If Ingram's set to play, will his point streak continue? The Utah Hockey Club has announced that defenseman Sean Durzi will return to the lineup on Saturday against his former team, the Los Angeles Kings. Utah head coach Andre Tourigny confirmed the news today when he met with the media. Durzi has been out of the lineup for 52 games after suffering a shoulder injury in mid-October. He has four appearances this season, in which he has registered two assists with seven penalty minutes. Utah finds itself in the thick of the Western Conference wild-card race, and getting Durzi back in the lineup will be a major boost. With only two weeks until the NHL trade deadline, Utah will only have a handful of games to determine if they are going to sell off assets or buy pieces to make a push for the playoffs. The return of Durzi will be as big as a trade acquisition for Utah. He will be facing off against his former team, the Kings, who traded him to the Arizona Coyotes in 2023. However, he was originally drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Maple Leafs traded him to the Kings in the Jake Muzzin trade in 2019. He has since become an everyday NHL player and a very important piece of Utah's blue line.
