They're picking up points left and right, winning big games, but with costly consequences.
Both Justin Williams and Anze Kopitar suffered season-ending injuries in recent games.
Perhaps the deadline acquisition of Dustin Penner looms even larger now.
Despite a few hiccups along the way, the Kings defense continues to be stellar.
And Jonathan Quick has been even better in net, especially during shootouts.
Quick is a perfect 9-0 in those situations.
And we all know how big defense and special teams are come post-season.
It's time to see how resilient this young team really is now by showing they can play through adversity.
