  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Clarke produced three assists and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights. One of Clarke's helpers came on the power play. The 21-year-old is attempting to launch himself to star status quickly -- he has earned a goal and six helpers during his four-game point streak. Overall, he's at one goal, 10 assists, 21 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 11 contests. He's tied with Josh Morrissey for fourth in points by defensemen this season, trailing only Cale Makar (19), Neal Pionk (12) and Alex Pietrangelo (12).

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Clarke provided an assist and five shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks. Clarke is looking good on offense with four points over his last three games. The defenseman has added a plus-3 rating and five blocked shots in that span, so he's no slouch in his own zone either. For the season, the 21-year-old has eight points, 19 shots on net, 19 blocks, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 10 contests.

• Kings' Brandt Clarke: Gets first goal of season

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Clarke scored a goal and added an assist in a 3-2 win over Utah on Saturday. He got his first goal of 2024-25 during a second-period power play for the Kings. Clarke has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last two games and seven, including six assists, in nine contests this season. His six helpers have him tied with Anze Kopitar for the team lead. Clarke had a game-high four blocks Saturday, and he has 10 in his last four games. The 21-year-old is working to demonstrate that he's more than simply an offensive specialist. That's a work in progress, but so far, so good.

• Kings' Brandt Clarke: Sends helper in win

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Clarke notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Sharks. Clarke had been held off the scoresheet in the previous three games, which earned him a drop back to the third pairing. The 21-year-old blueliner looks set to compete with Jordan Spence all season for premium minutes. Clarke has done well early on with five assists, 13 shots on net and 14 blocked shots, but he also has a minus-1 rating and 12 PIM through eight contests. Taking too many penalties could lead to a reduced role.

• Kings' Brandt Clarke: Huge day on power play

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Clarke notched three power-play assists in Monday's 8-7 overtime loss to the Senators. The two teams combined for seven goals with the man advantage, and Clarke had a hand in all three of the Kings' power-play tallies to record his first points of the season. The 21-year-old blueliner worked on the top power-play unit Monday, and his big performance could allow him to hang onto that plum assignment as long as Drew Doughty (ankle) remains sidelined. Jordan Spence is Clarke's main competition for time with the man advantage.
