Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar (rest) is expected to rejoin the lineup for Thursday's regular-season finale against the Calgary Flames. The Kings rested Kopitar on Tuesday against the Seattle Kraken. Several other players are scheduled to rest on Thursday, including Adrian Kempe, so Kopitar will have at least one new linemate for Thursday's contest. The Slovenian star leads the Kings with 46 assists and has tallied 67 points in 80 appearances. He has been on a scoring tear recently, notching two goals and three assists over his last three appearances.

Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar tallied three helpers during their 8-1 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday evening. Kopitar tallied his first helper with the primary assist on Adrian Kempe's power-play goal in the opening frame. In the second, Kopitar would tally the primary helper on Trevor Moore's 16th goal of the season. Then in the final period, Kopitar would tally his third helper of the night, this time on Andrei Kuzmenko's ninth of the campaign. Over his previous six contests, Kopitar has begun to turn the corner offensively as he has scored two goals and added five helpers. Before this recent surge, he tallied just five points (two goals) over his last eight. The 37-year-old will look to stay hot on Tuesday when the Kings host the Winnipeg Jets.
