The Gold Medal-winning Women's Olympic Hockey Team will drop puck before the LA Kings-Vegas Golden Knights game tonight at STAPLES Center.
In South Korea, the U.S. squad gave the United States its second gold medal in women's ice hockey after Team USA claimed the inaugural gold medal in the event at the 1998 Olympic Winter Games in Nagano, Japan (the U.S. Olympic Women's Ice Hockey Team has medaled in all six Olympic appearances to date).
They will be saluted on the ice pre-game and also featured in a special meet-and-greet with the LA Lions, the all-girls hockey club founded and operated by the Kings.
Fans are encouraged to arrive to the game early for the pre-game honor.
The pre-game activities will be carried live on FOX Sports West.
Tonight's game will be broadcast on FOX Sports West and KABC Radio 790.
