Portillo was recalled on an emergency basis from AHL Ontario on Friday.
The Kings need a backup netminder, as Darcy Kuemper suffered an undisclosed injury in Wednesday's tilt versus Colorado and was placed on injured reserve Friday. David Rittich will get the start Saturday versus Detroit, while Portillo will be the backup. Portillo was 3-2-0 with a 3.02 GAA and an .891 save percentage over five AHL appearances to begin the season.
