The LA Kings could have a difficult task matching up with their opponents in the NHL’s proposed division re-alignment.
Inching ever closer to hockey returning for the 2021 season, the LA Kings and the rest of the league are likely headed toward a 56-game schedule. The NHL and NHLPA reportedly agreed on the financials earlier this week but still had to sort out a few logistics.
It’s long been rumored that the league would temporarily re-align the divisions in an effort to accommodate less travel for teams while also keeping all seven Canadian teams north of the border.
