From the looks and sounds of everything, all Kings players made it through Day 1 of training camp cleanly, sans defenseman Angus Booth.
Late in the first period of Thursday’s scrimmage, Booth went hard into the boards down low and immediately began writhing in pain. The 21-year-old rearguard had to be helped off the ice without putting any pressure on his right leg.
Later in the afternoon, coach Jim Hiller was unable to provide an update on his status. Although Booth will not be available today, we’ll have to wait for further information.
Clearly, it wasn’t the start he had hoped for.
Today will mark Day 2 of LA Kings Training Camp, in advance of their 2026-26 NHL season.
Similar to yesterday, things will begin this morning with a practice session for Group B. It’s important to explain that 58 players have been divided into three groups and those groups will change daily. Thus, the list below is only applicable for Day 2.
