This Date in LA Kings History: February 20th

February 20, 2021 By Harry Ouzounian

From their humble beginning as one of the NHL’s Second Six expansion teams in 1967, through winning two Stanley Cups in three years and becoming a league powerhouse in 2012-14, the LA Kings have experienced a rich hockey history over the past 50-plus years. Below are some key franchise moments that occurred on this date.

On February 20, 1970, the @LAKings acquired Gilles Marotte, Denis DeJordy and Jim Stanfield from Chicago for Bryan Campbell, Gerry Desjardins and Bill White. Marotte scored 130 points in 271 games, DeJordy won 23 games, and Stanfield played 7 games with the #LAKings.#GoKingsGo pic.twitter.com/cIlcQuVnrd
