This Date in LA Kings History: June 9th

June 9, 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 June 9, 1969, the @LAKings acquired Dennis Hextall and Leon Rochefort from the New York Rangers for Real Lemieux. In one season with the #LAKings, Hextall scored 12 points in 28 games, and Rochefort scored 32 points in 76 games.#GoKingsGo pic.twitter.com/C5XZ1zvyQi
