"It's tough at the start, I think, just kind of finding your way around. I think everything from off the ice is harder than once you get on the ice, but it's nice to get into a game right away."
"The Kings are going to fall in love with the type of player Laughton is. He plays a physical style of hockey while having the ability to play in any scenario. If he is able to add some scoring touch to his arsenal, he can become a very dangerous player for the remainder of the season."
Scott Laughton made his Los Angeles Kings debut on Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens, one day after being traded from the Toronto Maple Leafs for a conditional third-round pick that becomes a second-rounder if the Kings make the playoffs. Laughton scored his first goal as a King, tying the game at 2 in the second period. He played over 15 minutes, exceeding his season average with Toronto. The Kings view Laughton as a physical, versatile player capable of playing in any situation, particularly on the penalty kill and in the bottom six. The Kings remain three points outside the playoff picture following their loss to Montreal.
