Kings vs. Golden Knights Prediction, Odds, Picks - Feb. 25

Jared Wright - Tallies twice Sunday Wright scored two goals in AHL Ontario's 5-3 win over Tucson on Sunday.

Impact Wright has earned three goals and four assists over nine outings in February. He's at 27 points and a plus-23 rating over 52 appearances in his AHL rookie year. The 23-year-old forward will likely have to wait for his first NHL call-up, but he's settling in well for Ontario.

Andre Lee - Earns three points in AHL win Lee scored twice and added an assist in AHL Ontario's 5-3 win over Tucson on Sunday.

Impact Lee has four points over his last two games, though he was scoreless over the five outings before that. He crossed the 20-goal mark for the season with this performance. He's at 21 goals, 36 points and a plus-7 rating over 45 appearances for Ontario and has added two points in seven NHL contests.

Hampton Slukynsky - Rings up fourth shutout Slukynsky posted a 28-save shutout in Western Michigan University's 2-0 win over Colorado College on Saturday.

Impact This was Slukynsky's fourth shutout of the season. He improved to 23-8-1 with a 2.25 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 32 appearances this season as a workhorse for WMU. The Kings prospect has been reliable and consistent throughout 2025-26 as he looks to help the Broncos defend their NCAA title from last year.

Joel Armia - Three points in bronze medal game Armia scored a goal, recorded two assists, and put four shots on net during Finland's 6-1 win over Slovakia in the Olympic bronze medal game Saturday.

Impact Armia helped pave Finland's path to the Olympic bronze medal with two primary assists sandwiching his empty-net goal with just under five minutes remaining in the contest. With the trio of points, the 32-year-old forward finished the Olympics with three goals, five assists and a plus-seven rating across six appearances. With eight points, he is currently tied for fourth in the tournament with Slovakia's Juraj Slafkovsky and Czechia's Martin Necas. Armia will not only return to Los Angeles with Olympic hardware, but also with a case to play alongside the newly-acquired Artemi Panarin with Kevin Fiala (leg) out for the season.

Erik Portillo - Sent back down Portillo was loaned to AHL Ontario on Friday.

Impact Portillo was called up by Los Angeles on Thursday, but he'll head back to the minors a day later. He'll presumably be available for Ontario's weekend series against Tucson and will likely stay with the Reign once the NHL season resumes.

Kirill Kirsanov - Sent down Friday Kirsanov was loaned to AHL Ontario on Friday.

Impact Kirsanov will head back to the minors a day after being called up by the Kings, and he'll presumably be available for Ontario's weekend series against Tucson. It wouldn't be surprising to see Kirsanov remain with the Reign once the NHL season resumes.

Erik Portillo - Called up from AHL Portillo was summoned from AHL Ontario on Thursday.

Impact The Kings need two goaltenders at practice and with Darcy Kuemper with Team Canada at the Winter Olympics, the Kings recalled Portillo to participate in practice with Anton Forsberg. Portillo has starred with the AHL Reign this season, posting a 13-3-1 mark with a 2.45 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 19 appearances.

Kirill Kirsanov - Called up Thursday Kirsanov was recalled from AHL Ontario on Thursday.

Impact Kirsanov hasn't yet made his NHL debut, but he'll join the Kings for practice during the final week of the Olympic break. Across 47 appearances with the Reign this year, he's recorded four goals, seven assists, six PIM and a plus-8 rating. It wouldn't be surprising to see him return to the minors before the Kings resume play against Vegas on Wednesday.

Pheonix Copley - Sent back to AHL Copley was loaned to AHL Ontario on Wednesday.

Impact Copley was recalled by the Kings earlier in the day and had an opportunity to practice with the NHL club, but his move back to the minors will allow him to continue appearing in games for the Reign. Over 24 appearances with Ontario this year, Copley has gone 13-11-0 with a 2.95 GAA and .890 save percentage.

Mikey Anderson - Slated to play after Olympic break Anderson (upper body) should be available once the Olympic break is over, Anthony Collazo reports Wednesday.

Impact The Kings will resume their schedule next Wednesday against Vegas. While it looks like Anderson will draw back into the lineup for that game, he needs to be activated off injured reserve before that can happen. The 26-year-old has two goals, nine points, 14 PIM, 59 hits and 77 blocks in 54 appearances this season. Jacob Moverare will probably be a healthy scratch versus the Golden Knights if Anderson is back in the lineup.

Kings actively shopping for Kevin Fiala's replacement at the Olympics Roster freeze or not, Los Angeles is exploring moves to fill the void left by Fiala’s season-ending injury.

5 DAYS AGO • HOCKEYFEED.COM

Kevin Fiala - On injured reserve Fiala (lower leg fracture) was put on injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Fiala is expected to miss the remainder of the Kings' regular season after sustaining the injury while playing for Switzerland during the 2026 Winter Olympics. He has 18 goals and 40 points in 56 outings with the Kings in 2025-26. Fiala might still be an option for the playoffs, but in the meantime, placing him on IR frees a roster spot for LA.

Pheonix Copley - Recalled by Los Angeles Copley was recalled from AHL Ontario on Wednesday.

Impact Copley was sent to the minors at the end of December, but he'll have an opportunity to practice with the Kings during the final week of the Olympic break. It seems likely that Copley will head back to the AHL once Darcy Kuemper rejoins Los Angeles after the Olympics.

Vojtech Cihar - Nets two goals for Kelowna Cihar scored twice on eight shots in WHL Kelowna's 7-2 win over Tri-City on Monday.

Impact Cihar has scored five goals over his last four games. He's on a five-game point streak, his longest so far in the WHL. The Kings prospect is at a total of 15 points, 43 shots on net and a plus-3 rating for the Rockets since joining the team after the World Junior Championship.

Jan Chovan - Hat trick, assist in OHL win Chovan scored three goals and added an assist in OHL Sudbury's 6-2 win over Niagara on Monday.

Impact Chovan is rolling with eight points over his last five games. For the season, the Kings prospect is at 20 goals, 21 helpers, 128 shots on net and a minus-26 rating in his first OHL campaign. A sixth-round pick in 2025, Chovan has made a good first impression in North America after putting up decent numbers in the Finnish junior system.

Aatu Jamsen - Nets two goals in AHL loss Jamsen scored two goals in AHL Ontario's 5-3 loss to Abbotsford on Monday.

Impact Jamsen has looked pretty good lately with six goals and one assist over his last nine outings. The forward is up to 21 points, 51 shots on net and 22 PIM through 46 appearances. He's in his second campaign with Ontario after signing his entry-level deal in May of 2024.

Kevin Fiala - Not ruled out for postseason Fiala (lower leg fracture) will be reevaluated at the end of the regular season, the Kings announced Sunday.

Impact Fiala has not yet been ruled out of the playoffs, though the Kings are in a precarious position, sitting three points out of a playoff spot at the Olympic break. Fiala sustained a lower-leg fracture Friday in Switzerland's Olympic group-stage game versus Canada, and the injury required surgery. Expect the Kings to place Fiala on long-term injured reserve eventually to free up some cap space. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues can cut Fiala at this point since he won't be back before mid-April at the earliest.
