The LA Kings could be without center captain Anze Kopitar in an upcoming five-game Western-Conference road trip this upcoming week due to a lingering lower-body injury.
In the Los Angeles Kings 4-2 loss at home at Crypto.com Arena yesterday to the Pittsburgh Penguins, Jim Hiller's squad was without center Anze Kopitar and starting goalie Darcy Kuemper.
Kopitar and Kuemper were both out yesterday with various lower-body injury issues this week. Both Kings' veterans also missed at least one day of practice earlier this week with the team.
