The NHL suspended Florida’s Matthew Tkachuk; Quinton Byfield sent down for conditioning assignment
The Kings also assigned center Quinton Byfield to the American Hockey League’s Ontario Reign, for what amounts to a de facto conditioning assignment after an illness sidelined the 20-year-old pivot, who was 2020’s second overall pick.
That leaves two-thirds of the newly formed third line on the shelf, with Alex Iafallo out indefinitely due to a lower-body injury. “We’re trying to rein it in a little bit more and be better defensively, but at the same time, in the same breath, we’re scoring more,” McLellan said. “We’ll see. We’re our own team right now, we’re figuring it out.”
“Are we going to be a high-event team every night? We’d better keep scoring five,” McLellan said. “If we’re going to be a high-event team and not put four or five up on the board, then we’ve got to fix some things.”
