Here are the latest updates I can share based on recent reporting:
- Anton Forsberg signed a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Kings in mid-2025, worth about $2.25 million per season, to provide backup goaltending behind Darcy Kuemper [source: The Hockey Writers, 2025-06-30; corroborating coverage from The Hockey News and related outlets in 2025–2026 notes Forsberg’s role behind Kuemper as the season progressed].[1][3]
- Forsberg had a notable stint with the Kings, including a game where he shut out his former team (Ottawa Senators) after leaving Ottawa in free agency, underscoring his impact as a cooling presence behind the starter lineup.[2]
- Through early 2026, Forsberg has been cited as a reliable veteran option for Los Angeles, with multiple reports highlighting his stretch of solid goaltending and occasional starting opportunities due to injuries or rotations in the Kings’ lineup.[3][4][9]
If you’d like, I can pull the most current daily headlines or summarize Forsberg’s recent game log and stats from the Kings’ current season. I can also set up a quick one-page snapshot with his save percentage, GAA, and win-loss record over the latest 10–15 games. Would you prefer a concise stats sheet or a narrative roundup of the latest news?
