Thursday skate update; lines set

Here’s how the Kings’ forwards are expected to line up tonight against Vancouver…

Gagne-Kopitar-Williams
Penner-Richards-Brown
Clifford-Stoll-Hunter
Moreau-Fraser-Lewis

That means Brad Richardson will be a healthy scratch for the first time. Terry Murray said he thought Hunter would be able to bring more of a threat on offense, so essentially Lewis got the call over Richardson, even though neither has a goal this season. More notes and quotes from the skate to come.
