A trio of young Los Angeles Kings players were on a United States roster that experienced heartbreak in the gold-medal game at the Vancouver Olympics, while one of their NHL teammates played a key role for the winning Canadian side. All four of them will reunite with a different goal in mind. Gold medal-winning defenseman Drew Doughty and his American counterparts hope to continue the Kings’ push toward their first playoff berth in eight years as the team returns from the Olympic break by visiting the Dallas Stars on Tuesday night. Forward Dustin Brown and defenseman Jack Johnson helped the United States exceed expectations and win silver, while Jon Quick served as the third-string goalie.
But Doughty - the youngest member of Team Canada - ended up with bragging rights over his NHL teammates after he was on the ice for Sidney Crosby’s tournament-winning goal in overtime of the Canadians’ 3-2 win on Sunday. The confluence of young talent has made Los Angeles one of the league’s biggest surprises this season. The Kings are in fifth place in the Western Conference, and it would take a major collapse for them to miss out on their first postseason appearance since 2002. Two of the biggest reasons have been Quick and Anze Kopitar, a Slovenian whose nation did not qualify for the Olympics. Kopitar leads the Kings with 64 points, and he has five goals in three games against Dallas this season - all wins.
