Summary
The LA Kings just secured Scott Laughton on a three-year, ~$4.5M/year deal — a savvy move made before free agency even started. Acquired at the trade deadline from Toronto, Laughton immediately delivered playoff grit, scoring 5 goals and 8 points in 21 games while anchoring tough minutes. With Anze Kopitar retiring, Laughton steps in as a vital veteran presence — smart, defensively responsible, and capable of elevating the team’s intensity, especially in high-stakes moments.
