Report: Prust to attend Kings’ training camp on PTO

Brandon Prust is apparently getting another shot at playing in the NHL.

The veteran forward will attend Los Angeles Kings training camp on a professional tryout, the club confirmed to Fox Sports West's Jon Rosen on Friday.

Prust spent last season in Germany playing for the Nuremburg Ice Tigers, with whom he potted three goals and eight points while racking up 67 penalty minutes in 29 regular-season games. He also added six points in 11 playoff contests.

He was invited to Toronto Maple Leafs camp on a PTO last August and skated with the team into November before deciding to head overseas.

The 33-year-old last appeared in the NHL with the Vancouver Canucks in 2015-16, after spending six seasons split between the Montreal Canadiens and the New York Rangers.

Prust also played for the Calgary Flames and the then-Phoenix Coyotes earlier in his career.

He was a third-round pick of the Flames in 2004.
