Kings forward Jeff Carter, who ranks among the NHL’s top scorers with 22 goals, and durable defenseman Drew Doughty, a league leader in ice time, will skate on home ice when the NHL stages its All-Star weekend Jan 28-29 at Staples Center. Ducks center Ryan Kesler, who leads the team in scoring, and defenseman Cam Fowler will have a short drive to fulfill their All-Star duties after rosters were announced Tuesday by the NHL.
The four were among the players chosen by the league’s hockey operations staff to participate in the All-Star festivities at Staples Center, which will be capped on Jan.
