LA Kings Prospect Report | Future Series feat. Jordan Spence

Featured Prospect - Jordan Spence

Spence sprung onto the scene when the defenseman tallied the most assists (43) among rookies and the most points by a defenseman (49) among rookies in the QMJHL in 2018-19 season. His point-filled season also earned him the top recognition among rookies by winning the QMJHL Rookie of the Year. Spence followed that outstanding year by then winning the QMJHL's Defenseman of the Year Award (Emile Bouchard Trophy) in 2019-20.
Thus far, as a rookie on the Ontario Reign, Spence has appeared in four games and recorded one assist. The Reign are (4-0-0-0) when Spence has suited up for the team.

Alex Turcotte

The Kings 2019 first-round draft pick (fifth overall) has jumped out of the gates quickly this season for the Reign. With four points (1-3=4) in five games, Turcotte's ability to create plays and scoring chances for he and his teammates has been evident. Highlighted by a three assist game in a 3-2 win over the Bakersfield Condors last week, Turcotte seems to have picked up where he left off last season when he recorded six points (3-3=6) in the final five games of the season.
Ranked as the Kings seventh best prospect according The Athletic's Corey Pronman, Turcotte, the two-way C/LW will look to continue his impressive start to the season and challenge for a Kings roster spot in the coming months.

Brandt Clarke

Despite missing an extended amount of time due to a non-Covid related illness, the Kings 2021 first round draft pick has flourished since hitting the ice. In six games with the Barrie Colts of the OHL, Clarke has tallied nine points (1-8=9) and is just one point shy of the team lead with two less games played. Though a small sample size, the Barrie Colts assistant captain is playing as advertised.

Jacob Moverare

Hailing from Ostersund, Sweden, the 23-year-old left-handed defenseman has been nothing but terrific for the Ontario Reign. In his second season with the club, Moverare currently ranks second on the team in point with five (1-4=5) and has been a staple on the blue line early in the season for John Wroblewski and the Reign coaching staff.

Tyler Madden

Through five games with the Ontario Reign, Madden has recorded three points (1-2=3) and ranks second on the team in shots (15). Madden, a 2018 third round draft pick (VAN) heads into this weekend's games coming off of a two assist game against the San Diego Gulls.
