Bryce Clark+FollowDoughty’s Comeback: Can the Kings’ Anchor Rebound?Fellow Kings fans, what do you think about Drew Doughty’s bounce-back chances this season? Last year, the Iron Man of our blue line was clearly not himself after that brutal ankle injury, and the C- grade from Rink Royalty says it all. With a full offseason to heal, can Doughty return to his Norris-caliber form and lead the Kings’ D-corps again? Or will Gavrikov and Anderson keep carrying the load? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo10Share
Sherri West+FollowLA Kings hold strong in new NHL rankingsDespite a quiet offseason without any blockbuster signings, the LA Kings are still holding their ground among the NHL’s top teams—landing at 11th in ESPN’s latest power rankings. That’s just a slight dip from last year, even as the Pacific Division gets more competitive with teams like the Oilers and Golden Knights making big moves. It’s clear ESPN sees real potential in the Kings’ core group—think Kempe, Byfield, Doughty, Kopitar, and Kuemper—even if fans were hoping for a splashier summer. Do you think this steady approach is enough to finally push the Kings past the first round? #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo10Share
Christopher Li+FollowKovalchuk’s LA Kings Stint: What Went Wrong?Remember when the Kings brought in Kovy to spark the offense after another early playoff exit? The hype was real—he was a former 40-goal machine! But after that three-year, $18.75M deal, Kovalchuk never found his groove in LA. He tallied just 19 goals in 81 games and was waived halfway through his second season. Considering his cap hit and the lack of production, was this the biggest free agent flop in Kings history? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
Bryce Clark+FollowCan the Kings Finally Topple the Oilers?After tying their franchise points record last season, the LA Kings looked poised for a deep run—until McDavid and the Oilers crashed the party again. With the Pacific Division reloading (hello, Marner to Vegas!), the big question is: did the Kings do enough to stay in the top three, or will losing Gavrikov and Spence haunt them? The Oilers-Kings rivalry is heating up, but are the Kings closing the gap or falling behind? #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
William Morrow+FollowCould Bryan Rust Be LA’s Missing Piece?Insiders are buzzing about the Kings possibly making a move for Penguins champ Bryan Rust. After another early playoff exit, LA’s front office seems ready to shake things up. Rust, a proven two-way force with two Cups under his belt, would’ve ranked third in goals and points for the Kings last season. With Pittsburgh in rebuild mode, could Rust’s championship pedigree finally help LA’s core get over the hump? Let’s hear your takes, Kings fans! #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
Sherri West+FollowShould the Kings Go All-In on McTavish?Rumors are heating up about the LA Kings possibly dropping a big offer sheet on Ducks’ young gun Mason McTavish. With the relationship between McTavish and Anaheim on the rocks, could the Kings swoop in and shake up the Pacific? If LA goes for it, they’d have to pony up some serious picks, but adding a gritty scorer like McTavish to a line with Kopi and Kempe could be a game-changer. Would you risk the draft capital for a shot at this rivalry-defining move? #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
William Morrow+FollowWho Claims the Kings’ Final Roster Spots?With the LA Kings’ top lines mostly locked in, the real battle is heating up for those last three roster spots. Will Helenius’ grit fill the Jeannot void, or can Akil Thomas finally break through? Fans are buzzing about rookie Liam Greentree—could he force his way onto the roster and make history? Training camp is shaping up to be a showdown for the ages. Who do you think deserves a spot in the Kingdom? #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
david52+FollowDid the Kings Go Too Old This Offseason?Fellow Kings fans, are we leaning too hard on veteran experience? The front office loaded up with playoff-tested guys like Corey Perry and Brian Dumoulin, but at what cost? We lost some promising young legs and now have the NHL’s third oldest roster. History says Cup winners rarely average over 30. With Kopi and Doughty already aging, did we just make our path to the Cup even tougher? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo10Share
Christopher Li+FollowKings’ Offseason: Smart Moves or Missed Chances?So ESPN just handed the LA Kings a B- for their offseason, and honestly, I’m surprised! With Ken Holland taking the reins, we lost Gavrikov to the Rangers and loaded up on depth guys like Perry and Dumoulin. The big debate: did Holland play it safe with quantity over quality, or did he miss a shot at a real upgrade? After four straight first-round exits, is this the year the Kings finally break through, or will history repeat? #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
Martha Garza+FollowDid the Kings Panic After Losing Gavrikov?Interesting offseason moves from the Kings and Leafs! While Toronto fans saw the Marner saga end with a smart sign-and-trade, LA let Gavrikov walk for nothing and then handed out big contracts to Ceci and Dumoulin. Feels like the Leafs played it cool, keeping cap flexibility and getting Roy back, while the Kings might've overreacted. Should LA have trusted a guy like Moverare instead of splashing on Ceci? Curious to hear what everyone thinks about these contrasting approaches! #Sports #IceHockey #GoKingsGo00Share
