No practice tomorrow; introduction Wednesday

The Kings will not practice tomorrow, as they have their scheduled family Christmas party. The Kings are expected to officially announce the hiring of Darryl Sutter as coach sometime tomorrow. Sutter is expected to run Wednesday’s practice, scheduled for a 10:30 a.m. start, and then the Kings will have an introductory press conference with Sutter and Dean Lombardi. Sutter’s first game will be Thursday at home against Anaheim (reminder: it’s a 7 p.m. start).
