Playoffs
editThe Los Angeles Kings entered the playoffs as the Pacific Division's third seed. They faced the San Jose Sharks in the first round. The Kings became only the fourth team in NHL history to win a series when trailing 3–0 in the series with their Game 7 win over the Sharks in the Western Conference First Round.[3] They later became the first team to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals having played 21 games. They also became the first team to win three Game 7s on the road. The Kings clinched their second Stanley Cup Finals berth in three years in the first meeting between teams from New York City and Los Angeles for a major professional sports championship since the Yankees and the Dodgers played in the 1981 World Series,[4][5] where they took on Eastern champions, the Rangers.
The Kings won the Stanley Cup in a double-overtime Game 5 victory. This was the team's second Stanley Cup championship in three years.
