Lassner is an executive producer for "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and has been with the show since 2003. He's won 18 daytime Emmy Awards in his distinguished career, and is
also a proud Kings Season Ticket Member

Hanks spends more of his time in front of the camera. The actor currently stars in the CBS sitcom "Life in Pieces" and has been in numerous critically acclaimed TV series, including "Fargo," "Dexter" and "Band of Brothers." He served as the official Kings correspondent for KROQ's "Kevin and Bean Show" during the 2012 and 2013 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
