All-Star Game selections

The National Hockey League All-Star Game is a mid-season exhibition game held annually between many of the top players of each season. Forty-four All-Star Games have been held since the Kings entered the League in 1967, with at least one player chosen to represent the Kings in each year. The All-Star Game has not been held in various years: 1979 and 1987 due to the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez-vous '87 series between the NHL and the Soviet national team, respectively; 1995, 2005 and 2013 as a result of labor stoppages; 2006, 2010 and 2014 due to the Winter Olympic Games; and 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[29] Los Angeles has hosted three All-Star Games. The 33rd Game took place at The Forum while the 52nd Game and 62nd Game took place at Staples Center.[30]
