The Los Angeles Kings acquired Zack MacEwen from the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday in exchange for fellow forward Brendan Lemieux and a fifth-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft.
MacEwen, 26, has recorded nine points (four goals, five assists) in 46 games this season. He had just been activated off injured reserve on Thursday.
MacEwen has totaled 27 points (13 goals, 14 assists) in 176 career games with the Vancouver Canucks and Flyers.

The son of former NHL player Claude Lemieux, he has 63 points (31 goals, 32 assists) in 257 career games with the Winnipeg Jets, New York Rangers, and Kings
Los Angeles made two additional trades on Friday.
In one, they acquired forward Nate Schnarr from the Montreal Canadiens for defenseman Frederic Allard.
Schnarr, 24, played in 27 games this season for the Laval Rocket of the American Hockey League, registering three goals and seven points. He has 75 points (29 goals, 46 assists) with 166 career AHL games.
A third-round pick of the Arizona Coyotes in the 2017 draft, Schnarr has yet to play an NHL game.
