EL SEGUNDO, CA — Prior to the start of tonight’s game against the Calgary Flames at Staples Center, the Los Angeles Kings will honor forward Dustin Brown, who played in his 1,112th regular season National Hockey League game, all with the Kings, on March 30, a 3-2 overtime win over the Chicago Blackhawks, breaking former Kings right wing Dave Taylor’s all-time franchise record of 1,111 games.
Honoring Brown will place a bit of a damper on the fact that barring unforeseen circumstances, center Anze Kopitar will play in his 1,000th regular season NHL game tonight, as well.
