Durzi potted a power-play goal in Friday's 4-3 shootout victory against the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Durzi was a busy beaver in his team debut, leading the Arizona rearguards with three shots on goal while also taking a minor penalty in his 23:26 of ice time. He has already equaled his power-play goal total of a season ago with the Kings. The 24-year-old should have a lot more responsibilities on the Arizona blue line than he did in L.A.

Durzi was traded from LA to Arizona on Saturday for a second-round pick in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.
EDGE Analysis
Durzi had a good offensive season in 2022-23, tallying nine goals while adding 29 assists. The 24-year-old defenseman will be a top-four defenseman in Arizona and should see plenty of time on the power play for a Coyotes team with few established alternatives on the blue line. LA will receive Montreal's second-round pick in 2024.

Durzi scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
Durzi snapped his 11-game point drought Saturday, but it wasn't enough to keep the Kings' season going. The defenseman added just five shots on net with 14 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over six playoff contests. His scoring touch is obvious after a 38-point effort in 72 regular-season games, but there's still progress for Durzi to make in his own zone to be a trusted part of the Kings' defense.

Durzi netted a goal in the Kings' 2-1 loss to Calgary on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Durzi missed seven straight games because of an upper-body injury, but he's contributed three points (a goal, two assists) in two contests since returning. That's pushed him up to eight goals and 37 points in 64 appearances this season. The 24-year-old, who is in his sophomore campaign, has established himself as a regular on the Kings' power play. Going into Tuesday's action, Durzi was averaging 2:10 of ice time with the man advantage, and he's provided 16 points in that role.

Durzi logged a pair of assists in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Both of Durzi's assists came on the power play, setting up Viktor Arvidsson in the first period before grabbing his second helper on Trevor Moore's tally 1:58 later. It was a strong showing for the 24-year-old Durzi, who had missed Los Angeles' previous seven contests with an upper-body injury. He's up to 36 points (seven goals, 29 assists) through 63 games this season.

Durzi (upper body) joined the Kings for Wednesday's practice, per Zach Dooley of LA Kings Insider.
EDGE Analysis
Durzi had been skating on his own, but this is the first time he's worked with LA since he was injured March 6. Durzi served as an extra during the practice, so it might still take some time before he's ready to play, but the 24-year-old is at least trending in the right direction. He has seven goals and 34 points in 62 contests this season.
