EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) – Defenseman Robyn Regehr has been placed on injured reserve by the Los Angeles Kings with an upper-body injury.
The defending Stanley Cup champions recalled Jeff Schultz from the AHL on Friday after the latest significant setback for the Kings’ defensive corps.
Regehr was hurt during the second period of Los Angeles’ 6-4 comeback victory over St. Louis on Thursday. He is likely to be out at least two weeks with the unspecified injury.
The Kings’ patchwork lineup is a significant factor in their intermittent defensive struggles this season after winning the Jennings Trophy last season.
Regehr, Alec Martinez and Jake Muzzin all missed significant stretches of the season with injuries. Slava Voynov will miss his 28th straight game Saturday under suspension after his arrest on a felony domestic violence charge.
