The LA Kings Celebrate Hockey is For Everyone

The LA Kings celebrated Hockey is For Everyone (HIFE) Night on February 22nd as part of the NHL's league-wide initiative in February.
Hockey is For Everyone is intended to recognize non-traditional, up-and-coming and adapted sports leagues that make hockey accessible to everyone.
Willie O'Ree, HIFE Ambassador for the NHL, dropped the puck to kick off the game.

The Kings also welcomed representatives from several teams, including the Hawthorne Force, Power Project, Kings Sled Hockey, LA Lions, California Condors and SNAP Flyers to join Kings players on the ice for the Anthem.

During the two intermissions, members of the LA Lions participated in an exhibition game and later that evening so did the Kings' Sled Hockey team.

Then on February 26th, to further demonstrate the pervasiveness of hockey across all genders and abilities, the Kings hosted and honored the U.S. Gold Medal Winning Women's Olympic Hockey.
