Los Angeles Kings History
The Kings were founded in 1967 as part of the six-team influx that saw the NHL expand to 12 teams. There were some shining stars; Rogie Vachon was stellar goaltender, while Hall of Famer Marcel Dionne lit the lamp at a furious pace alongside his "Triple Crown" line mates Dave Taylor and Charlie Simmer. The Kings’ biggest postseason success during this time was with 1982's "Miracle on Manchester," where the Kings made the largest comeback in NHL playoff history to win 6-5 over the heavily favored Edmonton Oilers, who were led by a 21-year-old phenom named Wayne Gretzky.
Six years later, the Kings landed The Great One. Alongside fellow stars Jari Kurri, Luc Robitaille, Rob Blake, and Kelly Hrudey, the team flirted with success for several years, ultimately losing to the Montreal Canadiens in the Stanley Cup Final in 1993.
Shortly after the turn of the century, the Kings broke through in a big way, winning the Stanley Cup Championship in 2012 and 2014 under coach Darryl Sutter.

Fans were great...Great smaller Hockey arena and that made it perfect for the game.
Nothing is better than when the LA Kings win a game....even if it is pre-season. The tickets we got from Ticketmaster couldnt have been better. 1st row, seats A+B.....right on the ICE !!!! It was great to check out all of the new rookies and cheer on the returning players for my favorite sports franchise..... Even the wife had a blast.....
When we were approached about purchasing tickets for the "once in a lifetime event" we jumped on it, but didn't find out until we were seated in our overpriced seats that there were no 1st line players, very disappointing.
We have been Kings season seat holders for 25 years - from the Forum to Staples. Good to be back in any arena to see our Kings! Great game, but unfortunately the arena left us hungry LITERALLY! Got there early to eat and after waiting in line (3 different concessions) for over 40 MINUTES, we missed the first 2 goals and finally just walked away with no food and went to our seats. The people manning the food stands were INDIVIDUALLY COOKING EACH ORDER only as it was ordered....and considering there were only 3 things on the menu, it's not rocket science to put more than 1 hot dog on the grill when you are faced with a very long line! People were really getting mad and walking away. Very unfortunate as the arena is a nice small venue and fun to watch the Kings play in such a personal setting. The game was great! Even watching with a grumbling stomach.
MGM Grande was it usual noisy venue. They could update their big screens. We are pretty spoiled after watching games at the Pepsi center, I admit, but MGM is WAY behind the times !!! Seats were not great this year. Will try to move to better section next year. Did see Rob Blake up close and personal !!! Awesome.
Frozen Fury has once again come and gone. My favorite day of the year. Everybody wearing hockey sweaters! Got the tickets a little earlier this year thus seats were a little better. Every seat @ Grand Garden Arena is good anyhow. Staff is friendly. Concession lines were pretty long, even between periods. Guess everyone was extra hungry and thirsty. Had other Kings fans all around us. I hate when I get stuck next to an assalanche fan. They should have their own section outside by the dumpsters. Left a couple minutes early to beat the crowds. Overall it was a great time as usual. Been to every NHL preseason game since I moved here in 95, when they used to play at T&M. Cant wait until next year!
blocked view of both goals, the light/ sound system was in the way
GAME was great. We live here in Las Vegas, this is one and only GAME here in Vegas. Frozen Fury is always AMAZING! However, this year's fan/audience were terrible. Sooooooooo many empty seats out there so people were moving around, stuff didn't care, kicking yelling everywhere was not likable. But I'm die hard KINGS FAN, so look forward next year!
Despite the LA King loss, it was a great game! I would have given the game 5 out of 5 stars if the Kings won the game. : )
You couldn't ask for a better game! 3-2 Avs win in a shootout.
Excellent event. good seats good fans. nice staff. lightinh good
This game was incredible! Lots of action from both teams. The game was decided in a shootout and the visiting Colorado Avalanche (the team I was cheering for) came out victorious!
Enjoyed game as usual. Daughter got sick and we had to leave while we were still ahead. Too bad we couldn't hold the lead. Glad they went back to only having one game instead of the two. We will be back again next year. Toffoli and Richards looked good. Go Kings!!!
This is my 5th or 6th time attending Frozen Fury. I always have fun. Great seats, great atmosphere.
What's better than watching the Stanley Cup Champs at the MGM in Vegas!!
except for the drunks in front of us had a great time
I am a huge Kings fan, and this was my first time at Frozen Fury. Honestly I would attend again!!! The arena is very clean, and have strict rules about standing up during plays, which I liked. A lot of times at Staples people walk through and block views during a game play. We sat in section 206, row Q, seats 22 and 23. Great view anywhere in the venue. We were one row below the last row. Price was affordable for tickets, only thing was hotel prices were SUPER high!! But that isn't ticketmasters problem. The only issue with the stadium was some minor tech problems, but this happens anywhere. Honestly, I would return again!!!
I've been trying to go to Frozen Fury for about 10 years now and was finally able to make it happen this year. Now I'm even more bummed I missed it for all these years cause it was a blast. We had nose bleed seats and still had a better view of the game than some mid level seats at Staples Center. MGM Grand Arena is an awesome place to watch hockey. I hope the Kings continue the Frozen Fury tradition for many years to come so my wife and I can make it our new October tradition.
So much fun. Can't wait until next year!! GO KINGS GO!
I have been coming to the Frozen Fury since the Avalanche and Kings have been playing and I try not to miss it because it is so fun and exciting if your a hockey lover this event is for you. You won't be disappointed.
