Kings Winger Kevin Fiala Undergoes Follow-up Surgery for Broken Leg Sustained During Olympics

The Kings did not announce a recovery timeline after Fiala’s leg surgery, leaving the winger out for the start of camp.

  • Kings forward Kevin Fiala underwent follow-up surgery on Thursday for a broken leg sustained during the Milan Cortina Olympics, and will miss the start of training camp.
  • The injury occurred February 13 while Fiala played for Switzerland, when a collision with Canada forward Tom Wilson fractured his left femur, forcing him off the ice.
  • Since being acquired from the Minnesota Wild in June 2022, the 30-year-old winger recorded 18 goals and 22 assists in 56 games last season for Los Angeles.
  • Fiala missed the second half of the NHL season and the playoffs following the February injury, and the Kings did not announce a recovery timeline for his return.
  • Los Angeles plays its season opener at the Colorado Avalanche on September 30, a rematch of the four-game sweep that marked the Kings' fifth straight first-round exit.
