Episode 74- All Time Los Angeles Kings Team with Special guests!!

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when three passionate hockey minds with over 100 years of combined Kings fandom come together to build the ultimate Los Angeles Kings team? Pure magic, heated debates, and a roster that would make any hockey fan's jaw drop.This special Royal Edition of Royally Quacked brings together host Gary Spink with Player Grades' Kevin Snyder and NHL Game Night host Eddie Garcia to construct an all-time Kings team capable of defeating the all-time Ducks squad assembled in last week's episode. But before selecting a single player, the fundamental question emerges: should selections be based solely on what players accomplished wearing the crown, or can brief Kings tenures from legendary players count?The journey through Kings history reveals fascinating perspectives on franchise icons. While the Triple Crown Line of Marcel Dionne, Dave Taylor, and Charlie Simmer earns universal respect, the panelists present compelling cases for different line combinations. Eddie boldly positions Anze Kopitar as the greatest King ever, placing Wayne Gretzky—whom he considers "the most influential King but not the greatest King"—on his second line. These thoughtful distinctions between cultural impact and sustained excellence spark fascinating discussions about what truly defines Kings royalty.As defensive pairings and goaltending selections unfold, the group navigates through Hall of Famers like Drew Doughty, Rob Blake, and Larry Robinson (whose astonishing +722 career plus-minus becomes a passionate talking point). The unanimous selection of Jonathan Quick and Rogie Vachon as netminders provides rare moments of complete agreement amidst friendly disagreement elsewhere.By the episode's end, power play units are configured, Darryl Sutter and Dean Lombardi are installed as coach and GM, and even jersey designs are debated—Forum blue and gold versus Gretzky-era silver and black. What emerges is not just an all-time Kings team, but a love letter to Kings hockey history through the eyes of three fans who've lived and breathed it for decades.Will this dream team defeat the all-time Ducks roster?
