No. 18: Jeff Carter

The two-time Stanley Cup champion and Gold Medal-winning Canadian Olympian has scored 339 goals and added 311 assists in 877 NHL games.

We can only hope we get a celly like this next season.
In the 2016-17 season, Carter led the Kings in points.
By doing so, he broke another center's nine-year streaking of leading the Kings in points...

No. 13: Anze Kopitar

Even Andy Lassner can't stop him.
