Anze Kopitar Collects Three Assists

Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar recorded his 24th career game with at least three assists in Tuesday's 5-2 triumph over the Senators. Wayne Gretzky (67), Marcel Dionne (43) and Dave Taylor (28) and now the only players in franchise history with more such efforts. One of his helpers came on the power play, and […]

Alex Iafallo Ready To Go Tuesday

Los Angeles Kings left wing Alex Iafallo (lower body) will make his first appearance since Oct. 17 in Tuesday's battle with the Senators. He will skate in only his fifth game of the season after going down very early on with a lower-body injury. It was a bitter blow for Iafallo at the start of […]

Alex Iafallo Nearing Return

Los Angeles Kings left wing Alex Iafallo (lower body) is on the cusp of returning to the lineup. He's expected to make his comeback during the team's upcoming six-game road trip.

Anze Kopitar Nets Two Goals In Thursday's Win

Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar pushed his side to a 5-3 victory over Arizona Thursday with two goals, including the game-winner.

Calvin Petersen Placed On Waivers

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen was placed on waivers Wednesday. This is a very surprising move from the team, considering that Petersen has only just started the first season of a three-year deal worth $15 million, but his $5 million cap hit makes it very unlikely that somebody claims him. Petersen earned the nice […]

Kevin Fiala Has A Four-Point Night

Los Angeles Kings winger Kevin Fiala piled up four assists as the team took a 9-8 overtime loss against Seattle Tuesday night. He set up for different skaters for a goal and his flurry of assists included a power-play helper. This was Fiala's second big effort in a week after he also had a three-point […]

Gabriel Vilardi Looks Set To Return Tuesday

Los Angeles Kings winger Gabriel Vilardi (upper body) should be good to go Tuesday versus Seattle, according to head coach Todd McLellan.
