## Resource

The LA Kings just signed defenseman Brandt Clarke to a five-year, $7.4M annual deal, locking him in through 2031 — a crucial move as the NHL Draft looms. Drafted 8th overall in 2021, Clarke’s breakout season — 40 points (8G, 32A) and multiple game-winners — made him indispensable. This team-friendly extension secures a cornerstone of their young defense and clears the way for bigger offseason priorities, positioning the Kings for sustained growth.
