Edmundson provided an assist, three blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 3.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson had been limited to one assist over his previous 10 outings, a span that also saw him miss five games due to an upper-body injury. The defenseman is filling a de facto top-four role as a veteran blueliner for the Kings this postseason. He had 20 points in 73 regular-season outings, matching his career high, so he shouldn't be expected to add much on offense in the playoffs.

Edmundson (upper body) is slated to play Thursday against the Flames, according to Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson missed the Kings' previous five matchups. The 31-year-old believes he could have returned sooner, but he took some extra time off to get ready for the first round of the playoffs. Edmundson has six goals, 20 points, 97 hits and 107 blocks in 72 regular-season outings. He'll likely serve in a top-four capacity in his return.

Edmundson (upper body) didn't join the Kings for their two-game road trip, Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period reports Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson will have one more opportunity to suit up before the postseason when the Kings face the Flames at home Thursday. Despite playing in just 72 games this year, the 31-year-old defenseman has already reached the 20-point threshold for the first time since 2019-20 when he was with Carolina. Jacob Moverare should continue to see plenty of ice time in Edmundson's absence -- especially if Drew Doughty (ankle) remains unavailable.

Edmundson (upper body) won't be in the lineup against Colorado on Saturday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson will miss his third straight game. The Kings play three more times before the end of the regular season, and it's unclear when the 31-year-old defender will play. He has six goals, 20 points, 90 shots on net, 107 blocked shots and 97 hits through 72 outings this season. Jacob Moverare will probably remain in the lineup until Edmundson or Drew Doughty (ankle) returns.

Edmundson (upper body) isn't expected to play Thursday versus Anaheim, per Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty.

EDGE Analysis

It will be Edmundson's second straight game on the shelf. He has six goals, 20 points, 97 hits and 107 blocks over 72 appearances with Los Angeles in 2024-25. Jacob Moverare, who is projected to play Thursday, might find himself as a healthy scratch once Edmundson is ready to return.

Edmundson is day-to-day with an upper-body injury and will not be an option for Monday's home game versus the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson logged 20:45 of ice time in Saturday's 3-0 win over Edmonton, right around his usual allotment of playing time, so it's unclear when he picked up the injury. Drew Doughty (ankle) also isn't suiting up Monday, so Jacob Moverare and Kyle Burroughs will draw back into the lineup and comprise Los Angeles' third pairing.

Edmundson notched an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson set up Trevor Moore's opening goal at 8:28 of the first period. This helper got Edmundson to the 20-point mark for the second time in his career, matching his personal-best output from the 2019-20 campaign. The 31-year-old defenseman has six goals, 14 assists, 89 shots on net, 103 blocked shots, 93 hits and a plus-25 rating through 70 contests as a fixture on the Kings' blue line in his first year with the team.

Edmundson notched two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson was a little late to the weekend's scoring party. The Kings won games over the Hurricanes and Bruins by matching 7-2 scores, and it took until 9:20 of the third period in Sunday's contest for Edmundson to get involved when he helped out on a Tanner Jeannot goal. The 31-year-old blueliner has chipped in five points over his last eight outings, and he also has a plus-9 rating in that span. For the season, the shutdown defenseman has displayed more offense than usual with 19 points over 65 appearances. He's added 84 shots on net, 100 blocks, 90 hits and a plus-25 rating.

Edmundson scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson has two goals and six points over his last 14 contests. While that's not a lot of offense overall, it's a better-than-usual pace for the 31-year-old shutdown defender. In his first year with the Kings, he's racked up six goals -- one off his career high -- and 17 points while adding 84 shots on net, 88 hits, 95 blocked shots and a plus-19 rating over 63 appearances. He's also averaging 20:38 of ice time, his highest in any season since 2017-18, though he's been trending down in that area since Drew Doughty has been back in action following a season-opening ankle injury.

Edmundson recorded two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Edmundson snapped a six-game point drought by setting up Anze Kopitar's first-period goal, and he added another assist on a Brandt Clarke tally before the end of the frame. While not primarily a big scorer, Edmundson has done well for himself this season with 16 points over 58 contests, which is his third-highest single-season output in his career. The defenseman has added 73 shots on net, 88 blocked shots, 86 hits and a plus-18 rating, and he's got a chance to get to the 20-point mark for the second time in 10 campaigns.
