Muzzin netted his first goal of the season in a 4-1 win Tuesday night.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin now has a modest two-game point streak after not recording a point in the first seven games of the season.

Muzzin is ready for the Kings' Wednesday night season opener against the Sharks, Lisa Dillman of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

On Wednesday it was reported that Muzzin was doubtful for the Kings' season opener with an upper-body injury, so Thursday's news comes as a bit of a surprise. It's great news for Muzzin's owners, however, as they will no longer need to roll with a fill in for the top-pair defender to begin the season. The 26-year-old registered 41 points (10 goals, 31 assists) in 76 games with the Kings in 2014-15.

Muzzin is doubtful for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Sharks, Lisa Dillman of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin was able to return to practice Monday, but apparently is still feeling the effects of the upper-body injury he's been dealing with of late. If he's unable to take the ice for Wednesday's season opener, his next chance to return to game action will come Friday against the Coyotes.

Muzzin practiced Monday, Jon Rosen of La Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin has recently been dealing with an upper-body injury, but was always fully expected to be ready for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Sharks. The 26-year-old defender registered 41 points (10 goals, 31 assists) in 76 games with the Kings last season.

Muzzin (upper body) told reporters Thursday that he will be ready for the start of the season, Lisa Dillman of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin's availability for the Kings' Oct. 7 regular-season opener was never in serious doubt, but it's still reassuring to hear the same sentiment from the man himself. Muzzin probably won't suit up for L.A.'s preseason finale on Saturday, but will be ready to roll on Oct. 7 against the Sharks.

Muzzin (upper body) returned to the ice Tuesday, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin, who is currently dealing with an upper-body injury, skated with the healthy scratches ahead of L.A.'s Tuesday night exhibition. The ailment doesn't seem to be particularly serious, but the Kings may opt to hold the veteran defender out until their regular season opener on Oct. 7 as a precautionary measure.

Muzzin (upper body) is not on the ice Tuesday for the Kings' morning skate, Rich Hammond of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin is a regular in the NHL at this point, so it wouldn't make much sense to force him back too soon with the regular season drawing near. The 26-year-old blueliner registered 10 goals and 31 assists in 76 games for the Kings last season.

Muzzin is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin suffered the injury on Sunday after getting hit along the boards by Avalanche winger Blake Comeau, but the ailment isn't believed to be particularly serious. Muzzin may return to action for one of the Kings' final two preseason games, but if not, he shouldn't be in any danger of missing L.A.'s season opener on Oct. 7.

Muzzin suffered an injury to his upper body Sunday after getting hit along the boards by Avalanche winger Blake Comeau, reports Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider.

EDGE Analysis

Muzzin stayed in briefly after the hit in the first period, but didn't end up returning for the second frame. Specific details on the location and severity of the injury are unclear at this time, so he should be considered day-to-day until more information is disclosed.

Muzzin potted the team's lone goal in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Blackhawks. Muzzin has been on a nice little run of late as he's tallied four points in his last six games and 10 points in 15 March contests. The 26-year-old needs just a pair of points in the team's final six games to reach the 40-point plateau for the first time in his career, and should provide a decent option on the blue line in deeper formats.
