EDGE Analysis
Kempe fired four shots on goal and doled out three hits in 13:21 of ice time prior to exiting. The Kings' next game is Thursday versus the Ducks. Trevor Moore and Alex Laferriere could be candidates to jump up to the top line if Kempe is unavailable in the short term.

Kempe scored twice on five shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 8-1 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Kempe's first tally was a power-play goal to get him to the 30-goal mark this season, and it also stood as the game-winner. He added another goal, his 60th point of the campaign, late in the second period. The 28-year-old has reached 30 goals in three of the last four seasons as one of the Kings' most consistent scorers. He's added 213 shots on net, 84 hits, 32 PIM and a plus-16 rating over 73 appearances this season.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis
Kempe has two goals and an assist over his last four games. His tally Saturday opened the scoring 3:03 into the contest, setting the tone for the Kings' scoring explosion. The 28-year-old is up to 29 goals, surpassing his total from last year, though his overall production is down due to a lack of assists. He has 56 points, 200 shots on net, 79 hits and a plus-15 rating across 68 appearances, mainly in a top-line role.

Kempe logged an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 1-0 overtime win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Kempe had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two contests. He made his impact by setting up Quinton Byfield's goal at 3:20 of the extra session Saturday. For the season, Kempe is up to 54 points, 191 shots on net, 77 hits, 30 PIM and a plus-14 rating across 65 appearances. He remains in a top-line role and should return solid value for points, shots and hits.

Kempe scored a power-play goal on four shots and added an assist in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Kempe's tally ended up being the game-winner, and it ended a five-game stretch without a goal for the 28-year-old. He had two assists in that time and added a third on a Brandt Clarke goal Sunday. Kempe is up to 27 goals, 26 helpers, 184 shots on net, 74 hits and a plus-14 rating across 62 appearances this season.

Kempe logged an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Kempe made a subtle touch to jar the puck loose along the boards, and Quinton Byfield took care of the rest on the game-winning tally 27 seconds into overtime. The 28-year-old Kempe has been limited to two assists over his last five outings, but he remains on the top line. He had a new linemate, Andrei Kuzmenko, for Saturday's contest, giving the trio a bit more offense than Alex Turcotte did. Kempe is up to 51 points, 180 shots on net, 73 hits and a plus-13 rating over 61 appearances. A repeat of his 75-point regular season is unlikely, but Kempe still has enough time to return to the 30-goal mark for the third time in four years.
