Los Angeles Kings Optimistic About Prolonged Reunion with Goalie Darcy Kuemper

Friday, June 21st, 2024

Darcy Kuemper, now joining the Los Angeles Kings for the second time, conveyed his excitement about this return, pointing to previous successes and a strong desire for teamwork.

Having been traded from the Washington Capitals in exchange for Pierre-Luc Dubois, Kuemper has had stints with five different teams throughout his career, including a period with the Kings in 2017. After his trade to Arizona in 2018, he is now focused on reclaiming his winning form.

Kuemper is set to join David Rittich as a goalkeeper for the Kings in the 2024-25 season, filling the role previously held by Cam Talbot. He is eager to revisit his championship performance from the 2021-22 season with Colorado.

Even though he served as a backup to Charlie Lindgren in Washington, where the Capitals faced a sweep by the Rangers, Kuemper remains positive about his capabilities and is committed to contributing to the Kings' success.
