Kings' Joel Edmundson: Slings helper in overtime loss
Joel Edmundson provided an assist, five shots on goal and four hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Predators.Edmundson helped out on an Alex Laferriere goal in the third period. Surprisingly, the five shots were not a season-high for Edmundson -- he had seven in a 4-1 win over the Wild on Dec. 7. The 31-year-old blueliner has been a pleasant surprise offensively with 10 points through 31 outings this season. Edmundson has added 52 hits, 48 blocked shots, 43 shots on net, 14 PIM and a plus-14 rating while seeing top-four minutes. His offense alone doesn't move the needle in fantasy, but there's enough physicality to make an impact in deeper formats.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: First goals of season
Joel Edmundson scored twice Saturday in a 3-2 victory over Utah. He also had two hits, three blocks and three shots.Edmundson looked the part of a sniper on the first goal of the season, wiring a one-timer from below the left circle as he slid on one knee. His second was a slapper from the point through traffic early in the third that stood as the winner. Edmundson doesn't have a reputation as a scorer, with his career mark of seven goals coming in 2017-18 and 2019-20. Still, the Los Angeles Kings had to redistribute some responsibility on the blue line with Drew Doughty (ankle) unavailable, so it was positive to see Edmundson contribute. Count on triple-digit hits and blocks from Edmundson, and take any points as a bonus.
