Kings place Toffoli on IR
by from on (#26WNB)
The Los Angeles Kings will continue to trek on without forward Tyler Toffoli in the lineup.
The 24-year-old - who has missed the team's last two games with a lower-body injury - was placed on the injured reserve on Wednesday, the team announced.
The news is not good for the Kings who are already deprived of goals, having averaged the 20th most in the league at just 2.53 per game. In fact, besides Jeff Carter's 19 goals, no other Kings player has more than Toffoli's eight.
The Kings cling to the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference with the Dallas Stars, Winnipeg Jets, and Nashville Predators - all within two points.
