The forward began his 2024-25 season overseas in Finland, playing five games with Liiga’s TPS.

Berge, 21, is beginning his first professional campaign and represented the LA Kings at the 2024 Rookie Faceoff in El Segundo last month. The blueliner finished a four-year junior career in the Western Hockey League (WHL) with the Everett Silvertips last season, posting 25 points in 30 games on three goals and 22 assists during the regular season before adding six points in nine postseason contests on four goals and two helpers.

The 6-5, 205-pound netminder was selected by the LA Kings in the sixth round (175th overall) of the 2018 NHL Draft. A native of Barrie, Ontario, Ingham has played 63 games for the Swamp Rabbits over parts of three seasons, accumulating a 30-23-6 career record with a .909 SV%, 2.73 GAA and four shutouts.
