To say that the 2007-08 season was disappointing for the Los Angeles Kings would be somewhat of an understatement – their 71 point total landed them at the bottom of the Western Conference. General Manager Dean Lombardi isn’t taking this lying down. Head coach Marc Crawford was fired and replaced with Terry Murray, who has almost 40 years of experience as a player and a coach. If Murray can get the most out of this talented young roster – including forwards Alexander Frolov, Dustin Brown and Anze Kopitar and goalie Jonathan Bernier – the Kings have a good chance of being real contenders in the 2008-09 season. Get your tickets to the Staples Center and see how it all pans out for the Los Angeles Kings in the 2008-09 season!

The Kings made their first appearance in the Stanley Cup Finals in 1993 with a lineup featuring center Wayne Gretzky, defenseman Paul Coffey, and left wing Luc Robitaille. While playing for Los Angeles in 1994, Gretzky, known as The Great One, became the most prolific scorer in NHL history when he broke the record set by forward Gordie Howe for career goals.
