On Saturday, March 7, the L.A. Kings faced the Pittsburgh Penguins at Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles. Before the game the Kings honored one of the all-time great Kings players — Luc Robitaille. There was a ceremony unveiling a statue of the left winger, who, in his 19-year career, earned 1,521 points and scored 726 goals.
