However, Doughty has been on a hot streak lately, posting a goal, four assists, six hits, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-6 rating over his last four appearances.

That's production in line with each of his last two campaigns.

Kings defenseman Drew Doughty out with lower-body injury, while Canucks' Quinn Hughes returns

Drew Doughty is day to day because of a lower-body injury that kept the defenseman out of the Los Angeles Kings’ game against the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday night

FEBRUARY 27, 2025 • Associated Press

Unavailable Wednesday Doughty (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Canucks, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports.

Impact Doughty's absence is unexpected -- he's played eight straight NHL games as well as suiting up for Canada during the 4 Nations Face-Off after overcoming an ankle injury. The defenseman has four points this season. It's unclear if the Kings will stick with seven defensemen in the lineup to cover for Doughty's absence.

Three points in win Doughty scored a goal, dished two assists, added two PIM, logged three hits, blocked four shots and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-3 win over Utah.

Impact Doughty did a bit of everything in his best game of the season, which also saw him play a season-low 21:40. The 35-year-old is no stranger to heavy workloads, but the Kings may get more out of him with fewer minutes, especially since the team is deep on defense and finally fully healthy at that position following the return of Mikey Anderson (finger). Doughty is up to four points, 12 shots on net, 10 hits, 13 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-2 rating across seven NHL appearances, and he also played with Team Canada during the 4 Nations Face-Off, so he should be back in a regular rhythm.
