Kings Top Prospect Reveals the Debilitating Injury He Was Forced to Play Through

Last year, this LA Kings prospect played through some serious injuries in order to stay in the lineup, and he has just revealed how debilitating they were.

Quinton Byfield was selected 2nd overall in the 2020 NHL entry draft by the LA Kings, and it is safe to say that he is one of their top prospects. Last year, he suffered some injuries but battled to stay in the lineup for 53 games. During that time, he was able to score 3 goals and 19 assists for 22 points.

Byfield spent some time between the Kings and their affiliate AHL team the Ontario Reign in an effort to rehabilitate and stay in game shape.

In a recent interview with The Hockey News, Byfield revealed the extent of his injuries and just how bad they were during the season.

While Byfield is definitely one tough player, it is unfortunate that he had to battle such a tough injury in order to stay in the lineup. His performance last year was clearly a battle, and he should be poised to have a stellar upcoming season.
