The Los Angeles Kings have sent Justin Auger to Ontario (AHL).

Auger appeared in two games with the Kings last week, but was a healthy scratch for the last two games and returns to Ontario where he has yet to collect a point in three games.

Auger is expected to make his NHL debut on Wednesday.

Auger, 23, was a fourth round pick in 2013 and comes up to the NHL after picking up just four PIMS in three games with Ontario (AHL). He is not expected to bring a lot of offence to the table, having an AHL career-high of just 36 points (19G / 17A). What he certainly brings is size, standing in at 6-foot-7, 229 lbs.
