Copley is expected to occupy the visiting crease against Boston on Thursday, Zach Dooley of LAKings Insider reports.
EDGE Analysis
Copley will start for the fourth time in the Kings' last six games. He gave up only two goals in each of his first two games and was perfect through two periods against Buffalo on Tuesday, before giving up six goals in the final period. He will face the Bruins, who lead the NHL standings with a 23-4-1 record and have scored 110 goals, second-best in the NHL.

Copley made 25 saves in Tuesday's 6-0 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
The game was actually scoreless after two periods, but Copley couldn't hold down the explosive Buffalo offense forever. Once Tage Thompson wired the puck top shelf over the netminder's shoulder 81 seconds into the final frame, the floodgates opened. The 30-year-old journeyman had given up only two goals in each of his first two starts for the Kings, while Jonathan Quick has coughed up 15 goals over his last three games, so expect the duo to continue in a timeshare for now despite this setback for Copley.

Copley was the first goalie to exit Tuesday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports, indicating he'll guard the crease on the road versus Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Copley has victories in both of his appearances for the Kings this season and has earned himself a split share of the workload alongside veteran Jonathan Quick. Even with Copley performing well, he will be hard-pressed to secure the No. 1 job over long-time Kings' starter Quick.

Copley stopped 31 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Copley was sharp in his first start of the season, allowing just a pair of power-play goals while turning aside 31 shots in the 5-2 victory. The 30-year-old netminder was 6-4-2 with a .913 save percentage with AHL Ontario. Copely made just two NHL appearances last season with Washington, going 0-1-0 while stopping 36 of 41 shots. He should see more opportunities with the Kings going forward while backing up a struggling Jonathan Quick.

Copley was waived by the Kings on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

Copley signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with the Kings on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Copley's deal is one-way, which means he'll earn the same salary in the NHL and AHL. The 30-year-old is a veteran netminder who has yet to really break through to the NHL level. He has a 2.38 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 35 games with AHL Hershey last season, and he should slot in behind Cal Petersen and Jonathan Quick on the Kings' goalie depth chart.
