Lemieux left Friday's win over the Blue Jackets in the first period with a lower-body injury and didn't return, Russell Morgan of the Hockey Royalty podcast reports.
EDGE Analysis
There's been no word yet from the Kings on the severity of the injury, or how much additional time he might miss. Lemieux is a valuable physical presence in the bottom six with 86 PIM and 108 hits through 44 games, but the 25-year-old has only eight goals and 11 points on the season.

Lemieux scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Lemieux struck with 29 seconds left in the second period, and that made the deficit too much for the Islanders to bounce back from. The 25-year-old winger has a goal and two helpers in his last six outings. Lemieux is at 11 points, 79 PIM, 102 hits, 58 shots on net and a plus-5 rating in 41 games as a physical force on the Kings' fourth line.

Lemieux logged an assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Lemieux has collected two assists in his last four games after going 13 contests without a point throughout much of January. The 25-year-old winger is still more of a physical presence than a scorer. He's at 10 points, 96 hits, 79 PIM, 54 shots on net and a plus-4 rating in 39 contests while mostly serving on the fourth line.

Lemieux notched an assist and five hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Lemieux set up Arthur Kaliyev's first-period marker. The assist snapped Lemieux's 13-game point drought, during which he went minus-2 with 34 PIM, 24 hits and 19 shots on goal. The 25-year-old winger remains a low-scoring, physical presence on the fourth line with nine points, 88 hits, 77 PIM, 51 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 36 contests.

Lemieux scored a goal on two shots and added four PIM in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Lemieux's second-period tally stood as the game-winner Saturday's. He's scored in each of the last two games. The Colorado native is up to seven tallies, one assist, 59 hits, 43 PIM and a plus-7 rating in 22 outings. He'll continue to fill a bottom-six role for the Kings, so his recent uptick in offense isn't likely to last long.
