LOS ANGELES — After a perfect road trip in which they earned a 4-0-0 record, and after a 13-3-4 record since the end of January, the Los Angeles Kings took a well-earned night off on March 17.

Apparently, they forgot that they were hosting the St. Louis Blues that night, dropping an embarrassing 4-0 loss, one in which they were never competitive…not even close.

NOTES

The Kings have earned a point in twenty of their last 24 games (16-4-4).

The Kings have now killed 26 straight penalties, 54 of the last 58 penalties (93.1 percent) and 69 of the last 74 penalties (93.2 percent).

The Kings have won forty games for the eighth time in their history, and is the first time the Kings have earned consecutive forty-win seasons.

This season marks the fifth time in club history the Kings have won twenty games at home and on the road in the same season.

85 points through 71 games is tied for the fifth most in club history (with the 2001-02 club).

Jonathan Quick is 11-4-1 in his last 16 games, and is the first Kings goalie with back-to-back thirty-win seasons.
