The Kings have won just three of their past 17 games after a promising start that included an NHL-record 11-game road win streak to open the season
After a promising start to the season that gave way to a stretch of winning just three of their past 17 games, the Kings fired Todd McLellan on Friday and named Jim Hiller interim head coach for the remainder of the season.
McLellan, 56, went 164-130-44 over parts of four seasons. The past two seasons ended with heartbreaking opening-round playoff losses to the Edmonton Oilers.
