The Los Angeles Kings have been hit with 2 key injuries on defense – Matt Greene and Jake Muzzin. LA Kings Insider reports that both were injured in the pre-season game against the Colorado Avalanche. Muzzin’s injury happened on a big hit from Blake Comeau and we’re still not sure how Greene went down.
The injuries are listed as “day-to-day” with not a lot of detail being shared publicly. What we have to wonder is how this affects the backend of the Kings. If these injuries last into the first few weeks of the season, that creates great question mark and great opportunity for some young guys trying to make the team.
