• Kings' Drew Doughty: Provides two helpers

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Doughty notched two assists, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Blackhawks. This was Doughty's second game back from missing seven due to a lower-body injury. The 35-year-old defenseman has immediately retaken his top-pairing spot and should continue to see significant minutes as long as he can stay healthy. He's up to two goals, eight assists, 26 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-10 rating through 21 appearances.

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Doughty (lower body) will be back in action Thursday versus Chicago, according to Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site. Doughty will be taken off injured reserve ahead of Thursday's match. He missed seven games with the injury. Doughty has two goals and eight points in 19 games this season and has seen his power-play time decrease significantly this season from a career-low 2:35 in 2024-25 to only 1:34 this season.

• Kings' Drew Doughty: Headed for IR

  11/19/2025 • By RotoWire

  Doughty (lower body) will be shifted to injured reserve Wednesday, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports. Considering Doughty is considered week-to-week, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him land on injured reserve. The team hasn't provided a clear recovery timeline, but it seems unlikely he'll be back before the end of November. While the 35-year-old Ontario native is mired in a five-game goal drought, he did chip in three assists over that stretch and managed just four shots.

• Kings' Drew Doughty: Labeled week-to-week

  11/17/2025 • By RotoWire

  Doughty (lower body) is considered week-to-week, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Monday. Doughty's injury is unrelated to last season's ankle problem, but it will still sideline him for a little while. Considering the 35-year-old defenseman's recovery timeline, fantasy managers can likely expect him to be placed on injured reserve in the coming days. Look for Brandt Clarke to see an uptick in ice time with Doughty on the shelf.

• Kings' Drew Doughty: Sustains lower-body injury

  11/16/2025 • By RotoWire

  Doughty (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Senators. Doughty was injured after blocking a shot in the second period. The 35-year-old defenseman's absence would be a big one if he's forced to miss additional time, especially with the Kings still on the road for two more games. If he's unavailable Monday against the Capitals, Jacob Moverare will likely take his place in the lineup.
