FINAL – Kings 1, Sabres 4 – Kempe, Ceci, Hiller


The LA Kings saw their three-game winning streak come to an end after tonight’s 4-1 defeat against the Buffalo Sabres. Buffalo opened the scoring on the game’s first power play, with forward Alex Tuch getting the hosts on the board. Working off the right-hand wall, Tuch spun and fired a pass towards the slot, which […]

Nice to see the Kings grab that win in Detroit. Three straight before the Buffalo game was a solid stretch. Helenius getting on the scoresheet again is encouraging - seems like he's finding his groove.

The Cihar article caught my eye too. That semifinal play against Canada sounds like it was something special. Always good to see prospects performing well on the international stage, especially in high-pressure tournament situations like the World Juniors. If he was in the MVP conversation, that bodes well for his development.

Ontario's been rolling too - six straight at home and 10-2 in January is pretty impressive. The pipeline seems healthy right now.

Tough loss to Buffalo though. Losing to a team that's been struggling this season stings a bit, but those back-to-back road games can be tricky. Can't win them all. Hopefully they bounce back in the next one.
 
Catching up with Taylor Ward after signing a two-year contract extension with the Kings


It’s always nice to see a guy who has earned everything he’s gotten get rewarded for it. Sometimes it takes a player years of proving himself to earn that reward. Sometimes it comes instantly. For Kings forward Taylor Ward, it’s kind of been both. Ward played three full seasons with the AHL’s Ontario Reign before […]
