Just days after signing a one-year, $825,000 contract extension, Arthur Kaliyev suffered a fractured clavicle in training camp and will be out for the next four-to-six weeks. It is disappointing for the 23-year-old after a down year in 2023-24 with just seven goals, 15 points, 101 SOG and 14 PIMs in 51 games played.
After a long offseason without a contract, Arthur Kaliyev and Los Angeles have agreed on a one-year, $825,000 contract extension. The 23-year-old right-winger is entering his fourth full season in Los Angeles and took an unexpected step backwards in 2023-24 with only seven goals and 15 points in 51 games played.
Kaliyev will take a seat on Thursday as the Kings opt to get some fresh legs into their lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Akil Thomas will draw into the lineup in his place.
Kaliyev will be the odd-man out on Monday as the Kings opt to dress seven defensemen. Mikey Anderson (upper-body) will return to the Kings' lineup in place of Kaliyev.
Kaliyev has not played since February 27th, missing three games, but will re-enter the lineup on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators. Kaliyev has been in and out of the lineup for the last several months as a result of inconsistent play. He has zero points in his last 16 games.
Kaliyev will make way for Brandt Clarke as the Kings are opting to dress seven defensemen on Thursday. He has six goals and eight assists in 44 games this season.
Kaliyev will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday in order to make room for the return of Quinton Byfield (illness). Kaliyev has enjoyed a rather productive season considering his limited usage, registering six goals and eight assists in 38 games with an ATOI of 13:10.
Quinton Byfield will not play Friday in Colorado, so Kaliyev will play for the first time since January 18th. Kaliyev was a healthy scratch for the last three games but comes back into the lineup with six goals and eight assists (14 points) in 36 games this season.
Kaliyev has missed the last three games but will draw back into the lineup on Friday. The 22-year-old Kaliyev has failed to record a point in eight straight games while averaging nearly 13 minutes of time-on-ice per night.
Kaliyev will re-enter the lineup on Thursday after sitting out Tuesday's game against the Maple Leafs. He has six goals and eight assists in 30 games this season.
Kaliyev's absence for Tuesday's game is a surprise, and it's unclear at this time whether this is simply a healthy scratch or if it's due to an undisclosed injury. He has six goals and eight assists in 30 games this season. Jaret Anderson-Dolan will enter the lineup in his place.
Kaliyev missed the Kings' practice Tuesday and will be a game-time decision Wednesday vs. Winnipeg as he deals with an illness. The 22-year-old right-winger has enjoyed a solid start to his 2023-24 season, with six goals, 12 points, 10 PIMs, 47 SOG and a +7 plus/minus in 23 games played.
Kaliyev will make his season debut after serving a four-game suspension issued to him during the preseason for a knee infraction against Chase De Leo of the Anaheim Ducks. The skilled right-winger is expected to line up on the Kings' third line with Trevor Moore and Phillip Danault. Last season, Kaliyev scored a career-high 28 points (13G / 15A) in 56 games while averaging only 11:41 time-on-ice.
Kaliyev landed a minor penalty and was not ejected for his knee infraction which hurt Anaheim's Chase De Leo but has been suspended for two preseason, and two regular season games after having a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety. The 22-year-old was expected to crack the Kings' roster after scoring 13 goals, 15 assists, 122 SOG, 12 PIMs and a -5 plus/minus in his second full NHL season in 2022-23.
Kaliyev had one SOG and a -1 plus/minus through the first two games of the Kings' opening series and will be a healthy scratch for Game 3 as Zack MacEwen replaces him in Los Angles lineup. The 21-year-old had 13 goals, 28 points and a -5 plus/minus through 56 games during the regular season.
Kaliyev has been a healthy scratch for the Kings' previous three games but will draw back into the lineup Tuesday vs. Calgary as he replaces Jaret Anderson-Dolan. The 21-year-old has 11 goals, 13 assists, 104 SOG, 10 PIMs and a -4 plus/minus through 47 games played this season.
