With the NHL implementing a 4-6 player taxi squad, these five players could potentially make the LA Kings Opening Night roster.
We knew when the NHL and NHLPA agreed on terms for a season, expanded rosters would have to be in play. Similar to the MLB negotiations, team rosters were expanded from 25 in 2019 to 30 in the shortened 60-game slate. As part of the NHL’s 56-game schedule, teams are permitted to carry a 4-6 player “taxi squad.”
One of the more intriguing storylines to keep tabs on leading up to training camp will be who the LA Kings bring along as part of expanded rosters.
