Fiala (lower body) will miss Saturday's game against Nashville, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fiala is considered day-to-day, so he might still be an option for Tuesday's contest versus the Islanders. He has 22 goals and 68 points in 66 outings this season. With Fiala unavailable Saturday, Carl Grundstrom might draw back into the lineup after being a healthy scratch Thursday.

Fiala didn't play after assisting on the Kings' fourth goal at 4:39 of the third period in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports Fiala initially left the game in the second period after a knee-on-knee collision with Andrew Cogliano. Fiala was able to return, but it's unclear if head coach Todd McLellan was being cautious with the winger in the final frame. An update on Fiala's status should be available prior to Saturday's home game versus the Predators. The winger has been a key part of the Kings' offense with 68 points through 66 outings, including a goal and four helpers over his last five games.

Fiala's six-game goal drought came to an end with the empty-netter. The winger also set up Gabriel Vilardi a minute earlier for the go-ahead tally.

Fiala scored an empty-net goal on five shots, added two assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
This was Fiala's fourth multi-point effort in the last eight games, a span in which he has three goals and eight assists, including three power-play helpers. The 26-year-old winger hasn't slowed down following his All-Star Game appearance. He's up to 19 tallies, 39 helpers, 173 shots on net, 40 hits, 42 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 56 appearances.

Fiala recorded a pair of assists, five shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
One of Fiala's helpers came on the power play. The winger has two goals and six assists over his last six games, a span in which he's been held off the scoresheet only once. The 26-year-old is up to 18 tallies, 37 assists, 168 shots on goal, 40 hits, 40 PIM and a minus-2 rating. He's seeing third-line usage at even strength, but a role on the top power-play unit should provide a high floor for his scoring potential.

Fiala scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime victory over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
After a wild scramble in the LA zone, Fiala collected the loose puck, skated the length of the ice and used Drew Doughty as a decoy to snap a shot past Carter Hart just over a minute into OT. Fiala has been on fire in January, posting multi-point efforts in five of 10 games on the month en route to a blistering seven goals and 14 points, and Tuesday's power-play point was his 18th on the season, tying the career high he set with the Wild in 2019-20.
