The Los Angeles Kings have some glaring needs this offseason. Aside from finding a head coach, they're also in the market for a top-six impact player—preferably a center—to add some desperately-needed offense. They finished 29th in the NHL in goals per game. So there will be some changes as GM Ken Holland assesses the market. Trades will be made, and some players won't be back. But according to Eric Stephens of The Athletic, there are seven players that won't be going anywhere (we'll add...

It was leaked last week that the Vegas Golden Knights denied the Edmonton Oilers permission to speak with their fired head coach (who is still under contract) for Edmonton's vacancy behind the bench. Now it's being confirmed by insider Andy Strickland on the Cam & Strick podcast that the Golden Knights also denied the Los Angeles Kings permission to talk to Cassidy. Is Vegas being pet...

The goaltender market is starting to look like it'll be a busy one this offseason.
