Kaliyev scored Los Angeles' only goal in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Edmonton.
It's been a tough season for Kaliyev. He's been a healthy scratch frequently, and the production simply hasn't been there. Thursday's goal, which he got despite only seeing 5:48 of ice time, ended a 19-game run without a point. His upside is extremely limited.

Kings' Arthur Kaliyev: Records helper in win
Rotowire
Kaliyev notched an assist and four shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
Kaliyev set up Pierre-Luc Dubois' second-period marker. The helper was Kaliyev's second over the last four games, both of which have come against the Sharks. The 22-year-old winger continues to hold down a spot on the third line and the second power-play unit, but he hasn't taken much of a step forward this season. He's produced 14 points (four on the power play) through 28 appearances while adding 62 shots on net and a plus-7 rating. That production is right in line with the pace that saw him log 28 points in 56 outings a season ago.

Kings' Arthur Kaliyev: Pots lone goal in loss
Rotowire
Kaliyev scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.
Kaliyev opened the scoring at 9:04 of the first period, but the Kings' only lead of the game lasted just over three minutes before Anthony Mantha tied it up. Kaliyev has shown signs of warming up on offense with two goals and two assists over his last five outings. For the year, the 22-year-old is at 11 points, 37 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 18 contests. His fourth-line role at even strength is discouraging, but he remains part of the second power-play unit, giving him a chance to produce solid offense.

Kaliyev will need to serve the second of his two-game suspension Saturday, so don't expect him to be in the lineup. Once the 22-year-old winger is eligible to play, he should be capable of reaching the 30-point threshold after putting up 28 points in just 56 games last season.
