Kings goalie Jonathan Quick will miss All-Star game because of injury

Kings goalie Jonathan Quick has a nagging injury that will keep him out of this weekend's All-Star game.

General manager Rob Blake was scheduled to address Quick's status before the Kings played the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night, the final game for the Kings before the All-Star break. Quick's withdrawal from the All-Star game was first reported by Sportsnet.

Per NHL policy, Quick must sit out one regular-season game as punishment for withdrawing. Darcy Kuemper is expected to start Wednesday. It was not known if the Kings would call up another goalie or have Quick dress as the backup.
