Funny that Clarke and Kempe are both listed as the same size of 6'2" and 200lbs. No way Clarke is 200..

If you go on their IG from a few weeks ago he's in one of those post game photos no gear where they hand out the fire helmet for player of the game.

He has arms like a 5th grader, he is nowhere near 200 pounds, maybe 165 soaking wet.

Our boy PLD and company in town on Thursday. Ovechkin is 9 goals away from Gretzky.

Might have to cruise down and maybe see that game.

And you know he's going to go off and rack up some points. He's already at 17G/40A on the season.

I still bust up looking back at his "Tour of LA" thing in 2023.

TA ranking all 32 teams goaltending, Kings coming in at 17th:

17. Los Angeles Kings

A reunion with Bill Ranford in Los Angeles has Darcy Kuemper playing like he’s 27 again. After two underwhelming seasons in Washington following his Cup win in Colorado, Kuemper looks rejuvenated playing behind a strong Kings defense. It’s a credit to Ranford — who was Los Angeles’ goalie coach when Kuemper first played there in 2017 and has since moved to director of goaltending — and Kuemper for rediscovering his game as he approaches 35.

Kuemper is tied for the fifth-highest save percentage in the NHL at .915, but he’s been very insulated playing behind a dominant defense. The true test will come in the postseason, but it’s hard not to like what we’ve seen from Kuemper this year.

David Rittich’s game has taken a step back after an impressive 2023-24, but he’s been reliable enough for the Kings to not overwork Kuemper, which is valuable.
