The Los Angeles Kings are gearing up for a crucial matchup against the Florida Panthers amid significant team news. Drew Doughty, their No. 1 defenseman, is set to make his season debut after a lengthy recovery from a broken ankle.

Additionally, discussions surrounding Brandt Clarke and Kevin Fiala's game-time status contribute to the busy day for the Kings.
