The Los Angeles Kings and new general manager Ken Holland prioritized adding more proven experience and depth on key lines on the projected roster for the upcoming 2025-26 campaign during this offseason.
Can the Los Angeles Kings make it over the postseason first-round hump in the playoffs in the West in 2026?
Holland and the Kings added experience and depth with proven veteran signings this past free agency cycle, highlighted by adding former Edmonton Oilers and Anaheim Ducks 40-year-old winger Corey Perry. The one-time Stanley Cup Champion and former Hart Trophy winner with the Ducks, Perry, ended up coming over from his time in Edmonton after Holland was hired by the Kings earlier this summer.
