ONTARIO, Calif. - The LA Kings have loaned forward Samuel Fagemo and defenseman Brandt Clarke to the Ontario Reign, the Kings' primary affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL).

Clarke was originally acquired by the Kings with the eighth overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft. The native of Nepean, Ont., was a member of Team Canada at the 2023 IIHF World Junior Championship and registered eight points (2-6=8) in seven games while helping the team to a gold-medal winning performance that included an assist on the golden goal in overtime.

The 6-0, 200-pound forward has appeared in four games with the Kings this season, as well as four contests with the Nashville Predators. He tallied a goal for Nashville, his third-career NHL strike, before being re-acquired by the Kings on Nov. 11.
Selected by the Kings in the second round (50th overall) of the 2019 NHL Draft, Fagemo has registered 141 points (91-50=141) in 187 career AHL games with Ontario. His NHL career has consisted of 21 games, including 17 with the Kings during the past three campaigns, where he's totaled four points (3-1=4).
