The Insider Show | Tony Granato

Former LA Kings forward and current television analyst Tony Granato joins The Insider Show with Jared Shafran to discuss the offseason to this point and go deeper on some of the changes the team has made as they prepare for 2026-27. Granato’s familiarity with the league as a whole gives him a broader perspective of the moves and signings the Kings made, and he sheds further light on the style new head coach Peter Laviolette will bring as he steps behind the bench. Granato also reflects back on the Kings’ run to the 1993 Stanley Cup Final, which saw him play a prominent role alongside some of the best players in franchise history.
