Supplies assist in loss Bernard-Docker recorded an assist in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Kings.

Impact Bernard-Docker spent most of November as a healthy scratch, but he's played in four of the last five games.

Still, Bernard-Docker is seeing limited ice time on the third pairing and next to nothing for power-play time. He has three assists, 12 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 11 hits and a plus-1 rating over 13 appearances this season.
