Kings' Joel Edmundson: First goals of season
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 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.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: Earns assist Tuesday
Edmundson notched an assist, three shots on goal, four hits, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Edmundson picked up his first point in two games after he missed two contests to attend to a family matter. The 31-year-old defenseman has two helpers, nine shots on net, nine hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over five appearances this season, but his defensive performance wasn't great Tuesday. He's unlikely to score enough to help in fantasy.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: On non-roster injured reserve
Edmundson (personal) was moved to non-roster injured reserve by LA on Wednesday.
Edmundson last played Monday, so the earliest he can return to the lineup would be Tuesday against Vegas. He has an assist, three hits and eight blocks in three games this season.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: Away from team Tuesday
Edmundson (personal) did not practice Tuesday and is currently away from the team, according to Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: Contributes assist in season opener
Edmundson logged an assist, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Sabres.
Edmundson was signed to a three-year in July, making him a virtual lock for the third pairing. The veteran defenseman isn't known to put up significant scoring numbers, nor has he been able to play a high number of games. Last season, he was limited to six points, 80 hits and 65 blocked shots over 53 games between the Capitals and the Maple Leafs. He saw 20:38 of ice time in his Kings debut, and he could be in line for more minutes while Drew Doughty (ankle) is out, but Edmundson offers minimal fantasy upside.

Kings' Joel Edmundson: Gets three-year contract
Edmundson signed a four-year, $15.4 million contract with the Kings on Monday.
Edmundson had a goal, six points, 23 PIM, 80 hits and 65 blocked shots in 53 regular-season contests between Washington and Toronto in 2023-24. The 31-year-old will probably serve primarily on the Kings' third pairing.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Posts rare helper in loss
Edmundson recorded an assist in Game 3 against the Bruins on Wednesday in a 4-2 home loss.
Edmundson rushed toward the attacking zone after John Tavares sent a crisp pass his way from center ice, and it led to a Matthew Knies goal courtesy of a Mitch Marner helper. Still, since the Leafs are down 2-1 to Boston in the Conference Quarterfinals and are averaging just 2.00 goals per contest, this team needs to pick up the pace offensively. Edmundson isn't expected to do much in that area as a third-pairing defenseman without a role on the power play.

Edmundson is projected to start the postseason on the third pairing alongside Timothy Liljegren.

Edmundson (undisclosed) is set to play Tuesday versus the Panthers, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Might play Tuesday
Edmundson (undisclosed) will be re-evaluated ahead of a matchup with Florida on Tuesday. Head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "We'll see where he's at tomorrow just to be sure, but practice today was a positive sign for him," per Mark Masters of TSN.
Edmundson has played in just one of Toronto's last 10 outings due to various injury concerns but seems to be nearing a return to action. Considering the defenseman has just six points in 44 contests, few fantasy managers should be banking on Edmundson producing offensively.

Edmundson (undisclosed) won't play Saturday against Detroit, according to Mark Masters of TSN.
The Maple Leafs are being very cautious with a new injury that popped up for Edmundson. He logged 19:22 of ice time in Toronto's 6-5 loss to New Jersey after missing eight games. Timothy Liljegren (upper body) will replace Edmundson in Saturday's lineup.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Back at it
Edmundson (undisclosed) told reporters he's good to go for Thursday's matchup with New Jersey, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
Edmundson should return to a bottom-pairing role following his eight-game absence. The 30-year-old blueliner has picked up just six points through 44 contests this season, so his return won't impact any fantasy lineups.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Ruled out at least two more games
Edmundson (undisclosed) will not be available against Pittsburgh or New Jersey on Monday and Tuesday, respectively, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Edmundson is still reportedly in contention to return versus the Devils on Thursday, though he hasn't been officially cleared to return.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Resumes skating
Edmundson (undisclosed) skated Wednesday for the first time since he sustained an undisclosed injury, according to David Alter of The Hockey News.

Edmundson hasn't been in the lineup since March 24, but it seems like he's making progress in his recovery. He has a goal, six points, 73 hits and 60 blocks in 51 outings between Washington and Toronto this season. With Edmundson ruled out for Toronto's upcoming two contests, his next potential opportunity to return will be Monday versus Pittsburgh.

Maple Leafs' Joel Edmundson: Makes Toronto debut
Edmundson had one shot on goal in 19:03 of ice time Saturday in a 3-2 win over Montreal.
He was acquired in a trade with Washington on Thursday. Edmundson doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy value. He posted one goal, five assists, 19 PIM, 59 hits, 49 blocks and 41 shots in 44 games with the Capitals before the deal. Still, he should help the Maple Leafs on the penalty kill and provide some physicality from the blue line.
