With the L.A. Kings in a playoff push, how much can they rely on a rookie defenseman? Brandt Clarke seems headed toward a top-four role with the Kings, but is he ready for important games now?

Gets into lineup, scores Clarke scored a goal in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.

Impact The Kings opted to play seven defensemen Thursday, with Clarke stepping in for forward Arthur Kaliyev. While it's a positive Clarke played after sitting out two games as a healthy scratch, he saw a meager 7:06 of ice time in the blowout win, as interim head coach Jim Hiller didn't impact his regular defense pairings much. It's fair to say Clarke has earned more time with two goals, four assists, 29 shots on net and 20 blocked shots over 13 appearances this season, especially with all but one of those points coming in his last seven outings. If the Kings go back to six defensemen Sunday versus the Devils, it's unclear which one of Clarke, Jordan Spence, Andreas Englund or Jacob Moverare would come out of the lineup.

Sends power-play helper Clarke notched a power-play assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Clarke has four points over his last four games, including a pair of power-play helpers. He took a stretch pass from Cam Talbot and fed Pierre-Luc Dubois on the Kings' second tally Tuesday. Clarke has had a choppy path to playing time this season, but his recent play suggests he's leapfrogged Jordan Spence for a spot on the third pairing. Clarke is up to five points, 24 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 10 outings this season.

First career goal an OT winner Clarke score the overtime winner and added an assist in Saturday's 5-4 victory over the Bruins.

Impact The rookie blueliner was in the right place at the right time to score his first career NHL goal, stepping out of the penalty box and converting a breakaway on Linus Ullmark with just 27 seconds left in OT. Clarke is up to four points in eight games for the Kings this season as he's had trouble keeping a regular spot in the lineup when he's been up with the big club, but Saturday's performance could propel him into consistent ice time.

Impact Clarke played in consecutive games for the first time this season, and he also earned his first helper in five NHL appearances on the year. The 20-year-old will likely still need to compete with Jordan Spence for playing time, though Clarke has a more promising long-term outlook. Clarke is at one assist, a minus-4 rating, 12 shots on net and six blocked shots this season.

Expected to play Clarke (shoulder) is expected to suit up for Wednesday's preseason game versus the Golden Knights, Scott Coffman of Mayor's Manor reports.

Impact Clarke was held out of the Kings' Global Series games in Australia due to the injury, but he practiced while remaining in North America. The 20-year-old defenseman is set to make his preseason debut, beginning his quest for an Opening Night roster spot. Clarke will likely see a significant role throughout the rest of the preseason.

Injury not serious Clarke sustained a shoulder injury during a prospects game, but the injury is not believed to be serious, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact Clarke did not go with the majority of the Kings' regulars to Australia for their preseason exhibitions with the Coyotes. The 20-year-old defenseman should be able to get in some game time once the Kings return stateside, but this injury could be the difference between him making the roster out of camp and heading to AHL Ontario.

Not going to Australia Clarke (undisclosed) will not accompany the Kings to Australia, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

Impact Clarke suffered an undisclosed injury that will keep him out of action for 7-10 days without contact. The first-round pick, eight overall in 2021, is expected to challenge Jordan Spence for the bottom spot on the Kings defensive corps. Clarke had 23 goals and 61 points in only 31 games for OHL Barrie in 2022-23. Clarke will have plenty of fantasy value in the coming years but likely will need some time in the minors at some point this season.
