Impact The Kings dressed seven defensemen Monday, and both Spence and Jacob Moverare saw limited action. Spence was at least able to do something in his 8:43 of ice time, setting up Adrian Kempe's second-period tally. That snapped Spence's nine-game point drought. The 23-year-old blueliner is at 17 points (all assists) with 63 shots on net, 52 hits, 43 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 53 appearances.

Sent to minors Spence was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Wednesday, per Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty.

Impact Spence has 16 assists, 54 shots, 44 hits and 35 blocks in 44 contests this season. Although he's been a regular with the Kings for much of the season, Spence was a healthy scratch in LA's past four games, which might be what led to this move. It's also possible this is a paper transaction, and if that's the case, then the Kings would likely recall him before Thursday's game against Nashville.

Sends power-play assist Spence posted a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Oilers.

Impact Spence set up Pierre-Luc Dubois' opening tally at 2:38 of the second period. He wasn't an everyday player in January, but Spence managed three helpers over 10 contests last month while logging third-pairing minutes. He'll have to compete with Brandt Clarke for playing time in the near term, and if the Kings trade for a defenseman, both young blueliners could be out of the lineup. Spence has 16 helpers (three on the power play), 51 shots on net, 37 hits, 34 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 43 appearances.

Spence is at 12 helpers, 37 shots on net, 26 hits, 24 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 30 outings overall. Since he continues to see time on the second power-play unit, he could have some appeal in deep fantasy formats while his offense is warm.

Impact Spence set up an Alex Laferriere goal in the second period. The helper was Spence's first point over eight contests in December. The 22-year-old defenseman has been a steady presence on the third pairing, and he's added a little more responsibility with Vladislav Gavrikov (lower body) out of action. Spence has 10 helpers, 32 shots on net, 22 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through a career-high 27 appearances this season.

He's up to seven assists, 13 shots on net, 11 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 15 contests this season. Spence has enough offense in his game, especially with a spot on the second power-play unit, that he could be helpful in deeper fantasy formats.

The 22-year-old blueliner is up to six helpers, 10 shots on net, nine hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 12 contests. He should continue to see time on the third pairing -- Andreas Englund is more at risk of losing his place in the lineup to Tobias Bjornfot if head coach Todd McLellan voluntarily changes up his defense.

Called up from AHL Spence was recalled from the minors Thursday.

Impact Considering Spence has played in five of the Kings' six games this season, his promotion from AHL Ontario shouldn't come as a surprise. In those outings, the 22-year-old blueliner garnered one assist, four hits and three shots while averaging 14:16 of ice time. With Los Angeles hard up against the cap, fantasy players should expect Spence to continue moving between leagues frequently as a cap-saving measure.

Impact The helper was Spence's first point in five outings this season.

He's been solid in the non-scoring areas with seven blocked shots, four hits, three shots on net and a plus-1 rating, and his limited role suggests fantasy managers shouldn't expect a lot of offense.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
