Video Chat with Mattias Norstrom, Jay Wells and Garry Galley

The LA Kings held a video call with Mattias Norstrom, Jay Wells and Garry Galley to chat about their favorite and most impactful Kings teammates and what they do and don't like about today's NHL.

Hosted by Hall of Famer Nick Nickson, the players were asked about their time with the Kings and reminisced about playing together.

Jay Wells had more of an unusual path to becoming a defenseman.

"I had to two older brothers and they were finesse players. They scored the goals, they were the MVP's and then along came me... I never really handled the puck much. The reason why was because I never even saw a puck until I was 14 years old. Until I could be big enough to knock my brothers on their butt, I never saw a puck. All I could do is run around and hit people. One year I tried center and I liked it, but it was just too much skating!"

Mattias Norstrom talked about who has the biggest impact on him as a member of the Kings.

"One person that meant more to me in my whole career is Rob [Blake]. The way he treated people around him, no matter his success, his Norris Trophy's or Stanley Cup's with Colorado. The way he treated people and always put the team first. That's what I treasure. What he showed me, no matter how much personal success, you stay the same."

But Gary Galley set the truth straight about why Blake and Norstrom were especially a good fit playing together.

"The reason Matty [Norstrom] was playing with Rob [Blake] all those years is because Matty was built like a piece of steel. Rob would have obliterated any other partner they would have put him with. Matty was the only one he couldn't dent."

Galley also touched on his opinion of today's NHL.

"The game certainly has better skill-sets now. The players from top to bottom are outstanding. These guys are incredible athletes. I wish we would have had some of the knowledge and science and training."
