Kings' Anze Kopitar: Earns two points Thursday
Kopitar scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Sharks.
This was Kopitar's first multi-point effort of the season. He's had a strong November so far, earning four goals and three assists over nine outings this month. The 38-year-old center is up to four goals, 12 points, 25 shots on net, 18 blocked shots, 11 hits and a plus-8 rating across 17 appearances.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Strikes again on power play
Kopitar scored a power-play goal and put two shots on goal in Monday's 2-1 loss to Washington.
Kopitar tallied his third overall goal of the season on a second-period power play, but his marker wouldn't be enough to spark a comeback. All three goals from the 38-year-old star this season have been with a man advantage, giving him an added boost in fantasy leagues that place a premium on power-play points. Overall, the 20-year NHL veteran has 10 points and 23 shots on net through 16 games this season. He's currently a few points shy of the pace needed to maintain his production of 67 points through 81 regular-season games from a year ago, but he still has plenty of time to get involved in the offense. Kopitar has excelled as a playmaker since entering the league in 2006, and the rest of his final season should be no different.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Finds twine Sunday
Kopitar scored a power-play goal in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Penguins.
Kopitar lit the lamp on a power play just six minutes after the Penguins opened the scoring. With the tally, the 38-year-old center is up to two goals, eight points and 18 shots on goal in 12 games this season. Since his return from injury on Oct. 25, he has four total points and is beginning to trend upwards with a goal in each of his last two games. The 20-year NHL veteran is just 14 points away from 1,300 in his career, which he should hit with ease later this season if he stays healthy. Even in his last season, Kopitar is still a near point-per-game player and has a case to be rostered in most fantasy formats.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Tallies on power play
Kopitar scored a power-play goal on three shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.
The goal was Kopitar's first of the season. He has three points over his last four games. The 38-year-old center is at one goal, six helpers, 17 shots on net, 12 blocked shots, 11 hits and a plus-6 rating over 11 appearances. He missed some time due to a foot injury in October, but it's unclear if that has continued to hamper his performance since he returned to the lineup Oct. 25.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Shifts to injured reserve
Kopitar (foot) was moved to injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Deemed week-to-week
Kopitar is considered week-to-week due to a foot injury, the team announced Friday.
Kopitar, who missed Wednesday's practice, was regarded as a game-time decision Thursday versus Pittsburgh, but it seems the injury is worse than initially thought. Given Kopitar's new timetable, he'll likely miss at least the Kings' next three games -- Saturday versus Columbus, Tuesday in St. Louis and next Thursday in Dallas. Phillip Danault is projected to serve on the first line during Kopitar's absence.

Kopitar (undisclosed) is expected to be a game-time decision for Thursday's clash against Pittsburgh, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Kopitar has opened the 2025-26 campaign with a four-game scoring streak, collecting four assists in that span. If Kopitar isn't able to play Thursday, then Samuel Helenius will likely draw into the lineup, while Phillip Danault will probably shift into the top six.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Entering final season
Kopitar announced Thursday that the 2025-26 season will be his last in the NHL, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
Kopitar will head into his 20th and final season when this campaign kicks off. The Slovenian center leads the franchise in games played (1,454) and assists (838) and is also the most prominent hockey player from his country. He is also a two-time Stanley Cup Champion, a five-time All-Star and has won the Selke Trophy twice and the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy three times. Kopitar figures to push for 20-plus goals and approximately 70 points in 2025-26 as he looks to go out on a high note as one of the best two-way centers of his generation.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Scores in season-ending loss
Kopitar scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.
Kopitar tallied with 55 seconds left in the third period to bring the Kings within one, but the Oilers held them at bay. Kopitar was not the problem this postseason, putting up two goals, seven assists, eight shots on net, eight hits, six blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over six outings. The 37-year-old center is entering the final year of his contract in 2025-26. While his surface numbers were excellent in 2024-25 with 21 goals and 67 points over 81 regular-season outings, a significant decline in shot volume (98) and a career-high shooting percentage (21.4) raise red flags for regression on offense even if he remains an elite defensive center.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Delivers power-play assist
Kopitar notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.
Kopitar set up Andrei Kuzmenko's tally at 3:33 of the second period, which opened the scoring. The 37-year-old Kopitar is leading by example on offense with a goal and seven assists over five playoff contests, but he's also taken a minus-5 rating while adding six shots on net, six hits and six blocked shots. The center will continue to see time on the top line and first power-play unit as he tries to help the Kings bounce back in a must-win Game 6 on Thursday in Edmonton.

Kings' Anze Kopitar: Provides two helpers in loss
Kopitar notched two assists, two shots on goal, four blocked shots and a minus-4 rating in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 3.
Kopitar is up to one goal and six assists over three playoff outings. While his offense has been strong -- three of his seven points have come on the power -- the center is also sporting a minus-4 rating in the postseason. This was also his first time in five games logging multiple shots on net. The 37-year-old center should be fine as a playmaker on the first line and on the power play, but he may struggle to score goals if he can't increase his shot volume.
