Date | News | Advice |
---|---|---|
March 8, 2025 | Helenius was called up from AHL Ontario on Saturday. - Helenius has played 28 games with the Kings this season, tallying one goal and a pair of assists. The 22-year-old center had two goals and four assists in 20 AHL contests before his recall. | None |
March 6, 2025 | Helenius was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Thursday, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports. - Helenius was recalled Wednesday and saw 6:46 of ice time with one hit versus St. Louis. Overall, the 22-year-old has one goal and two assists with 81 hits over 28 games with the Kings this season. Helenius has two goals, four assists and 38 PIM over 20 AHL appearances this year. | None |
March 5, 2025 | Helenius was summoned by the Kings on Wednesday, per Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty. - Helenius has a goal, three points and 14 PIM in 27 appearances with Los Angeles in 2024-25. He's also recorded two goals, six points and 38 PIM across 20 outings with AHL Ontario. | None |
Jan. 29, 2025 | Helenius is expected to be sent down to AHL Ontario on Wednesday, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports. - Helenius appears to be the odd man out in Los Angeles, as the team needs a roster spot to activate Drew Doughty (ankle) off long-term injured reserve. In his 27 appearances this season, the 22-year-old Helenius has generated one goal, two assists and 16 shots while dishing out 80 hits. Helenius' demotion could create more opportunities for Akil Thomas -- though the Kings may also decide to deploy seven blueliners instead. | None |
Jan. 22, 2025 | Helenius scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Panthers. - Helenius had not gotten on the scoresheet since Nov. 16 when he had an assist versus the Red Wings. This was his first NHL goal. He's been a bottom-six player for much of the last two months aside from a four-game stretch of scratches earlier in January. Helenius is up to three points, 16 shots on net, 73 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 25 appearances as a rookie. Helenius may be at risk of losing his spot in the lineup once Alex Laferriere (upper body) can return, or if the Kings return to dressing seven defensemen. | None |
Jan. 15, 2025 | Helenius was recalled by the Kings on Wednesday, according to Kyle Garcia of Hockey Royalty. - Helenius has two assists and 14 PIM over 21 outings with the Kings in 2024-25. He also has two goals, three points and 29 PIM across nine appearances with AHL Ontario. | None |
Jan. 14, 2025 | Helenius was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Tuesday. - Helenius has been a healthy scratch for his last four NHL games, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him heading down to the minors to get some game action. The 22-year-old center could still be brought up ahead of Thursday's matchup with Vancouver -- though he likely will be hard-pressed to break into the lineup even if he is on the roster. | None |
Jan. 4, 2025 | Helenius was scratched for Saturday's 2-1 win over the Lightning. - Helenius had played in the prior 15 games, averaging 8:14 of ice time in that span while failing to record a point. If the Kings decide they don't need to roster 14 forwards, Helenius could be a player they consider reassigning to AHL Ontario now the team's forward group is fully healthy. The 22-year-old has just two assists and 70 hits through 21 appearances this season. | None |
Dec. 3, 2024 | Helenius was summoned from AHL Ontario on Tuesday. - Helenius was sent to the Reign on Monday, but he's now back with the Kings. The 22-year-old has collected two assists through nine games this season. | None |
Dec. 2, 2024 | Helenius was assigned to AHL Ontario on Monday. - Helenius has made nine appearances for the Kings this year, logging two assists and 31 hits while averaging 8:19 of ice time. He was sent down in mid-November in what turned out to be a paper transaction, and it's possible that he also rejoins the NHL club ahead of the Kings' matchup against the Stars on Wednesday. | None |
Nov. 18, 2024 | Helenius was called up from AHL Ontario on Monday. - It seems Helenius' demotion to the minors Sunday was a paper transaction with the forward now officially back on the NHL roster. Looking ahead to Wednesday's matchup with the Sabres, it will likely come down to Helenius or Akil Thomas for the last spot on the fourth line. In his four appearances for the Kings, the 21-year-old Helenius has garnered two assists, four shots on goal and 12 hits. | None |
Nov. 17, 2024 | Helenius was loaned to AHL Ontario on Sunday. - Helenius could be back with the Kings in short order if this transaction was completed for cap-related purposes. The left-shot center picked up two points over four games with Los Angeles. | None |
Nov. 16, 2024 | Helenius posted an assist, three hits and four blocked shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings. - Helenius has two helpers over his first four NHL outings. The 21-year-old hasn't hesitated to show toughness either, racking up 12 hits, seven PIM and four blocked shots while filling a fourth-line role. Helenius was called up to cover for Tanner Jeannot's three-game suspension, but Jeannot was back Saturday, so it's unclear if Helenius will stick around the NHL much longer. He's done enough to get a longer look. | None |
Nov. 9, 2024 | The Kings recalled Helenius from AHL Ontario on Saturday. - Helenius could make his NHL debut Saturday against the Blue Jackets. The 21-year-old was selected in the second round -- 59th overall -- in 2021 and had two goals and one assist in eight AHL games in 2024-25 before his recall. The Kings placed Alex Turcotte on injured reserve in a corresponding move. | None |
Oct. 1, 2023 | Helenius was demoted to AHL Ontario on Sunday. - Helenius spent all of last year with AHL Ontario, tallying two goals and 14 points in 61 games. The 20-year-old forward will likely fill a similar role in the Kings' organization during the 2023-24 campaign. | None |
