Every era of Los Angeles Kings hockey, one lineup. These are the highest-rated Los Angeles Kings legends across the 1960s to today — a full starting six from goal to the top line, chosen by iKnoBall's era-adjusted engine — and the record they'd post over an 82-game season.
Offense is weighted 52%, defense 48% — exactly how iKnoBall scores a roster. Think you'd start a different six? Prove it.
Jonathan Quick headlines the group at a 91 overall — the kind of number only genuine all-time greats reach on iKnoBall's scale. Around Quick, the model fills out a complete six that balances goaltending, a shutdown blueline, and a scoring line across Los Angeles Kings history, then simulates all 82 games. The result — 75–7 — reflects both the raw talent and how the pieces fit on both sides of the puck.

Build Your All-Time TeamGet the AppBy iKnoBall's era-adjusted ratings the all-time Los Angeles Kings starting six is Jonathan Quick (G, 2010s), Drew Doughty (D, 2010s), Rob Blake (D, 1990s), Wayne Gretzky (C, 1990s), Luc Robitaille (W, 1980s), Dave Taylor (W, 1980s). Together they project to a 75–7 regular season.
iKnoBall's simulation projects this starting six at 75–7 over an 82-game season, with an average starter rating of 92. The model runs each game as a probability from the roster's combined offensive and defensive strength, so an all-time team contends for a near-perfect year but nothing is guaranteed.
Each player's overall is era-adjusted so a 1960s Original Six legend and a modern superstar sit on the same 70–99 scale. Offense (center and wings) is weighted 52% and defense (goaltending and blueline) 48%, and only true all-time greats reach the mid-to-high 90s.
