Quinton Byfield - Bags apple in win Byfield notched an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Byfield was back on the third line Wednesday, trading places with Alex Turcotte, who moved up alongside Anze Kopitar and Adrian Kempe on the top line. Over the last three games, Byfield has two assists, and he's at five helpers without a goal through 11 outings overall. The 22-year-old has added 20 shots on net, eight hits, four PIM and a minus-1 rating in a lukewarm start to 2024-25.

Mikey Anderson - Dishes two assists in win Anderson notched two assists, two hits, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Anderson ended a four-game point drought with his second multi-point effort of the year. He helped out on goals by Adrian Kempe and Alex Laferriere as the Kings dominated the scoring early. Anderson has six points, 15 shots on net, 18 hits, 12 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating through 11 contests. He's been fine without usual defense partner Drew Doughty (ankle) in the lineup -- Anderson has most often been paired with Vladislav Gavrikov in recent games.

Brandt Clarke - Distributes three more helpers Clarke produced three assists and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact One of Clarke's helpers came on the power play. The 21-year-old is attempting to launch himself to star status quickly -- he has earned a goal and six helpers during his four-game point streak. Overall, he's at one goal, 10 assists, 21 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 11 contests. He's tied with Josh Morrissey for fourth in points by defensemen this season, trailing only Cale Makar (19), Neal Pionk (12) and Alex Pietrangelo (12).

Joel Edmundson - Nets goal in win Edmundson scored a goal, added four PIM and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Edmundson stretched the Kings' lead to 6-1 in the third period. The defenseman has tallied three times over the last three games, matching his highest total in goals in the last four years. He's looked comfortable in a top-four role so far, earning five points, 14 shots on net, 15 hits, 16 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-2 rating. Edmundson has reached the 20-point mark just once in his first nine NHL campaigns, so his scoring pace is likely to slow down, though he should still offer plenty of production in the physical categories.

Warren Foegele - Cashes in on blunder Foegele scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Ilya Samsonov tried to play a missed pass to the corner, but it landed on Foegele's stick, and the winger made no mistake to put it away for the opening goal. He's up to four goals and one assist over his last five games, accounting for all of his offense this season. Foegele has added 28 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-6 rating through 11 appearances. He's a deep-league option in fantasy since he's firmly on the third line but doesn't see consistent power-play time.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Laferriere - Scores again Wednesday Laferriere scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Laferriere has goals in back-to-back contests and is up to six tallies and nine points through 11 games overall. The 23-year-old winger put the Kings ahead 3-0 midway through the second period Wednesday. Laferriere has added 26 shots on net, 21 hits and a plus-9 rating while mainly playing in a middle-six role this season.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Fiala - Responds well after discipline Fiala scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Fiala had drawn head coach Jim Hiller's ire twice recently -- he took reckless penalties Saturday before missing a team meeting Tuesday that led to him being scratched. As usual, that one game off was all it took, and Fiala played a key role in the Kings' comprehensive win over Vegas. The 28-year-old has five goals, three assists, 29 shots on net, eight hits, 12 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 10 appearances. He's not particularly good defensively, but Fiala should be a lock for a middle-six role as long as he can avoid penalties.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Adrian Kempe - One of each in win Kempe scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two PIM, logged two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Kempe did a little bit of everything in the win. This was his second multi-point effort in the last three games, and his tally was his first since Oct. 20. The 28-year-old winger is up to four goals, 10 points, 25 shots on net, 14 hits, six PIM and a plus-4 rating through 11 outings while playing in his usual top-line role alongside Anze Kopitar. Kempe has been one of the Kings' top all-around forwards over the last two seasons, and that's holding true in 2024-25.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Anze Kopitar - Reaches 800-assist mark in career Kopitar scored a goal, added two assists and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Kopitar's second helper gave him 800 assists in his career. This was the 37-year-old's third three-point game of the campaign, and his first since Oct. 14. Kopitar is still productive on the Kings' top line with four goals, eight helpers, 11 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 11 appearances, and five of his 12 points have come on the power play.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Darcy Kuemper - Defeats Vegas Kuemper stopped 23 of 26 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Impact Kuemper was able to extend the Golden Knights' road woes, sending them to their fourth straight road loss (0-3-1) of the year. The 34-year-old netminder has allowed five goals on 52 shots over two starts since he returned from a lower-body injury. Kuemper still looks set to be eased into the No. 1 job again -- the Kings play at home Saturday versus the Blackhawks before a road back-to-back in Nashville on Monday and Minnesota on Tuesday. Kuemper is 3-0-2 with a 3.16 GAA and an .895 save percentage through five starts this season.

Kevin Fiala - Set to return versus Vegas Fiala (coach's decision) is slated to return to the lineup against the Golden Knights on Wednesday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Impact It's been a rough few games for Fiala, as he was held to just 10:12 of ice time versus Utah on Saturday after being benched and then missed a team meeting that saw him effectively suspended against the Sharks on Tuesday. Still, the 28-year-old winger has been producing solid offensive numbers to start the year, racking up four goals and two assists in nine games, including four power-play points. Fiala figures to replace Andre Lee in the lineup and could see time with the man advantage.
