Nets goal Thursday Armia scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Senators.

Impact Armia ended a 10-game goal drought with the tally. The 33-year-old winger is occupying a bottom-six role this season for the Kings, and he has seen almost no power-play time aside from Opening Night. Armia has two goals, two assists, 18 shots on net, 23 hits, 11 blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-3 rating over 12 appearances. Aside from the deepest of formats, he's not productive enough to help in fantasy.

Tallies shortie in loss Armia scored a shorthanded goal on two shots in Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Armia is a strong contributor in shorthanded situations, having scored at least one shortie in every campaign since 2016-17. He wasted no time extending that streak this year with his tally in the season-opening loss. Armia is penciled in for fourth-line minutes this year, though he could move up to the third line if the Kings have too many absences at once. Armia has logged at least 25 points in three straight campaigns, so he may carry some appeal in deep fantasy formats.

Impact Armia has scored three goals and added an assist over his last four games. The 32-year-old winger continues to fill a third-line spot, and he's doing well to provide a little grit and some depth scoring. He's now at 13 goals, 25 points, 86 shots on net, 71 hits, 36 blocked shots, 30 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 63 outings this season. Armia has posted at least 25 points in three straight seasons after missing the 20-point mark in the three years before that.

Impact Armia missed 10 games due to an upper-body injury just after the Olympic break, and he's been back in action for three contests. The 32-year-old winger is filling a bottom-six role, so his offense is likely to remain limited. He has 21 points, 68 shots on net, 59 hits, 32 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 56 appearances.

Available for Saturday Armia (upper body) will be activated off injured reserve and play Saturday versus Buffalo, per Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period.

Impact Armia hasn't been in the lineup since Feb. 26. He has 10 goals and 20 points in 53 outings in 2025-26. Armia will probably serve in a middle-six capacity, and his return might lead to Taylor Ward being a healthy scratch Saturday.

Might return Saturday Armia (upper body) won't be in action versus the Flyers on Thursday but could return for Saturday's clash with Buffalo, Alexander Legget of Mayors Manor reports.

Impact Armia will be shelved for his 10th straight game due to his lingering upper-body problem. Prior to his absence, the veteran forward was struggling to produce and was stuck in an 11-game goal drought during which he generated just two assists. Once given the all-clear, Armia should slot into a bottom-six role but could factor on the power play.
