Kings' Trevor Moore: Placed on injured reserve
Moore (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
Moore has been sidelined since Dec. 29 due to an illness and upper-body injury, and it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return. However, the Kings indicated Wednesday that Moore is considered day-to-day, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him back in action in the near future. Cole Guttman was recalled from AHL Ontario to provide additional depth in Moore's absence.

Kings' Cole Guttman: Called up Thursday
Guttman was recalled from AHL Ontario on Thursday.
Guttman hasn't played in an NHL game since the 2023-24 campaign, when he saw action in 27 outings with the Blackhawks. In those appearances, the California native notched four goals and four assists, including three power-play points. With his promotion to the NHL roster, Guttman could be in the lineup versus Winnipeg on Friday, as he gives the team a full complement of 12 healthy forwards.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: Sends pair of assists
Edmundson logged two assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Edmundson had a hand in third-period goals by Kevin Fiala and Alex Laferriere. The 32-year-old Edmundson has three helpers over his last five outings. For the season, the veteran defenseman is at 16 points, 59 shots on net, 51 hits, 42 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 42 appearances. He's on pace for a career year and could have some appeal in deep fantasy formats thanks to his steady physical play.

Kings' Alex Laferriere: Puts away goal
Laferriere scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Laferriere looked to give the Kings a win with his tally at 17:50 of the third period, but Macklin Celebrini was able to tie the game before setting up William Eklund's goal in overtime. Even though the result didn't go the Kings' way, Laferriere shined in a season-high 20:40 of ice time. He has four goals and two assists over his last six outings and is up to 11 goals, 21 points, 100 shots on net, 115 hits and a plus-6 rating over 42 appearances. If he can keep up his recent success once the Kings are at full strength again, the 24-year-old is poised for a big second half.

Kings' Alex Turcotte: Picks up two points
Turcotte scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Turcotte is finding a groove in a third-line role, earning four points over his last three games. The 24-year-old also saw a season-high 17:22 of ice time Wednesday since the Kings were missing four of their regular forwards. Turcotte is now at three goals, seven helpers, 41 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, 17 hits and a minus-4 rating over 41 appearances this season.

Kings' Kevin Fiala: Two-point effort in overtime loss
Fiala scored a goal on four shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and doled out three hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Fiala's point streak is up to five games (three goals, four assists) after his latest strong performance. The winger led the Kings with 22:26 of ice time in this contest, which saw the team dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen due to the absences of Anze Kopitar (lower body), Joel Armia (upper body), Trevor Moore (upper body) and Corey Perry (personal). Fiala is up to 16 goals, 31 points, 121 shots on net, 23 hits, 24 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 42 appearances this season. He'll likely continue to see a boost in ice time as long as the Kings' forward group is short-staffed.

Kings' Darcy Kuemper: Can't hold off Sharks
Kuemper allowed four goals on 28 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Kuemper had a 3-2 lead to protect over the last 2:10 of regulation but couldn't get the job done. Macklin Celebrini tied the game with 1:07 left in the third period, and he set up William Eklund's overtime tally to send Kuemper to his second loss in four outings since returning from an upper-body injury. The 35-year-old netminder has allowed four goals in three of those games. He's at a 12-7-7 record with a 2.38 GAA and a .910 save percentage over 27 starts. The Kings are set for a two-game road trip next, visiting the Jets on Friday and the Oilers on Saturday. Kuemper's recent play makes him a risky fantasy option, but he's playable against the slumping Jets if he starts the first half of the back-to-back.

Kings' Darcy Kuemper: Tending twine Wednesday
Kuemper is expected to patrol the crease for Wednesday's home clash with San Jose, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.
Kuemper is 2-1-0 with a 3.26 GAA in three appearances since returning from an upper-body injury. With just 12 victories through his first 26 outings, the 35-year-old netminder could be in danger of missing the 30-win threshold after reaching that mark last year.

Kings' Joel Armia: Won't play Wednesday
Armia (upper body) will not be in the lineup versus the Sharks on Wednesday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Armia has been struggling offensively of late, generating one point in his last eight outings. Despite the recent slump, the veteran winger could still top the 30-point mark for the first time since 2019-20 when he was with the Habs, assuming his upper-body injury doesn't keep him sidelined too long.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Won't play Wednesday
Kopitar (lower body) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sharks, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Kopitar suffered a lower-body injury during Monday's game against the Wild. While he's considered day-to-day and isn't believed to be facing a long-term absence, he'll be forced to miss at least one game due to the issue. His next opportunity to suit up will be Friday in Winnipeg, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return for that matchup.

Kings' Trevor Moore: Remains out Wednesday
Moore (upper body) is set to miss Wednesday's game against San Jose, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Moore was previously listed as being out due to an illness and hasn't played since Dec. 29. He is considered day-to-day, so Moore might still be an option to return Friday in Winnipeg or Saturday in Edmonton. He has five goals and 13 points in 37 appearances this campaign.

Kings' Andre Lee: Receives call-up
Lee was recalled from AHL Ontario on Wednesday.
Lee and Taylor Ward received call-ups on an emergency basis from the Kings, while Corey Perry (personal) moved to the non-roster list. Lee is in the midst of his best offensive campaign in the AHL with 15 goals, 27 points, 60 shots on net and a 25.0 shooting percentage across 32 games this season. The 25-year-old forward will join a Kings team that has struggled with consistency since the start of December, posting a 6-8-2 record. He will probably be in the lineup for Wednesday's game against San Jose.

Kings' Corey Perry: On non-roster list
Perry has been given non-roster status, the team announced Wednesday.
Perry is expected to miss Wednesday's game against San Jose. The Kings recalled forwards Andre Lee and Taylor Ward in corresponding moves. In addition to Perry being out, Anze Kopitar (lower body), Joel Armia (upper body) and Trevor Moore (illness) are all questionable for Wednesday's game, which could lead to Lee and Ward both being in the lineup.

Kings' Taylor Ward: Called up by Los Angeles
Ward was recalled from AHL Ontario on Wednesday.
Ward has excelled with Ontario this season, recording 12 goals and 21 points through 32 games. He's also shooting at a career-high clip of 15.8 percent, and he was on pace to shatter his career-best mark for shots on goal in the AHL. He'll join a Kings offense that is averaging 2.66 goals per game this season, which ranks 28th in the league. Once he makes his season debut, he'll look to provide an offensive spark, like he did with the Kings last April when he scored a goal in his NHL debut.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Not expected to be out long term
Kopitar (lower body) is day-to-day, per Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period on Tuesday.
Kopitar sustained his lower-body injury Monday against the Wild and was ruled out by the team during the middle frame. The Kings play Wednesday at home versus San Jose, and the team will likely not rush Kopitar back into the lineup if he's anything less than 100 percent healthy, given that he's 38 years old. The Kings are already thin up the middle, so a center may be recalled from AHL Ontario if Kopitar is unable to suit up Wednesday.

Kings' Joel Armia: Deemed day-to-day
Armia (upper body) is day-to-day, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Tuesday.
Armia left Monday's 4-2 win over Minnesota midway through the second period and didn't return. An update on his status should come before Wednesday's matchup against San Jose. Armia has produced nine goals, 16 points, 51 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and 38 hits across 41 appearances this season.

Kings' Brian Dumoulin: Registers pair of helpers
Dumoulin notched two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
Dumoulin has a pair of two-assist games over his last five outings. Prior to that, he went 11 contests without a point. The 34-year-old defenseman has limited scoring potential, especially in a bottom-four role. He's up to 10 helpers, 41 shots on net, 57 blocked shots, 21 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 41 appearances this season, giving him a chance to reach the 20-point mark for the third time in four years.

Kings' Warren Foegele: Tickles twine Monday
Foegele scored a goal on five shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
Foegele ended a 12-game point drought with the opening tally at 15:34 of the second period. Despite the lack of production, he's remained in a middle-six role. The 29-year-old winger is now at six goals, one assist, 54 shots on net, 38 hits and a minus-1 rating through 33 appearances this season, well off the pace that saw him top 40 points in each of the last two regular seasons.
