Stillman, who leads the team with goals (5), was injured against Atlanta when he was hit and landed face first on the ice. Initially, reports were of facial lacerations and it was unclear whether he would return. Eventually, it came out that Stillman had also suffered a concussion. So, he won't be on this road trip.
Now, if you read Stephen Weiss's blog on the Panthers' site, you saw him write that he's good for tonight:
I got a couple practices in this week and I’m ready to get back in tonight. I feel good.
It’s a big road trip for us. Three pretty good teams we don’t see that often, so we’ll have to be at our best. The last time we played Los Angeles they beat us 6 or 7-0, so we’ve got to make sure we’re ready to play. It’s important we have a good start.
Bryan McCabe also practiced, as did Gregory Campbell, so they could return tonight, while Rostislav Olesz left practice near the end, apparently still feeling the nag of a shoulder injury he suffered in the Atlanta game.
For the Kings, Erik Ersberg will start.
Tonight's game is not on local television. Again. So, if you don't have Center Ice and you can't find a stream online, you won't be able to watch the game. As always however, it will be on 790, so worst case, you can still listen.
