L.A. Kings Put Koreatown Senior Center Harmonica Class at Center Ice for Stanley Cup Playoffs National Anthem
The NHL's Los Angeles Kings invited the Koreatown Senior Center harmonica class to perform the national anthem at the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The L.A. hockey team invited the amateur harmonica troupe to play the national anthem at Game 1 of the series, on April 21, after they were so well-received during the Kings’ Korean heritage night celebration last month.
