Latest news
Edmundson scored an empty-net goal, recorded an assist, posted a plus-3 rating and put two shots on net in Monday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.
Edmundson's empty-net tally late in the third period was the fourth goal from a Kings' defenseman in Monday's big win. The goal was also his first of the season, bringing his season totals up to two points, a plus-4 rating, 14 shots on net, eight hits and 14 blocked shots across 10 appearances. The 12-year NHL veteran tallied just two goals across 82 regular-season games in 2025-26, so it's an encouraging sign to see him find the back of the net early in the new season. If he can become more regularly involved in the offense from his second-line role, Edmundson would be a serviceable streaming option in deep leagues due to his steady category coverage.

Edmundson (undisclosed) is good to play Wednesday in Colorado, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.
Edmundson had two goals, 23 points, 25 PIM, 97 hits and 111 blocks in 82 regular-season appearances with the Kings in 2025-26. Erik Gustafsson might have been inserted into the lineup if Edmundson were unavailable, but Gustafsson is now projected to be a healthy scratch Wednesday.

Edmundson (undisclosed) is day-to-day, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports Saturday.
Edmundson's status for the Kings' season opener in Colorado on Wednesday remains uncertain. If Edmundson can't play in the opener, then Erik Gustafsson might draw into the lineup. Edmundson has two goals and 23 points in 82 regular-season appearances in 2025-26.

Edmundson scored a goal in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche in Game 4 of the Western Conference first round.
Edmundson found the back of the net in the second period with a wrister, but that would be all the offense the Kings would muster throughout the game. It was also Edmundson's lone point of a playoff run that ended with Sunday's loss. He had a career-high 23 points (two goals, 21 assists) in 82 regular-season contests, but he was far from a reliable fantasy performer, although he had more upside in leagues that reward physicality with his 97 hits and 111 blocked shots.

Edmundson notched an assist, three shots on goal, two hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Mammoth.
Edmundson has picked up two assists, a plus-7 rating, 21 blocked shots and 18 hits over 14 appearances in March. The 32-year-old blueliner continues to handle top-four minutes in a shutdown role. He's earned 19 points, 87 shots on net, 87 hits, 96 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a plus-11 rating through 73 appearances. If he can get one more point, he'll reach 20 for the second year in a row and the third time in his 11-year career.

Edmundson recorded an assist, four blocked shots and three hits in Thursday's 8-1 loss to the Oilers.
The assist ended a 15-game slump for Edmundson. The defenseman was managing an upper-body issue in late January, though the rest during the Olympic break likely helped him recover from that concern. He's at 17 points, 74 shots on net, 68 hits, 73 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 58 outings this season, giving him a chance to reach the 20-point mark for the second campaign in a row and just the third time in his career. His 15 assists this year are a career high.
