Head coach Jim Hiller and the Los Angeles Kings have been shorthanded on the blue line with defensive depth in the past week or so in training camp and the preseason this fall. The Kings had two defensemen, Kyle Burroughs and Joel Edmundson, miss multiple days of practice due to various reasons.
Los Angeles Kings place defenseman Kyle Burroughs on injured reserve this weekend
Burroughs missed the Kings' past two preseason games in the past week against the Mammoth and Anaheim Ducks in the preseason finale on Saturday afternoon (Oct. 4). Edmundson was active for the Kings' preseason finale yesterday against the Ducks in the 5-4 overtime win at Crypto Arena.
