The LA Kings played a complete 60 minutes on Tuesday, defeating the Minnesota Wild 4-0 while receiving enormous contributions from several players.
The LA Kings had four days off between games, which was nothing compared to their opponents in the Minnesota Wild, who hadn’t played a game since February 2 due to a COVID outbreak. Last Thursday, the Kings got off to a fast start against the Sharks, and head coach Todd McLellan iterated over the weekend how important it was for the team not to use being “rusty” as an excuse.
