“LOS ANGELELS, CA - The LA Kings celebrate past, present and future groundbreaking women in sport with the help of artist, construction Project Manager, and former professional hockey goaltender, Kimberly Sass of SASS STUDIO. Various custom stickers collaged within the Kings shield pays homage to all the female athletes that have proven they have no limits. The imagery is a proud acknowledgment of all the barriers that have been broken by pioneering women and the doors this has opened for younger generations. As an advocate for females in STEM, and referencing Sass’ profession in construction, Sass included some construction related stickers as a nod to all females in traditionally male dominated fields as they continue to change the narrative. Sass has been personally impacted by two female athletes within the Kings family: Manon Rhéaume, as one of her coaches growing up and a role model to her as a goalie, and Blake Bolden, as an inspirational fellow NWHL and PWHPA player.”
