It’s true, and coming into the season, it was a knock on LA. And for good reason! Based on average age, The Athletic pegged them as the third-oldest team in the league. The only two teams older are Ottawa and Detroit, who are completely lost at sea. Thirteen players 30 or older have played for the Kings this season. And sure, the four oldest players they’ve used this season (Mike Cammalleri, Marian Gaborik, Jussi Jokinen, and Brooks Laich) have all long since departed, but LA also acquired three other players 32 and older this season, two of them after The Athletic tabulated their rankings.
