Summary
LA Kings fans face a surprising twist as Corey Perry, long considered the franchise’s greatest on-ice villain, now plays for Los Angeles. Does Perry top your all-time hate list, or do names like Matthew Tkachuk, Connor McDavid, or even Wayne Gretzky stir stronger emotions? Eddie Garcia breaks down The Athletic’s picks for each NHL team’s biggest villain that involve current or former Kings players, explores bitter rivalries with the Anaheim Ducks, Edmonton Oilers, and San Jose Sharks. Plus, with contract controversies swirling, Eddie Garcia reviews the top 10 worst NHL contracts—are any Kings on the list? What about potential Kings? The episode also features an update on the Kings’ top prospects Henry Bzrustewicz and Elton Hermansson at the World Junior Summer Showcase.
