Leading up to Thursday’s announcement, the Kings were the hottest team in the league, winning seven in a row and going 8-1-1 in the last 10 games. The Kings already played

When the Los Angeles Kings won their sixth game in a row, it was the Alex Iafallo’s goal that sealed it. The Kings were holding a 2-1 lead over the Colorado Avalanche in the third period. The puck was cleared around the boards to centre ice. Iafallo sprinted down the wing beating the defence, a
The Los Angeles Kings have traded defenseman Alec Martinez to the Vegas Golden Knights for a 2020 and 2021 second-round pick. There is no salary retention. The 32-year old Martinez was drafted 95th overall in the 4th round of the 2007 draft by the Kings. He carries a $4 million salary cap hit through next
The Los Angeles Kings have traded forward Tyler Toffoli to the Vancouver Canucks for Tim Schaller, Tyler Madden, a 2020 2nd round draft pick, and a conditional 2022 4th round pick if Toffoli re-signs with the Canucks. The Kings are not retaining any salary. The 27-year old Toffoli was drafted 47th overall in the 2nd
Tyler Toffoli is worth a king’s ransom, and general manager Rob Blake knows it. There is no doubt the Los Angeles Kings general manager has had a few offers for the soon-to-be unrestricted free agent, but Blake hasn’t pulled the trigger. The delay, for whatever reason, is looking more ingenious every game and is going
Hurricanes looking for someone with term … a few potential options Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic: The Carolina Hurricanes would consider trading one of their two first-round picks (own Toronto’s) but only for a player with term. Matt Dumba has three years left at $6 million and the Minnesota Wild may eye the Hurricanes first,
Cap issues led to a short-term deal for Darnell Nurse Jason (@Account4Hockey): Elliotte Friedman on Sportsnet 960 on Monday said that the Edmonton Oilers and Darnell Nurse had looked at longer-term but couldn’t get the salary cap number to work. The short-term deal gives them time for money to come off the books and then
In today’s NHL rumor rundown, there is news surrounding just how bad Connor McDavid’s potential injury is from Saturday’s game. So too, how are the Oilers negotiations coming along with Darnell Nurse? There is an update on the Los Angeles Kings and the attention two of their players in particular are getting and what’s the
NEWARK, N.J. — Mackenzie Blackwood stopped a penalty shot and made 37 saves in posting his second straight shutout and the New Jersey Devils beat the Los Angeles Kings 3-0 Saturday night.

Top-four defenseman with term still a priority for the Toronto Maple Leafs TSN: The Toronto Maple Leafs have been looking for a defenseman, and Cody Ceci is now hurt (out at least for a month). Is a top-four defenseman with term still a top priority? Darren Dreger said it is, especially with Ceci’s and Morgan
Will Jonathan Quick stay or will he go? Josh Cooper of The Athletic: The numbers improved slightly this season but Jonathan Quick remains trade bait. Will he get traded come the trade deadline? Players like Marc-Andre Fleury posting similar 5-on-5 numbers helps the chances a little. However, does it move the needle enough? Quick competes
The Los Angeles Kings have traded goaltender Jack Campbell and forward Kyle Clifford to the Toronto Maple Leafs for forward Trevor Moore, a 2020 3rd round pick (Columbus’ pick), and a conditional 2021 3rd round pick (could become a 2nd).

Top Priority for the Oilers Ryan Rishaug: Have to believe the top priority for the Edmonton Oilers heading into the trade deadline still has to be a third-line center. Ottawa Senators Jean-Gabriel Pageau would be a great fit for the Oilers but is not sure they’ll want to give up their first-round pick for him.
Honoring a legend is a big task, and doing so in the Staples Center – “the House That Kobe Built” – was especially daunting. After the Los Angeles Lakers – Los Angeles Clippers NBA game was cancelled on Tuesday, the weight of expectation fell onto the Los Angeles Kings. Could they provide the appropriate send-off
Toffoli’s return is key for the Kings Dennis Bernstein: (answering questions) The success of the Los Angeles Kings deadline comes down to what return they get for Tyler Toffoli. Their other pending unrestricted free agents won’t get them a big return – a low round or conditional draft pick. There may be a concern right
Avs rumored need for a defenseman doesn’t make sense unless… AJ Haefele: “All due respect to the reporting work others are doing but it simply makes no sense for the Avs to add a defender at the trade deadline unless it’s a major upgrade. Not sure that guy is available this year on D. Avs
The NHL trade deadline is just over a month away. That means we will soon see a flurry of activity from general managers trying to bolster their clubs in hopes of an extended playoff run. There are already a ton of names regularly popping up in rumors. Today, we’re going to look at three that
