Top Kings News

  • Kings' Henry Brzustewicz: Four assists in OHL blowout win

    Brzustewicz registered four assists in OHL London's 10-2 win over Erie on Friday.

    With the effort, Brzustewicz reached the 50-point mark on the season. He has 12 points over 11 contests in February, but he's already earned six points in three games in March. The Kings prospect now has 17 goals, 33 helpers, 212 shots on net, 55 PIM and a minus-13 rating for the Knights this season.

  • Kings' Joel Armia: Facing multi-week absence

    General manager Ken Holland said Friday that Armia (upper body) is expected to miss 3-4 weeks, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

    Armia was placed on injured reserve by the Kings on Monday after suffering an upper-body injury against the Oilers last week, and he's slated to be sidelined until at least the second half of March due to the issue. Over 53 appearances this year, he's generated 10 goals, 10 assists, 55 hits, 28 blocked shots and 24 PIM while averaging 14:20 of ice time.

  • Kings' Quinton Byfield: Might be available for Saturday

    Byfield (upper body) might be an option for Saturday's game against Montreal, per John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio.

    Byfield has 13 goals, 33 points, 30 PIM, 45 hits and 33 blocks in 58 appearances in 2025-26. He's missed the Kings' past two games because of the injury. Kenny Connors might be a healthy scratch versus the Canadiens if Byfield is available.

  • Kings' Andrei Kuzmenko: Done for regular season

    Kuzmenko (knee) isn't expected to return before the end of the 2025-26 regular season, per John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio on Friday.

    Kuzmenko underwent knee surgery last Saturday to repair a torn meniscus. He had 13 goals, 25 points and 69 shots on net across 52 appearances this campaign. If the Kings qualify for the playoffs, it's unclear when Kuzmenko will be ready to return to the lineup.

  • Kings' Kevin Fiala: Ruled out for playoffs

    Fiala (lower leg fracture) won't be available before training camp for the 2026-27 campaign, per John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio on Friday.

    Fiala was already ruled out for the rest of the regular season, but now the possibility of him returning for the playoffs has also been eliminated. He suffered the injury while playing for Switzerland during the 2026 Winter Olympics. He'll finish the 2025-26 campaign with 18 goals and 40 points in 56 outings with the Kings.

  • Kings' Scott Laughton: Headed out west

    Laughton (not injury related) was traded to Los Angeles on Friday from Toronto in exchange for a conditional third-round pick, Emily Kaplan of ESPN reports.

    Laughton was limited to just 63 regular-season games for the Leafs over the last two years, logging 10 goals and six helpers along the way. The veteran forward should offer the Kings some depth down the middle but will likely remain in a bottom-six role. As such, he's unlikely to produce more than mid-range fantasy value down the stretch.

  • Kings' Quinton Byfield: Could return Monday

    Byfield (upper body) will join the Kings for their upcoming five-game road trip, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Friday.

    Byfield's recovery timeline will see him remain on the shelf versus the Habs on Saturday, but he at least appears to be trending in the right direction. The Ontario native was heating up offensively prior to getting hurt, racking up four goals and one assist in his last seven outings. Once given the all-clear, Byfield should be in line for a middle-six role with the Kings.

  • Kings' Mathieu Joseph: Agrees to deal

    Joseph has agreed to a one-year, $900,000 pro-rated contract with the Kings on Friday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

    St. Louis placed Joseph on waivers Thursday for the purpose of terminating his contract, and once he passed through waivers, he agreed to a deal with the Kings. Joseph had two goals, nine assists, 85 hits and 28 blocked shots over 39 games with the Blues this season.

  • Kings' Anze Kopitar: Adds assist in milestone game

    Kopitar recorded an assist and blocked three shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    This was Kopitar's 1,500th NHL regular-season game, making him the 25th player to reach that milestone. He's earned four helpers over his last six contests, but he's 21 games removed from his last goal. The 38-year-old center, who is retiring at the end of this year, could move up as high as 23rd on the NHL's games-played list if he appears in all 21 of the Kings' remaining contests. He has 25 points, 56 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating over 46 appearances in his farewell campaign.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Kings' Drew Doughty: Draws assist in return

    Doughty notched an assist and two blocked shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Doughty missed two games due to a lower-body injury, but he led the Kings with 25:48 of ice time in his return. The 36-year-old defenseman should be fine to handle his usual top-pairing role moving forward. He's up to 15 points, 72 shots on net, 57 blocked shots, 30 PIM and 24 hits over 51 appearances this season. With a drop in nearly every statistical area compared to his peak years, it looks like Father Time has caught up with Doughty a bit.

  • Kings' Brandt Clarke: Earns pair of assists

    Clarke registered two assists, including one on the power play, and added two shots on net and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Clarke set up third-period tallies by Alex Laferriere and Adrian Kempe. The 23-year-old Clarke has two goals and three helpers over five contests since the Olympic break. The blueliner is up to 32 points (11 on the power play), 121 shots on net, 119 blocked shots, 42 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 61 appearances this season. He's two points away from surpassing the 33-point output he had in 78 regular-season outings last year.

  • Kings' Samuel Helenius: Scores in win

    Helenius scored a goal and added six hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Helenius put the Kings ahead 2-0 in the second period. The 23-year-old forward continues to see limited minutes in a fourth-line role, but he appears to have a good chance to stay in the lineup down the stretch. He snapped a five-game point drought Thursday and is up to four goals, two assists, 23 shots on net, 34 PIM and 88 hits through 33 appearances this season.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Kings' Alex Laferriere: Tallies on power play

    Laferriere scored a power-play goal on five shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Laferriere has two goals over his last three games, suggesting his offense is coming around again. The 24-year-old forward has maintained decent totals in shots and hits amid a rough patch on offense. He's up to 15 goals, 28 points (two on the power play), 148 shots, 180 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 61 appearances. Laferriere still has the time to push for his first 20-goal campaign.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Rare two-point effort in win

    Anderson scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and blocked three shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Anderson snapped an eight-game slump with the effort. He missed two contests due to an upper-body injury during that drought. Anderson hadn't logged multiple points in a game since April 10 of last season. The defenseman is at three goals, eight helpers, 47 shots on net, 70 hits and 88 blocks through 59 appearances in 2025-26. He continues to see top-four minutes as a shutdown blueliner.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Kings' Adrian Kempe: Adds two points in win

    Kempe scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Kempe has three goals and three assists over five games since the Olympics. The 29-year-old forward continues to be steady in a top-line role for the Kings, and he's already clicking well with Artemi Panarin. Kempe has 23 goals, 29 assists, 171 shots on net, 108 hits, 54 PIM and a plus-7 rating through 61 appearances, making him a reliable all-around option in fantasy.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Kings' Artemi Panarin: One of each in win

    Panarin scored a goal on two shots, added a power-play assist and went plus-3 in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    The goal 3:17 into the game was Panarin's first as a King. He's earned five points in five contests with his new team since he was traded from the Rangers. For the season, Panarin has 20 goals, 62 points, 169 shots on net and a minus-14 rating across 57 appearances. Panarin has claimed a top-line role as expected and should perform at a point-per-game pace at a minimum.

  • Kings' Darcy Kuemper: Gives up three goals in win

    Kuemper stopped 31 of 34 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

    Kuemper had lost his last two outings, giving up eight goals on 38 shots. The 35-year-old still got a little leaky here, giving up three goals in the final 20:01 of the contest, but the Kings gave him enough help to get the win. Kuemper is up to 15-12-9 with a 2.68 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 38 appearances. The Kings host the Canadiens on Saturday in what could be a challenging matchup for Kuemper if he gets the nod. He stopped 21 of 22 shots in a 5-1 win over Montreal on Nov. 11.

  • Kings' Darcy Kuemper: Slated to start Thursday

    Kuemper (illness) is expected to start at home against the Islanders on Thursday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

    Kuemper missed Monday's game against Colorado due to the illness. He has a 14-12-9 record, 2.68 GAA and .897 save percentage in 37 outings in 2025-26. The Islanders suffered a 5-1 loss to Anaheim on Wednesday, which snapped New York's five-game winning streak. The Islanders are 35-22-5 this season.

  • Kings' Jared Wright: Up from AHL

    Wright was summoned from AHL Ontario on Thursday, according to John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio.

    Wright has 17 goals and 30 points in 54 outings with Ontario in 2025-26. The Kings had a free roster spot after trading Warren Foegele to Ottawa on Thursday in a deal that also included draft picks.
