They’ve opened their series against the Edmonton Oilers with a commanding 2-0 lead—a feat they’ve never accomplished before.

With Adrian Kempe leading the charge with a brace, and the likes of Brandt Clarke contributing to a solid power play performance, the Kings are bringing something special to this series. The last time Edmonton witnessed this level of unity and determination from their adversaries, they went on to clinch the Cup. Is history repeating itself?
