On Sept. 29, the Philadelphia Flyers got their first win of the preseason against the Boston Bruins in the shootout, 4-3. Even though the Flyers rested key players such as Travis Konecny, Cam Atkinson, and Sean Couturier, they got the win in a hard-fought match. Both teams played phenomenally, and it was an early treat

Goaltender Carter Hart is set to endure the growing pains of the Philadelphia Flyers’ rebuild, but trading him to a contender could make sense for both the player and the team. (Please note that this piece will not focus on the ongoing 2018 Canadian World Juniors investigation, as no information is known at this time.)
The Stanley Cup Final may still be ongoing, but we have our first big offseason trade. Earlier this afternoon, the Philadelphia Flyers, Columbus Blue Jackets and Los Angeles Kings joined up for a three-team deal that sent Ivan Provorov to the Blue Jackets, with Sean Walker and Cal Petersen going to the Flyers. Here are the
The Los Angeles Kings are coming off a season that showed a lot of promise. At points, they looked like they were ready to compete as one of the best teams in the Western Conference. The elephant in the room all season was the goaltending. They were able to patch things together to still be
The 2023 NHL Trade Deadline is one month away, and the rumor mill is starting to heat up immensely because of it. One goaltender who is starting to garner a lot of buzz is Anaheim Ducks star, John Gibson. The 29-year-old has struggled these last few seasons, and this trend has, unfortunately, continued in 2022-23.
The Los Angeles Kings have done it all over the past 10 seasons. The team won two Stanley Cups in the early-2010s before going through several mediocre seasons which eventually led to the beginning of the rebuild that pushed LA to the bottom of the league. This season, however, the team made the postseason for
The Los Angeles Kings will soon return to play after a long break in their schedule. They will return to play on Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers, their first game since beating the Detroit Red Wings on Feb. 2nd.

The Los Angeles Kings remain the hottest team in hockey with their 3-2 overtime victory over the Montreal Canadiens. The Kings started the game slowly, looking tired in the second of a back-to-back.

In this edition of Los Angeles Kings News and Rumors, I will be discussing goalie coach Bill Ranford’s and head coach Todd McLellan’s comments about the team’s goaltending situation.

The 2020-21 season will be anything but traditional. The NHL still doesn’t know exactly what the season will look like, so fans should expect the unexpected. Last season, the Los Angeles Kings finished with a record of 29-35-6, totaling 64 points, 28th in the league. The team wasn’t even close to a playoff spot last
The Los Angeles Kings had a miserable 2019-20 season, posting a record of 29-35-6. This left LA in second-to-last place in the Western Conference and 27th in the league. Despite this record, LA had an eight-game winning streak at the end of the season and has a promising future due to their deep prospect pool.
For the 29th place Los Angeles Kings, last season was one to forget. The team lacked scoring and lost an absurd amount of road games. No matter how bad of a season it was, there were a few players that showed signs of hope. These should be the guys to watch in the 2020-21 season,
Hurricanes kicking tires on Ho-Sang, Puljujarvi, and others TSN: Pierre LeBrun said the Carolina Hurricanes are looking for another top-nine forward.

The Jonathan Quick succession plan has been set in motion, with the Los Angeles Kings re-signing 24-year-old third-stringer Cal Petersen to a three-year deal. Petersen vs. Campbell Maybe “third-stringer” isn’t an accurate description of what Petersen means to the Kings, though. Arguably one of the league’s top 10 goalie prospects, Petersen is technically third in
