KINGS RULE!

About Me


The Los Angeles Kings have always been one of the most curious organizations in all of sports. "The fastest game on ice" based in the sunshine of Southern California, the idea seems too far-fetched to ever succeed. And yet, 38-years after the Kings inaugural season, the team with the seemingly oxymoronic existence has not only survived but has become one of the cornerstone franchises of the National Hockey League.

The Kings were the birth child of Canadian-born entrepreneur Jack Kent Cooke. Cooke, who had long dreamed of owning his own hockey team, already possessed the Lakers when began his fight to bring hockey to the City of Angels. Prior to the 1967-68, the NHL expanded from the "Original Six", as the Kings joined the St. Louis Blues, Pittsburgh Penguins, Minnesota North Stars, California Seals and Philadelphia Flyers to form the league's Western Division.
