Los Angeles Kings players and staff are joining in the nationwide celebration of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month. The NHL team is showing its support by highlighting the contributions and experiences of its AANHPI players, including Anze Kopitar, who is of Slovenian and Italian descent, but has a wife of Korean descent and is an advocate for diversity and inclusion in hockey. The Kings' efforts are part of a broader NHL initiative to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion across the league. As the hockey world continues to grow and become more diverse, the Kings' celebration serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of representation and inclusivity in sports.
