Top Mikey Anderson News

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Snags apple in win

    Anderson logged an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.

    Anderson was limited to just a single assist over 11 contests in November, a mark he's already matched one game into December. The 24-year-old defenseman had a strong start to the campaign on offense, but his mainly defensive role meant that was unlikely to last, as evidenced by his rapid cool-down. He's at nine points, 26 shots on net, 36 hits, 39 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating through 21 outings. Anderson still has a good chance to top his career high of 20 points from last season.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Snaps slump with helper

    Anderson registered an assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Penguins.

    Anderson ended his four-game point drought when he set up an Adrian Kempe goal midway through the contest. His hot start to 2023-24 was always going to be unsustainable, but Anderson has clearly made some improvements to get involved with scoring plays more frequently. He's at one goal, seven helpers, 14 shots on net, 21 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 13 outings overall.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Pockets helper

    Anderson logged an assist, four blocked shots and two hits in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Golden Knights.

    Anderson's defensive reputation has often kept him out of the spotlight in fantasy, but he's now putting up offense too good to ignore. The 24-year-old has four points over his last three contests, giving him a goal and six helpers through eight outings overall. He's also maintained his heavy playing style with 17 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating in a top-pairing role. This scoring pace probably won't last, but Anderson's done enough in October to warrant keeping an eye on his production.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: One of each Friday

    Anderson scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Coyotes.

    Anderson continues to step up his game on offense -- he's gotten on the scoresheet in five of seven contests so far. He tallied in the first period and then helped out on Drew Doughty's game-winner in the third Friday. Anderson has a goal, five assists, seven shots on net, 15 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-4 rating to begin 2023-24. While it's likely unsustainable, his physical play makes him an option for fantasy managers looking for a short-term boost.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Grabs apple in win

    Anderson logged an assist, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

    Anderson has quietly produced strong offense early on with four helpers through six games. He helped out on a Trevor Moore tally in the first period of Tuesday's contest. Anderson hasn't lost his physical edge either, racking up 14 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM with a plus-3 rating this season. His top-pairing role guarantees he'll have plenty of ice time, but it's unusual for the 24-year-old to be this offensively productive with it.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Registers helper

    Anderson recorded an assist, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.

    Anderson helped out on Drew Doughty's first-period tally. Those two defensemen compose the Kings' top pairing, but Anderson's role remains that of a stay-at-home defender, as it has for years. In 2022-23, he produced a career-high 20 points with 162 hits and 129 blocked shots in 77 outings. The physicality gives Anderson some appeal in deeper formats, but his offense alone won't be very useful in fantasy.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Offers assist in loss

    Anderson notched an assist and three hits in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 2.

    Anderson went without a point in his last six games and also missed five contests with an undisclosed injury in that span. The defenseman had the secondary helper on Phillip Danault's tally in the second period. Anderson is a defensive presence first and foremost, though he sees big minutes alongside Drew Doughty on the top pairing. Anderson had 20 points, 90 shots on net, 162 hits, 129 blocked shots and a plus-20 rating in 77 regular-season outings this season.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Picks up two points in final frame

    Anderson scored a power-play goal on three shots, added an assist, logged three hits and blocked two shots in Monday's 8-2 win over the Flames.

    The power-play tally was Anderson's first point with the man advantage in his four-year NHL career. He's turned up the offense with three goals and two helpers over his last seven contests. For the season, the 23-year-old has 19 points, 83 shots on net, 150 hits, 125 blocked shots, 38 PIM and a plus-19 rating through 71 games in a top-pairing role.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Strikes early in shootout loss

    Anderson scored a goal, doled out two hits and blocked three shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Predators.

    Anderson opened the scoring at 9:32 of the first period with his second goal in his last three games. The 23-year-old is unlikely to become a massive scoring threat, but he sees plenty of minutes as the defensive half of a pairing with Drew Doughty. Anderson is up to four goals, 16 points, a plus-17 rating, 75 shots on net, 143 hits, 117 blocked shots and 36 PIM through 67 contests overall.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Lights lamp Monday

    Anderson scored a goal and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.

    Anderson has picked up two points and a plus-5 rating over 10 games since he signed an eight-year contract extension in mid-February. The defenseman continues to serve as a strong presence in his own zone, allowing Drew Doughty to roam about more. Anderson is up to three goals, 15 points, 73 shots on goal, 139 hits, 112 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating through 65 contests this season. His tally Monday was the game-winner, his fourth such goal in his career.

  • Kings' Mikey Anderson: Secures eight-year extension

    Anderson agreed to terms on an eight-year, $33 million contract extension with Los Angeles on Wednesday.

    Anderson was set to become a restricted free agent this offseason but instead has tied himself to the club through the 2030-31 campaign. The 23-year-old blueliner has tallied two goals and 11 assists in 55 games this season, so it certainly doesn't seem as though the club is signing him for his offensive contributions. Still, the Minnesota native can dish out plenty of hits and blocks and comes in at a manageable $4.125 million AAV.
