Breaking News: Kings Sign Henry Brzustewicz To Entry-level Contract, Will Report To Ontario Reign

The Los Angeles Kings have signed another prospect, the team announced Saturday. Los Angeles officially signs Henry Brzustewicz to a three-year entry-level contract deal worth $1 million, according to PuckPedia, and will report to the AHL's Ontario Reign on a PTO deal for the rest of the 2025-26 season. 

Brzustewicz was drafted by the Kings in the first round and 31st overall in the 2025 NHL draft. 

Following his breakout season with the London Knights, Los Angeles decides to sign him to a three-year entry deal after his season with the Knights comes to an end, following elimination from the playoffs.

The defenseman had a great season for the London Knights, recording 19 goals, 35 assists, and 54 points in 59 games. In his fifth season with the London Knights, this is not only the best set of numbers he has ever put up in the OHL, but he's also tied for third in the OHL in goals this season. 

Most importantly for the Kings and Reign, Brzustewicz is a winner, most recently winning back-to-back J. Ross Roberston Cups with the London Knights (2024, 2025) and the 2025 Memorial Cup. 

The Ontario Reign currently leads the Pacific Division with a record of 42-19-3 and 89 points. The 19-year-old will play a big role in the Reign's quest for a Calder Cup. With the playoffs coming up, Brzustewicz's skills will surely live up to what has been an excellent season up to this point.
