Hollywood Blvd. News – Los Angeles Kings Edition
- Updated: October 21, 2014
We like to start our day searching the web and reading articles about our beloved LA sports teams. It’s easy to get lost in the depth of the inter web, but luckily for you we have compiled a list of the most interesting and pertinent news stories for your morning reading pleasure. For this edition, let’s dive into the news surrounding the Los Angeles Kings.
The LA Kings beat the Minnesota Wild on Sunday afternoon. ABC News and the Associated Press wrote a recap of the game which can be seen below.
“The Los Angeles Kings spent much of the afternoon trapped in their own end while the Minnesota Wild pelted them with 41 shots.
Thanks to Jonathan Quick and two more timely contributions from That 70s Line, the Kings are still perfect on their homestand.
Quick made 40 saves and Tyler Toffoli had a goal and an assist in the Kings’ fourth straight victory, 2-1 over the Minnesota Wild on Sunday.
Toffoli scored an early power-play goal and Tanner Pearson added a third-period goal for the defending Stanley Cup champions, who are dominating their six-game homestand despite long stretches of indifferent offensive play.
“I don’t think we’ve had our game for the last little while,” center Jarret Stoll said. “We’re winning on penalty-killing and goaltending.”
That’s enough when the champions can get incredibly consistent production from That 70s Line — the jersey-number-inspired nickname for Jeff Carter’s combo with youngsters Toffoli and Pearson. The trio has scored 11 of Los Angeles’ 14 goals this season.”

Yesterday CaliSports News reported the arrest of LA Kings player, Slava Voynov.
“According to Pierre LeBrun of ESPN.com Los Angeles Kings defenseman Slava Voynov has been suspended indefinitely after he was arrested on charges of domestic violence.
Voynov was arrested early this morning and the NHL moved swiftly on a decision to suspend him. It looks like they have learned a thing or two from the NFL on how not to handle a domestic violence situation.
The NHL will begin a formal investigation the matter immediately.
ESPN.com explains the NHL collective agreement rules about a criminal investigation here.
“The League may suspend the Player pending the League’s formal review and disposition of the matter where the failure to suspend the Player during this period would create a substantial risk of material harm to the legitimate interests and/or reputation of the League.”
