Versteeg finished Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Flames with a goal on two shots and a plus-1 rating.

EDGE Analysis

It's been two games since Versteeg returned from a six-game absence to nurse a foot injury, and he has now gotten himself back onto the scoresheet. Overall, it had been four games since he tallied any points whatsoever. He's now got 37 points on the season, which is his highest total since the 2011-12 campaign.

Versteeg (foot) will return to the lineup Saturday afternoon against the Stars, Lisa Dillman of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Despite missing the past six games, Versteeg must be close to 100-percent healthy since the Kings have already clinched a playoff berth and wouldn't have a reason to rush him back. A streaky offensive producer, Versteeg has compiled 13 goals and 23 assists in 72 games between the Hurricanes and Kings.

Versteeg (foot) was indeed a scratch for Thursday's game against the Flames, Helene Elliott of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg was expected to miss the contest despite participating in warmups, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that this is the case. The 29-year-old winger has four points since joining the Kings but has dressed for just nine games due to the foot injury suffered earlier in the month. The fact that he was doing well enough to warm up likely indicates he's close to returning and his next chance comes Saturday in a heavyweight matchup with the Stars.

Versteeg (foot) will take part in warmups Thursday but is unlikely to play in the game, Helene Elliott of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg has participated in just nine games with the Kings since coming over from Carolina prior to the trade deadline, but it appears there's a remote chance he will return to the lineup Thursday. Expect another update prior to puck drop, but the most likely scenario still involves him sitting out again.

Versteeg (foot) indicated Sunday that he will not go with the team on the road trip Monday to San Jose, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg's absence Monday will be his fifth straight, but he reportedly got in a good skate Sunday and remains in a day-to-day regimen of treatment and evaluation. There's no official timetable attached to the 29-year-old winger but it's probably best to consider him day-to-day unless something suggests otherwise.

Versteeg (foot) won't play Saturday against the Oilers, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg didn't partake in the Kings' morning skate, so it appears safe to conclude that he'll miss his fourth straight game due to the injury. The team hasn't issued a timetable for his return, but having Versteeg healthy by the time the postseason begins likely remains a top priority for the club.

Versteeg (foot) didn't participate in an optional skate Friday and seems unlikely for Saturday, LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg hasn't been able to skate since exiting a game late last week after taking a slap shot off his foot and would seem unlikely to jump back into the lineup Saturday. There's a chance he's able to take the morning skate and play Saturday but that seems remote at the moment.

Versteeg (foot) remains out of the lineup Thursday against the Jets, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg was expected to rejoin the team at some point on the three-game road trip, but it appears that will not be the case. The team returns home to face the Oilers on Saturday, which represents Versteeg's next chance to return, so expect another update on his status at some point before then.

Versteeg (foot) received further treatment Wednesday but remains uncertain for Thursday's game, LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Versteeg's status for Thursday likely will hinge on his ability to handle the morning skate. He has two goals and three assists in nine games with the Kings.

Versteeg (foot) remains day-to-day, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per the L.A. Times, Versteeg took a shot off his foot in Saturday's game against the Bruins, but fortunately there was no fracture, so the forward remains day-to-day as Thursday's game against the Jets approaches.
