David Rittich - Starting vs. New York Rittich will guard the home net Saturday against the Rangers, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Impact Rittich will make a second straight start after he allowed two goals on 33 shots in a loss to Nashville on Thursday. The 31-year-old netminder is 3-1-1 with a .934 save percentage and 1.69 GAA this season, as he appears lined up for more playing time with Cam Talbot struggling of late. Rittich will face a Rangers team that's averaging 3.25 goals per game.

David Rittich - Falls to Nashville Rittich allowed two goals on 33 shots in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Predators.
Impact Rittich was solid for the most part Thursday, holding Nashville to a pair of goals in the second period, but the Kings could only muster a single tally against Juuse Saros in the 2-1 defeat. Despite the loss, Rittich has looked good in his last two outings, allowing just four goals on 55 shots. The 31-year-old netminder could see more work in the short term, with Cam Talbot struggling of late. Overall, Rittich is 3-1-1 with an impressive .934 save percentage and 1.69 GAA through six appearances this season.

Blake Lizotte - On injured reserve Lizotte (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
Impact Lizotte has five goals and nine points in 34 games this season. He was already projected to be out until after the All-Star break, per Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period on Tuesday, so putting him on IR doesn't alter his timetable. Jaret Anderson-Dolan might play more regularly during Lizotte's absence.

David Rittich - Facing Predators Rittich will guard the home goal against Nashville on Thursday, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports.
Impact Rittich was excellent in his last start Monday versus Carolina, stopping 30 of 32 shots en route to a 5-2 victory. The 31-year-old vet will try to secure his fourth win of the season in a home matchup with a Predators team that's averaging 3.25 goals per game on the road this year, ninth in the NHL.

Samuel Fagemo - On ice Thursday Fagemo took part in Thursday's optional game-day skate, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.
Impact Fagemo's presence doesn't guarantee he will be in the lineup to face the Predators on Thursday but his demotion to the minors Wednesday appears to have been a temporary move. In his four NHL games this season, Fagemo has recorded one goal on seven shots, one hit and three blocks while averaging 9:49 of ice time.

Viktor Arvidsson - Back on ice Arvidsson (back) skated before practice Thursday in a non-contact jersey, according to Russell Morgan of HockeyRoyalty.
Impact The Kings are hoping that Arvidsson is able to return by mid-February. The 30-year-old winger had a very good season in 2022-23, scoring 26 times while adding 33 assists in 77 games, playing as a top-six forward. He was expected to return to the same role this season, but he suffered a back injury in training camp and has yet to see any action this season. Upon his return, look for Arvidsson to eventually make his way back to the second line, alongside Phillip Danault.
