| April 30, 2025 | Ward, Andre Lee, Francesco Pinelli, Jack Studnicka, Caleb Jones and Pheonix Copley were called up from AHL Ontario on Wednesday. - Ontario was eliminated from the 2025 Calder Cup playoffs, so there was no reason to keep these players on the minor-league roster. Barring some serious injury issues on the Kings' part, Ward, Lee, Pinelli, Studnicka, Jones and Copley are unlikely to play for Los Angeles during the postseason, but they'll soak up the playoff atmosphere and participate in practices. | None |
| April 17, 2025 | Head coach Jim Hiller said that Ward will be called up by the Kings on Thursday to make his NHL debut during the team's regular-season finale against Calgary, Russell Morgan of Hockey Royalty reports. - Ward has made 65 appearances for AHL Ontario this season, recording 12 goals, 14 assists and 61 PIM. The Kings are expected to rest several players ahead of the postseason Thursday, so Ward will be able to get his first taste of NHL action before presumably returning to the minors. | None |
| Oct. 4, 2024 | Ward was placed on waivers by the Kings on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Ward signed a two-way deal with Los Angeles in May and should head to the minors if he goes unclaimed on waivers. The 26-year-old hasn't yet made his NHL debut, and he'll likely spend most, if not all, of this year in the minors. | None |
| May 24, 2024 | Ward agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Los Angeles on Friday. - Ward has yet to make his NHL debut, having spent the past three seasons playing exclusively in the minors with AHL Ontario. The 26-year-old winger did set new personal bests with the Reign this season, recoding 11 goals and 21 helpers before adding seven points in eight postseason contests. With his new deal in hand, Ward should be in the mix to make his debut during the 2024-25 campaign, though he is unlikely to be a full-time NHL option. | None |
| June 30, 2023 | Ward inked a one-year, two-way contract with LA on Friday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site - Ward had nine goals and 26 points in 71 AHL contests with Ontario in 2022-23. The 25-year-old forward hasn't played in the NHL and is likely to start next season in the minors. | None |
