Kings' struggles make Marco Sturm's introduction to coaching in the NHL that much more of a challenge

During his playing days, Marco Sturm didn’t have much responsibility immediately after a game. It was mostly a time to recuperate his body and maybe enjoy some camaraderie after a win.

“You have a beer and you have a good sleep and you wake up the next day,” Sturm said. “As a coach, you kind of have to start after the game and work through the night and get back at it the next day. It’s a huge difference.”

Wins and sleep have been difficult to come by as Sturm gets a crash course with the Kings.
