Armia hasn't played in over three weeks due to an upper-body injury, but anticipates returning to the lineup on Saturday against the Buffalo Sabres. The 32-year-old Finn has ten goals and ten assists in 53 games this season.

Kempe was a late scratch in Monday's win over the New York Rangers due to a lower-body injury. The 29-year-old forward has found instant chemistry since Artemi Panarin joined the team, scoring 12 points (6G / 6A) in 10 games.

Kuemper was excellent in Monday's 4-1 win over the New York Rangers, saving 21 of 22 shots (.955 SV%), and is putting together a stretch of strong play as the Kings continue their last-season push for a playoff spot. The 35-year-old goalie has a solid 2.41 GAA and .905 SV% in his last five games (3-1-1). The Kings enter Thursday's contest as -179 favourites against a Philadelphia Flyers team with points in four straight games (3-0-1).

Kempe was a last-minute scratch on Monday, with the Kings only announcing his absence minutes before puck drop. Kempe took full part in warmups and it's unclear when exactly he suffered the injury. We should get an update on his status ahead of the Kings' game against the Flyers on Thursday.

The Kings are well within reach of a playoff spot, but they have failed to string together consistent play and will need Kuemper to be a steadying force down the stretch. Despite struggling straight out of the Olympic break, posting an ugly 4.54 GAA and .849 SV% in three games (1-2-0), the 35-year-old Kuemper has performed much better in his last two outings (1-0-1), posting a 2.00 GAA and .913 SV%. The Kings enter Monday's contest as slight -111 road favourites against a surging New York Rangers team that is riding a four-game winning streak.

The Kings enter Friday's contest as +125 road underdogs against the New York Islanders, a team they defeated 5-3 less than two weeks ago.
