Los Angeles Kings
 NEWS FROM THE STANDARD
And Now, Our Digital Presentation

 PROFILE
These kings have yet to be crowned hockey champions. The Los Angeles Kings franchise was first awarded to Jack Kent Cooke (at the time the owner of the Lakers and later the owner of the Washington Redskins) and began play in the LA Forum in 1967. The team's one and only appearance in the Stanley Cup finals came in 1993, but the Kings, led by hockey great Wayne Gretzky (acquired in 1988), lost to the Montreal Canadiens. (Gretzky was traded in 1996.) The Kings now play in the Staples Center, built after Denver billionaire Philip Anschutz and Los Angeles developer Edward Roski bought the team in 1995. Anschutz is also majority owner of the Staples Center, of which Fox Entertainment owns 40%.
