Kings Kevin Fiala calls out Kings coaching staff over their system
It's always interesting to find out what players truly think when they have been knocked out of the playoffs especially in the first round. Los Angeles Kings forward Kevin Fiala sat down after doing his exit interviews during locker clean out day and called out his coach for the style of system they're playing.
The Kings are currently guided by interim head coach Jim Hiller who coached the team for 34 games during this year. He amassed a record of 21-12-1 for 43 points and lost in the first round in five games to the Edmonton Oilers.
The 27-year-old left winger who had a solid production year with the Kings through 82 games as he scored 29 goals with 44 assists for 73 points and 62 penalty minutes. Hiller chose to implement the 1-3-1 style of hockey as playoff hockey is quite different than regular season hockey.
It's been well known throughout the year that the LA Kings have had struggles in scoring goals, and it remains to be seen on whether general manager Rob Blake will continue with Hiller or go to the outside and look for a new head coach which there are several prominent ones available.
