The Kings were not a powerful team until 1988. In that year, the Edmonton Oilers' star Wayne Gretzky entered the team. The team showed some improvement in the later years. In the 1992-93 season, they proceeded to the Stanley Cup playoffs. But, they lost to the veteran Montreal Canadiens. Players like Marcel Dionne and Wayne Gretzky earned many titles, while playing for the Kings. The team never made it to either the Stanley Cup or the Presidents' Trophy. They won one Conference Championship and one Division Championship in 1992-93 and 1990-91 seasons respectively.
