Summary
Joel Armia’s Kings run was a steal—outplaying his two-year, $5M deal with 25 points (13G, 12A) in 67 games, including four shorthanded goals and top ice time on the penalty kill. A surprise early-season scorer, he hit a wall after an upper-body injury sidelined him around the Olympic break, fading to just five points in his final 16 games and even getting scratched in a playoff game. Now entering his final year on a $2.5M contract, he’s expected back on the fourth line but remains a vital penalty-killer. If healthy and logging 70+ games, he’s poised for another 20-30 point season—proving he’s still LA’s unsung depth gem with his future hanging in the balance.
