Doughty plays about 24 minutes in his season debut but the Kings fall, 3-0, and have lost seven of their past nine games, scoring just 15 goals in that stretch.

With the ongoing drama surrounding the Vancouver Canucks this season, multiple key players have surfaced on the trade market, including Elias Pettersson and JT Miller. Both players are coming off 100-point seasons and could propel an interested and qualifying team toward unprecedented greatness.
