NHL team trolls their fans with the announcement of a fake trade!

It's just a prank bro!

That's the tune that the Los Angeles Kings are singing today after they announced a fake trade through their official social media account, an account that has just under one million followers, making this a far-reaching troll job.

The Kings sent out a message welcoming Tyler Ennis to California and sent the message out along with a picture of Buffalo Sabres Center Tyler Ennis, except it wasn't the Sabres forward who was traded at all.

On Thursday the Los Angeles Lakers made a move to acquire an NBA player who just happens to share an identical name, and with the trade deadline just days away the Kings couldn't resist the opportunity.

Well played.
