The Los Angeles Kings are eyeing a trade to bolster their chances as they approach the deadline. Historically, the Kings have struggled to find the right piece to complement Anze Kopitar’s line, especially in light of recent slumps and younger players stepping up. The current focus seems to be on acquiring a right-shot forward to strengthen their top six.

Several names have surfaced, including Brock Boeser and Rickard Rakell, but the team may be hesitant to part with key assets. Kings coach Jim Hiller has found success with a new line featuring Kevin Fiala, Quinton Byfield, and Adrian Kempe, suggesting they may not need to make a blockbuster move.
