like Joe Thornton, Evgeni Malkin and Jarome Iginla. I’ve also read lists that include Dale Hawerchuk, Michel Goulet...
Michael Mersch Working His Way into the Kings' Plans

Michael Mersch Working His Way into the Kings' Plans

July 31st, 2016 It's a good thing that after two championships and five playoff appearances in his first eight seasons as general manager of the Los Angeles Kings, Dean Lombardi amassed a huge amount of equity. Over the past two, he's spent a fair amount of it. The 2014-15 campaign saw his team miss the playoffs for the first time since 2008-09. To...
Brown and Kopitar Reach New Milestones with Kings

Brown and Kopitar Reach New Milestones with Kings

November 10th, 2015 Both Dustin Brown and Anze Kopitar reached milestones early this season with the Kings organization, as Brown has now played 816 games in his NHL career, moving him up on the list for most games played by a Kings player, and Kopitar moved up on the list of most goals scored by a Kings’ player with 223 goals. Brown Surpasses Rob Blake...
