It's a lower body injury involving a goalie. It's always "a while."

 

[Kingsfan1]

Nolan Patrick here we come !

Nolan Patrick here we come !

Came here to say this.

 

[ShattStar03]

Per Lombardi MRI scheduled for Quick tomorrow/. Oh boy..

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Nolan Patrick here we come !

Awesome. Projected to be a #2 center by Bob McKenzie.

we're gonna find out what Zatkoff is made of. thankfully Budaj cleared waivers

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

So, how much will Winnipeg retain on Pavelec?

 

[fsanford]

I believe the Kings have had a successful run with back up goalies. No reason to think it cannot continue.
Scrivens played so well we got a 3rd round pick for the guy. Too bad he signed in the KHL

 

[KingTrouty]

MRI is protocol with a lower body injury in the area he sustained it (or most sports injuries that require the athlete to leave the game), doesn't mean anything is torn, severely strained/sprained etc.

Please, baby Jesus, let this be something minor.

[KingTrouty]

What do you think, Ziggy? Gut feeling, bro?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Quick probably out until December-January.

Can Zatkoff and the defense keep them from floating above water? That I don't know... there already were tons of question marks heading in to this season, this just adds even more uncertainty to this team.

But we're Kings fans who were long suffering before 2012 and 2014. This isn't anything new for most of us. We witnessed Stephane Fiset and Jamie Storr go down with long groin injuries, both in the same game against the Avalanche in '98 at The Great Western Forum, and they relied on Manny Legace and Ryan Bach. That team wound up missing the playoffs.

As bad as it may seem, I guess we could remind ourselves of how much worse things were. Sadly, that also reminds us of where this team could be headed. Oh the wonders of pro sports.

Damn, this is like when the Dodgers lost Kershaw this year. But the Dodgers had the depth to make up for it. The Kings don't.

 

[Reaper45]

So if Budaj is up for 30 days, which send likely, he'll have to clear waivers again huh?

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Never thought I"d see the name Ryan Bach again. Ziggy with the arrow to the heart

 

[KingPuckChoo]

Kari Ramo? anyone?

 

[The Tikkanen]

While the blow to the Kings losing Quick long term is severe no NHL team has been able to drop in a goalie and have him put up career best numbers like the LA Kings. Wouldn't surprise me to see Zatkoff take the #1 job and be successful.

 

[KingPuckChoo]
