Laughton scored a goal in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton found the back of the net at the 13:57 mark of the second period with a wrister, giving him 13 goals on the year. However, the 31-year-old veteran is a bottom-six forward who's more known for his defensive prowess and physical attributes than for his scoring. Since being acquired from the Maple Leafs on March 6, Laughton has suited up in 16 games for the Kings, tallying five goals, seven points, 36 hits and 11 blocked shots.

Laughton scored a goal on two shots and added six hits in Thursday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
The second-period tally was Laughton's second goal in his last four games. The 31-year-old center continues to look steady in a third-line role with his new team. He's up to 12 goals, 18 points, 82 shots on net, 112 hits, 37 blocked shots and 27 PIM through 57 appearances between the Kings and the Maple Leafs. Laughton has some appeal in deeper fantasy formats, as he's seeing playing time in all situations.

Laughton scored a power-play goal on five shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton had gone eight games without a goal, picking up just one assist in that span. The 31-year-old center has retained a power-play role throughout the slump, which is a good sign for his production down the stretch, though he won't be a leader on offense. He's now at 11 goals, 17 points, 75 shots on net, 101 hits, 35 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 54 appearances between the Kings and the Maple Leafs this season.

Laughton produced a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran center opened the scoring early in the first period, redirecting a feed from Brian Dumoulin past Jet Greaves from in close. The move to the West Coast is agreeing with Laughton -- he has two goals and three points in his first two games with the Kings, while skating on the third line at even strength and seeing shifts with the second power-play unit.

Laughton scored a goal and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton was limited to fourth-line usage in Toronto this season, but the Kings had him on the third line with ice time in all situations. If that holds, that's a huge boost to his fantasy value, making him viable in deeper formats. Laughton has nine goals, four assists, 54 shots on net, 82 hits, 28 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across 44 appearances this season. Laughton last got steady power-play time in 2022-23 and 2023-24, which were the two best seasons of his career with 43 and 39 regular-season points, respectively.

Laughton (not injury related) was traded to Los Angeles on Friday from Toronto in exchange for a conditional third-round pick, Emily Kaplan of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton was limited to just 63 regular-season games for the Leafs over the last two years, logging 10 goals and six helpers along the way. The veteran forward should offer the Kings some depth down the middle but will likely remain in a bottom-six role. As such, he's unlikely to produce more than mid-range fantasy value down the stretch.

Laughton won't play Wednesday in New Jersey for roster-management reasons, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Toronto is poised to be a seller ahead of Friday's trade deadline, and Laughton is among those who could move elsewhere. He has eight goals and 12 points across 43 appearances in 2025-26. If Laughton is still a member of the Maple Leafs on Thursday, he will probably be scratched again rather than play against the Rangers.

Laughton scored a goal, added two hits and logged two PIM in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton has three goals over his last five games. Despite his tally Friday, the 31-year-old center saw just 9:28 of ice time, his second-lowest mark in a game all season. He's up to eight goals, two assists, 40 shots on net, 58 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 33 outings while filling a fourth-line role.

Laughton scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton opened the scoring at 4:46 of the first period, but that was all the Maple Leafs could muster. The 31-year-old has three goals over his last eight games, and he's averaging 14:26 of ice time in that span, raising his season average to 13:47 per game. Laughton has seven goals, two helpers, 39 shots on net, 56 hits and 25 blocked shots over 32 appearances. He remains a key part of Toronto's defensive structure.

Laughton scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Laughton scored for the second time in five games. His tally Thursday put the Maple Leafs ahead 5-3 in the third period, but they weren't able to manage the lead. The 31-year-old center has contributed six goals (two shorthanded), two assists, 35 shots on net, 51 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating across 29 appearances this season, mainly in a fourth-line role.
