The Los Angeles Kings aren't exactly going into the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs in perfect shape.

Although it seems likely that they will get players like Alec Martinez, Marian Gaborik, and Matt Greene back in the lineup at some point, the Kings have played some rather uninspired hockey since they clinched a playoff berth on March 21, winning just four games since then, and giving up almost four goals per game in their seven losses since March 21.
