Can the Los Angeles Kings Overcome Their First-Round Playoff Struggles?
The Los Angeles Kings have struggled in the first round of playoffs. Can they break the curse this season?
The Los Angeles Kings' playoff journey has been marred by a consistent first-round exit. In their past five postseason appearances since winning the Stanley Cup in 2014, they have fallen at this early stage.
In 2016, they lost to the San Jose Sharks in five games despite a promising start. Penalties held them back.
In 2018, the Vegas Golden Knights swept them, with Marc-Andre Fleury's strong goaltending.
In 2022, they came close against the Edmonton Oilers but couldn't seal the deal.
In 2023, the series with Edmonton was intense, but they lost in the end.
In 2024, Edmonton dominated, outscoring the Kings.
Will the Kings finally overcome this hurdle and advance further this season?
