The Los Angeles Kings signed veterans Erik Haula, Erik Gustafsson, Mats Zuccarello, and Corey Perry to short-term, low-cost contracts, and re-signed Scott Laughton to a three-year deal after finishing 29th in goals per game. General manager Ken Holland stated the team needed to be creative with limited salary cap space to add offensive help. The Kings also anticipate contributions from returning forward Artemi Panarin and Kevin Fiala, along with new head coach Peter Laviolette's influence.
