商品簡介
Since joining the NHL in 1967, the LA Kings have been a unique franchise from both appearance and geographical standpoints.
Initially owned by Canadian business magnate Jack Kent Cooke, the LA Kings were arguably the most conspicuous on the NHL's post-expansion era, sporting forum-blue-and-gold jerseys while playing out of the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood.
Their first coach was Hall-of-Famer Red Kelly while their first goaltender was another Hall-of-Famer Terry Sawchuk. Yet, despite their lineage, the Kings had trouble finding success early on. When they did, though, they began to gain traction, mostly thanks to stars -- and future Hall-of-Famers Rogie Vachon and Marcel Dionne.
It wasn't until 1988, though, when, thanks to the acquisition of Wayne Gretzky, the Kings became the hottest ticket in Los Angeles, opening the floodgates for new generations of fans.
After years of struggling, however, the Kings found their way, winning the Stanley Cup in 2012 and 2014.
"Royal Reflections: Tales from the Throne of Tinseltown" is a collection of interviews from over 60 former Kings players -- and more -- from different eras in franchise history, discussing their respective tenures with the club and how they enjoyed the City of Angels away from the rink.
This book is also co-authored by the Kings' longtime TV sportscaster Bob Miller, who shares a series of great stories about his career with the franchise.
This is a must-read for any hockey fan, Kings or not.
