The Los Angeles Kings started the 2023-24 season as one of the best teams in the NHL, with a 16-4-3 record by Dec. 8. Since then, they are 8-12-7, falling from first in the division to a wild-card spot and firing head coach Todd McLellan. Despite their struggles, the Kings are well-positioned to make a deep playoff run if they can right the ship by making three key moves.
Seeing an average of almost 33 shots per game in the last six contests, goaltenders David Riitich and Cam Talbot have not had much support. While the analytics on the three defensive pairings are above average, there is a sense of complacency within the group.
