Brendan Lemieux Scores Goal In Regulation Thursday
Los Angeles Kings left-winger Brendan Lemieux had not scored in five games, so naturally he converted a rare opportunity in the second period on Thursday. He fired a surprising six shots on goal and generated four scoring chances in 15:40 of ice time. When Lemieux gets an opportunity in the top-six, he tends to excel for the most part. His goal beat Jaroslav Halak clean and was the only puck Los Angeles got past him in 65 minutes. Lemieux now has six goals in 21 games. Though he mostly plays fourth-line minutes, one has to wonder if he sees middle-six ice time on a more consistent basis soon.
Brendan Lemieux Returns And Scores Game Winning Goal
Los Angeles Kings right-winger Brendan Lemieux played a hair less than ten minutes on Saturday. Despite that, he still made an impact on the game. Lemieux had just one shot on goal but made it count late in the third period. He was able to get the puck past Kaapo Kahkonen and give Los Angeles a 2-1 lead midway into the third period. It was Lemieux's fifth goal of the year. The forward has minimal fantasy value but on Saturday, his timely return from suspension helped give Los Angeles a huge home win.
Brendan Lemieux Scores Again In Los Angeles Defeat
Los Angeles Kings winger Brendan Lemieux scored again on Sunday night versus the Arizona Coyotes. It was the only goal on the night as Lemieux had several scoring chances in less than 11 minutes of ice time. Lemieux had two shots on goal and a blocked shot on the night. That raised Lemieux to five points in his last six games all while playing bottom-six minutes. The question now becomes does the winger finally see an expanded role in the Los Angeles offense? That may happen soon.
Brendan Lemieux Notches Goal and Assists in Defeat
Los Angeles Kings left-winger Brendan Lemieux had just two goals on the year coming into Saturday afternoon. The middle-six forward played over 13 minutes but still made quite the impact. Lemieux scored a goal, added an assist, and had a couple of scoring chances too. In all, he had three shots on goal, delivered three hits, and even took a 27-second shift on the man advantage. Lemieux now has three goals in 11 games for the Kings as he tries to find ways to gain more ice time.
Los Angeles Kings traded for former Rangers forward Brendan Lemieux on Saturday. New York received a fourth-round pick in the 2021 draft. Through 30 games has recorded just two goals and five helpers for his former team. He had 59 total penalty minutes while averaging around 10:13 minutes of ice-time per contest. He had one game-winning goal and 30 shots on goal in his time with New York.
New York Rangers left wing Brendan Lemieux was the team's most productive player in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Boston, factoring in both goals with two assists. Julien Gauthier scored his first career goal and Kevin Rooney notched his third of the season. The fourth line carrying the offense pretty much summed it up for the Rangers. Lemieux and Gauthier have no fantasy value whatsoever, but Rooney has actually hit some form lately with all of his three goals coming across his last five appearances, and he could be a short-term contributor in a deep league, especially with multiple teams on a hiatus and some players without game action.
