Kings game morning hangover recap - Team looks different with Arvidsson in the lineup. - Five goals in the last four for Anze. - Kempe shedding the sniper tag with seven assists in the last four games. - 12-24-22 on fire 🍦 - Tampa will be a good test on Saturday. #GoKingsGo
Everything clicked for the @LAKings as they presented the best version of themselves in a 6-0 rout of @mnwild. If Viktor Arvidsson can stay healthy - and that's been a challenge - maybe he's the add they needed as top teams in the West all bulked up. https://t.co/Z9HL8jDqqZ
