The LA Kings have once again acquired a veteran winger to bolster scoring for a playoff push.
Jarome Iginla may have only eight goals this season, but the last time the veteran winger failed to score fewer than 20 goals in a full season was 1997-98, which was his second year in the league. He ranks 16th in career NHL goals (619) and will be expected to bring that finishing ability to a Kings team currently ranked 25th in offense.
While his offense suffered on a struggling Avalanche squad, he has shown signs that his ability to put the puck in the net hasn't disappeared.
Hello, Jarome Iginla! ...Goodbye, Dwight King
