"LA Kings Replace McLellan with Hiller Amid Coaching Shake-Up"
TL;DR Summary
LA Kings have replaced head coach Todd McLellan with assistant coach Jim Hiller for the remainder of the season after a prolonged slump, despite McLellan's contract extension last June. General Manager Rob Blake expressed gratitude for McLellan's contributions but felt the change was necessary. Hiller, a former Kings player, has been credited with improving the team's power play and will take over as interim head coach. The decision to promote from within was influenced by familiarity with the players, financial considerations, and the difficulty of bringing in a new coach midseason.
