EL SEGUNDO, CA — On November 9, forward Brooks Laich earned his first point with the Los Angeles Kings.
Five days later, he would play his last game with them.
Being a healthy scratch four times after that, and with some player personnel changes forthcoming, the writing was on the wall for Laich, who was placed on waivers on November 24. He cleared waivers the next morning, and was, on paper, anyway, assigned to the Ontario Reign of the American Hockey League.
