Going into the holiday break earlier this past week, the LA Kings were still in a playoff position in the standings in the West.
The Los Angeles Kings concluded December with a three-game homestand, including back-to-back home games before the NHL’s holiday break. On Dec. 22, they faced the Columbus Blue Jackets for the first time this season and then played the next night on Dec. 23 against the Seattle Kraken (for the second time this season).
