Mats Zuccarello - Three points against Ducks on Saturday Zuccarello scored a power-play goal and added two even-strength assists in Saturday's 6-2 preseason win over Anaheim.

Impact The 39-year-old winger joined the Kings on a one-year contract this summer, and Zuccarello showed the minor shoulder issue that was dealing with during training camp won't be an issue when the games start to count. He seems ticketed for a top-six role, giving Zuccarello a good chance of producing a sixth straight 50-point campaign.

Alex Turcotte - Three-point effort in preseason win Turcotte scored two even-strength goals and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-2 preseason win over the Ducks.

Impact All three points came in the third period as the Kings pulled away. Turcotte could be headed for a top-six role this season following the retirement of Anze Kopitar, but the 25-year-old center has yet to produce big numbers in the NHL, and he managed just three goals and 14 points in 62 regular-season games in 2025-26.

Drew Doughty - Three helpers in preseason finale Doughty picked up three assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-2 preseason win over the Ducks.

Impact The 36-year-old blueliner had a hand in an Adrian Kempe tally in the first period and goals by Alex Turcotte and Erik Haula in the third. Doughty isn't the offensive force he once was and managed just one point in 2025-26 on the man advantage while ceding power-play time to Brandt Clarke last season, but he may still has something left in the tank in a more sheltered role.

Rian Chudzinski - Three points for Moncton Chudzinski scored twice and added an assist in QMJHL Moncton's 4-3 overtime win over Charlottetown on Saturday.

Impact Chudzinski has multiple points in three of four contests for the Wildcats this season, totaling four goals, three assists and 16 shots on net so far. The 2026 third-round pick of the Ducks is off to a strong start in his second year of junior hockey. Chudzinski is expected to make the jump to the NCAA with Boston University in 2027-28.

Darcy Kuemper - Not busy in preseason win Kuemper stopped 17 shots in Saturday's 6-2 preseason win over the Ducks.

Impact Anaheim took a 2-1 lead late in the first period on a Bennett Sennecke power-play tally, but Kuemper shut the door from there as Los Angeles took control. The 36-year-old netminder is coming off a disappointing campaign, going 19-14-15 in 50 appearances with a 2.78 GAA and .891 save percentage, and Kuemper could cede more work to backup Anton Forsberg this season if he can't regain his prior form.

Beckett Sennecke - Wraps up productive preseason Sennecke scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 6-2 preseason loss to the Kings.

Impact The 20-year-old winger gave the Ducks a 2-1 lead late in the first period, snapping a shot past Darcy Kuemper from down low, but the Ducks offense stalled out after that. It was Sennecke's fourth goal in four preseason contests, giving him plenty of momentum heading into his second NHL campaign. Sennecke is coming off an impressive rookie season in which he racked up 23 goals and 60 points in 82 regular-season contests, before adding four goals and an assist in six playoff games.

Lukas Dostal - Struggles in preseason finale Dostal made 14 saves in Saturday's 6-2 preseason loss to the Kings.

Impact The Ducks actually held a 2-1 lead late in the first period, but Los Angeles scored five straight goals against Dostal to end the preseason on a sour note for the netminder. Dostal recorded a career-high 30 wins in 2025-26, and he remains the clear No. 1 in the crease for an Anaheim team looking to take another step forward this season.
