The Los Angeles Kings have assigned 14 players to the AHL’s Ontario Reign.
Those players are: Daniel Brickley, Aidan Dudas, Sean Durzi, Michael Eyssimont, Cole Hults, Samuel Fagemo, Rasmus Kupari, Boko Imama, Jacob Ingham, Tyler Madden, Jacob Moverare, Markus Phillips, Akil Thomas and Matt Villalta.
Martin Frk and Alex Turcotte have lower-body injuries. Both are unlikely to be ready to go for Thursday’s regular-season opener, per Todd McLellan.
Plus Quinton Byfield, Arthur Kaliyev and Tobias Bjornfot skated with the team.
Among the names assigned are Daniel Brickley and Boko Imama, who both cleared waivers yesterday. Of the players cut, however, there aren’t really any surprises, as none of the players listed were real contenders to make the team or taxi squad. It’s mostly a mix of young prospects who will need more time to develop, along with depth prospects.
