William Nylander would be perfect for the bright lights of Los Angeles

The Los Angeles Kings are one of the best teams in the league right now. They have slowly but surely built back up into being contenders. They had a couple of high draft picks along the way and most of them have worked out well.

They kept Anze Kopitar and Drew Doughty through it all but they have surrounded them with other young stars. By the time the 2023-24 season is over, however, they might be willing to spend some more money on another star.

William Nylander would be a great addition to that team. They have a guy like Quinton Byfield playing on the wing because they have Kopitar with Phillip Danault and Pierre-Luc Dubois down the middle. Nylander would be incredible on any of those lines.

As mentioned before, Nylander likes the bright lights. There aren’t many lights brighter than that of Los Angeles. If he went to the Kings, he’d become a superstar off the ice in the US which might be something he wants.

Scoring all of these goals for the Kings would be fun to see because of the energy that comes with that team. Los Angeles just might be able to capture another Stanley Cup if they made a signing like this.
