NHL Rumors: Kings 'Hoping to Acquire 2 Top-6 Forwards' Through Trade, Free Agency

After missing the playoffs in each of the past three seasons, the Los Angeles Kings are looking to make significant roster changes this offseason.

According to Darren Dreger of TSN, the Kings are looking to add "two top-six forwards" either via trades or free agency.

The Kings currently project to have $18.9 million in cap space to upgrade their roster, per Spotrac.

It's not a surprise that the Kings would be targeting players who can help them score goals. They finished 27th in goals scored in 2020-21, their highest ranking in that category in four seasons.
