Draws start Thursday Copley will guard home goal versus the Penguins on Thursday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact This will be the first time the Kings have not stuck with a winning goalie for the next game, though it's fair to say Cam Talbot earned some rest after defeating Vegas on Wednesday. Copley's last action came Oct. 27 versus the Coyotes when he allowed three goals on six shots in a short start. The 31-year-old will face a Penguins team that has won three of its last five games.

Quick hook Friday Copley stopped three of six shots in Friday's 5-4 win over the Coyotes.

Impact While the Kings ultimately rallied for a win, Copley's poor effort at the start put them in an early hole. He lasted just 8:21 into the game before ceding the crease to Cam Talbot, who gave up a goal within his first minute in the game. With 11 goals allowed on 52 shots through three outings, Copley's not doing himself any favors for earning more playing time. He could be at risk of losing the backup job altogether if the Kings opt to call up David Rittich at any point.

Slated to start against Yotes Copley is expected to get the starting nod in Friday's road matchup with Arizona, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact Copley will make consecutive starts for the first time this season after Cam Talbot played in four of the club's six contests. While Talbot has gotten the bulk of the workload, Copley could take a bigger share of the netminding duties if he can put together a handful of strong performances.

Allows three goals in win Copley stopped 24 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Copley was steady enough to get the win, with plenty of help from the Kings' offense. The 31-year-old netminder is now 1-0-1 on the year with eight goals allowed on 46 shots. While it wasn't a dominant start, the Kings have so far allowed a winning goalie to start the next game. If that holds true, Copley would get a rematch with the Coyotes in Arizona on Friday.

Tending twine Tuesday Copley will patrol the home crease Tuesday against Arizona, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Copley will make his second start of the season after allowing five goals on 19 shots in a 6-5 shootout loss to Carolina on Oct. 14. Cam Talbot played in the past three games for the Kings, going 2-1-0 with a .905 save percentage over that span.

Ugly showing in shootout loss Copley surrendered five goals on 19 shots in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Copley didn't perform very well from the start, yielding three goals in the first period. In the shootout, he allowed three goals on nine attempts. The 31-year-old was a stabilizing force for the Kings' goaltending last year, but this was a brutal first impression in 2023-24, though Cam Talbot wasn't much better in Wednesday's season opener. Both goalies will likely split starts in the early going, and that could last all season if one doesn't pull ahead of the other.

Facing Hurricanes Copley will patrol the home crease Saturday against Carolina, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

Impact Copley will play in the Kings' second game of the 2023-24 campaign after Cam Talbot was between the pipes for Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Colorado. The 31-year-old Copley posted a mark of 24-6-3 last season with one shutout, a 2.64 GAA and a .903 save percentage in 37 appearances. He is expected to share starts with Cam Talbot during the 2023-24 campaign.

OCTOBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes relief appearance Copley stopped six of eight shots in relief of Joonas Korpisalo in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

Impact The Oilers eased up a bit after Copley got into the game, and the 31-year-old netminder still didn't put in a great effort. This was his first game action since April 8, and he's failed to record a win in his last four appearances. The Kings' season will be on the line in Game 6 on Saturday, but it seems likely Korpisalo will get the nod in that one.

Malgin helps Avalanche keep rolling in 4-3 win over Kings

Denis Malgin scored twice and the Colorado Avalanche beat the Los Angeles Kings 4-3 on Saturday night for their fourth straight victory

APRIL 9, 2023 • Associated Press

Surrenders four goals Copley stopped 19 of 23 shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Copley is starting to skid a bit, losing his last two starts. He's stopped 71 of 77 shots over his last three appearances. For the season, the 31-year-old netminder is at 24-6-3 with a 2.64 GAA and a .903 save percentage through 37 outings. The Kings' last two games are favorable matchups -- they host the Canucks on Monday and visit the Ducks on Thursday -- so both Copley and Joonas Korpisalo should have a chance to get on track prior to the playoffs.

Facing Avalanche Per Eric Stephens of The Athletic, Copley was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, putting him on track to patrol the home crease versus Colorado on Saturday.

Impact Copley played well in his last start Tuesday against the Oilers, turning aside 30 of 32 shots, but he still came away with a loss due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. He'll attempt to secure his 25th win of the season in a tough home matchup with a surging Avalanche team that's won six of its last seven games.

APRIL 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Strong in relief appearance Copley stopped all 22 shots he faced in relief of Joonas Korpisalo in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact The damage was already done by the time Copley entered the game early in the second period. The 31-year-old has allowed more than two goals only once in nine appearances since the start of March. For the season, he's at 24-5-3 with a 2.60 GAA and a .905 save percentage through 36 games. Copley should be considered likely to start Saturday versus the Avalanche.

Set to face Oilers Copley was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports, indicating he will start Tuesday's home game against Edmonton.

Impact Copley has won his past four outings, including a 25-save performance in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Seattle. He has a 24-4-3 record this season with a 2.67 GAA and a .901 save percentage. Copley made 28 stops in a 6-3 win over Edmonton on Jan. 9. The Oilers rank first in the league this campaign with 3.97 goals per game.

APRIL 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Win streak snapped Copley gave up two goals on 32 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers. The third goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Copley entered Tuesday having won his last four outings. He wasn't tested much early on, but he couldn't keep pace as the Oilers' power play took over in the second half of the game. Copley slipped to 24-5-3 with a 2.65 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 35 games this season. While he played well, it wouldn't be surprising to see Joonas Korpisalo get the start Thursday in Vegas.

Hangs on against St. Louis Copley allowed six goals on 22 shots in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Blues.

Impact Copley wasn't at his best Sunday, stopping only 16 of 22 shots, but it was enough to earn a win as the Kings' offense exploded for seven goals. Copley has won six of his last seven starts, despite a .891 save percentage in that span. The 31-year-old netminder should continue to alternate starts with Joonas Korpisalo down the stretch. Copley is now 23-4-3 with an .899 save percentage on the season.

Set to face Blues Copley was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports, indicating he will start Sunday's home matchup with St. Louis.

Impact Copley has won his past two outings, including a 16-save performance against Calgary on Monday. He has a 22-4-3 record this season with a 2.61 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 32 appearances. The Blues sit 18th in the league this campaign with 3.15 goals per game.
