King is expected to rejoin the Los Angeles lineup Tuesday against the Panthers, Jon Rosen of LAKingsInsider.com reports. King was a healthy scratch in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Ducks, marking the first game the forward has missed this season. He's only supplied two goals and five points in 17 games, but it doesn't appear he's in danger of surrendering a regular role just yet to Jordan Nolan or Andy Andreoff, the Kings' regular healthy scratches at forward. King is expected to play on the second line Tuesday, joining Jeff Carter and Tyler Toffoli.
