Copley was the first goaltender off the ice at practice Friday, indicating he will be in the visiting crease versus Florida, Zach Dooley of LA Kings Insider reports.
EDGE Analysis
Copley has taken over as the Kings' top netminder, as he has started nine of the last ten games. Copley has a great record, having gone 14-3-0 this season, but his peripherals are not indicative of his record, as he's currently sporting a 2.80 GAA and an .897 save percentage. The Kings have scored 62 goals in 18 games for Copley, averaging 3.44 goals per game, good for seventh best in the NHL when he starts. Copley will face the Panthers, who are averaging 3.40 goals per game, well down from last season when they averaged an NHL-best 4.11 goals per contest.

Copley made 28 saves in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Philadelphia grabbed a 3-2 lead midway through the second period, but Copley shut the door the rest of the way and gave Kevin Fiala a chance to find the OT winner. The 31-year-old netminder continues to find success with the Kings, having gone 6-2-0 through nine appearances in January, but his 3.08 GAA and .886 save percentage on the month indicate the Kings' offense is mostly to thank for his impressive record.

Copley was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports, indicating he'll tend the twine on the road against the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Copley will make his ninth start in the team's last 10 contests, having posted a 5-2-0 record and 3.10 GAA during that stretch. Aside from his disastrous outing versus Nashville on Saturday, in which he was pulled less than a minute into the game, the young netminder has solidly cemented himself as the starter over veteran Jonathan Quick.

Copley allowed one goal on 19 shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Copley was removed 39 seconds into Saturday's start versus the Predators, having allowed two goals. It appears that quick hook paid off -- he was fresh enough to go Sunday, and he turned in a strong outing, albeit against a less-than-intimidating opponent. Despite some notable missteps, Copley is 5-2-0 over eight appearances in January. He's at 13-3-0 with a 2.79 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 17 starts this season. The Kings' road trip continues Tuesday in Philadelphia.

Copley allowed three goals on 30 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Copley allowed three goals for the second straight game, but he extended his winning streak to three. The Sharks made things interesting with a pair of third-period tallies, but the Kings had enough for the win. Copley improved to 12-2-0 with a 2.59 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 14 starts this season. He's still seeing a No. 1 role in goal, and with no back-to-backs until next weekend, it could be a bit longer before Jonathan Quick poaches a start away from Copley.
