Kings' Joel Armia: Three points in bronze medal game
Armia scored a goal, recorded two assists and fired four shots on net during Finland's 6-1 win over Slovakia in the Olympic bronze-medal game Saturday.
Armia helped pave Finland's path to the Olympic bronze medal with two primary assists sandwiching his empty-net goal with just under five minutes remaining in the contest. With the trio of points, the 32-year-old forward finished the Olympics with three goals, five assists and a plus-seven rating across six appearances. His eight points are currently tied for fourth in the tournament with Slovakia's Juraj Slafkovsky and Czechia's Martin Necas. Armia will not only return to Los Angeles with Olympic hardware, but also with a case to play alongside the newly-acquired Artemi Panarin with Kevin Fiala (leg) out for the season.

Armia scored a goal on six shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Ducks.
Armia missed five games due to an upper-body injury. He looked like the Kings' best player in this contest, and his effort at least earned them one standings point. The winger is up to 10 goals, 18 points, 57 shots on net, 39 hits, 24 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 42 appearances this season, mainly in a middle-six role.

Kings' Joel Armia: Out again Monday
Armia (upper body) will not be available versus the Stars on Monday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Armia will be out of action for his fourth consecutive outing due to his lingering upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the veteran forward was struggling to produce offensively, notching just one point in his last eight contests. Taylor Ward figures to continue serving in a fourth-line role while Armia is unavailable.

Kings' Joel Armia: Still sidelined Friday
Armia (upper body) is expected to remain out of the lineup for Friday's clash with Winnipeg, per NHL.com.
Armia will be unavailable for his second straight game due to his lingering upper-body injury. While the team hasn't provided a concrete update on the 32-year-old winger, the fact that it is heading into a back-to-back means Armia is unlikely to feature versus the Oilers on Saturday either.

Kings' Joel Armia: Won't play Wednesday
Armia (upper body) will not be in the lineup versus the Sharks on Wednesday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Armia has been struggling offensively of late, generating one point in his last eight outings. Despite the recent slump, the veteran winger could still top the 30-point mark for the first time since 2019-20 when he was with the Habs, assuming his upper-body injury doesn't keep him sidelined too long.

Kings' Joel Armia: Deemed day-to-day
Armia (upper body) is day-to-day, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Tuesday.
Armia left Monday's 4-2 win over Minnesota midway through the second period and didn't return. An update on his status should come before Wednesday's matchup against San Jose. Armia has produced nine goals, 16 points, 51 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and 38 hits across 41 appearances this season.

Kings' Joel Armia: Injured against Minnesota
Armia suffered an upper-body injury Monday against the Wild and will not return to the game.
Armia went to locker room in the second period after "some contact" from Quinn Hughes, per Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty. Anze Kopitar (lower body) was also injured Monday, so the Kings are currently down to 10 forwards. Armia can be considered day-to-day until his status is updated ahead of Wednesday's matchup against San Jose.

Kings' Joel Armia: Scores shortie in loss
Armia scored a shorthanded goal and added two hits in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.
Armia's tally kept the Kings close in the third period, but the Avalanche scored two goals late to pull away. The 32-year-old winger has earned four goals, one assist and 16 shots on net over his last 10 contests while filling a bottom-six role. He's up to nine goals, 16 points (five shorthanded, one on the power play), 47 shots, 33 hits, 22 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 38 appearances. His offense isn't great, but Armia can provide category coverage for fantasy managers in deep formats.

Kings' Joel Armia: Nets power-play goal
Armia scored a power-play goal on two shots and added four PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers.
Armia scored with a man advantage for the first time since the 2021-22 campaign -- he had been limited to four power-play assists across the last three years. The Kings are giving him a look on the second unit for now, but he's more of a defensive winger. On the year, he's at eight goals, seven helpers, 43 shots on net, 27 hits, 20 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 33 appearances.

Kings' Joel Armia: Pair of goals Monday
Armia scored two goals and fired four shots on net in Monday's 4-2 win over the Mammoth.
Armia helped the Kings double their lead with a goal midway through the first period before he put the game to bed with an empty-net score in the final two minutes. The 32-year-old right winger is up to seven goals, 13 points, 35 shots on net and 25 hits through 29 games this season. He's quietly on pace to best his career high of 30 points, which he set in 58 regular-season games with Montreal during the 2018-19 campaign. His minutes have also trended upward over the last few contests with his move up to the Kings' second line. While Armia won't provide immense fantasy value in standard leagues throughout the course of the season, he may be worth a look as a streaming option with his revamped role.

Kings' Joel Armia: Back-to-back shorthanded goals
Armia scored a shorthanded goal on two shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Armia's last two goals have been shorties, and they've come over the last two games. The winger is up to five tallies, three of which have come shorthanded, and 10 points through 22 appearances. He's added 27 shots on net, 21 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-3 rating. Armia's ability to play in tough defensive situations is good to keep him in the lineup, but fantasy managers can likely find better options in most formats.
