The Los Angeles Kings reduced their training camp roster to 34 players on Saturday, kicking 18 out of the mix. The biggest name, at least from a “social media impact” standpoint was Paul Bissonnette, aka “BizNasty.”

Here is the full list, via the Kings:

Assigned to Ontario (AHL):

Justin Auger – RW Patrik Bartosak – G Jonny Brodzinski – C Nic Dowd – C Nick Ebert – D Kevin Gravel – D Adrian Kempe – LW Maxim Kitsyn – LW Zachary Leslie – D Alex Lintuniemi – D Kurtis MacDermid – D Alex Roach – D Scott Sabourin – RW Valentin Zykov – RW

Released from Pro Tryout:

Sean Backman – RW Paul Bissonnette – LW Ryan Horvat – LW Kevin Raine – D
