Audio: LAKI joins Kings Men Podcast; injury updates

PODCAST. Insiders: A new Kings Men Podcast is upon us. This week, Isabelle Khurshudyan of the Washington Post talks Caps, I talk Kings, and actor David Kaye, voice of Megatron in Transformers and Clank in Rachet & Clank, stops by to talk puck as well. It is a glorious 54 minutes.

WE PREDICTED THE FUTURE. As noted during the podcast, which was recorded last night, Marian Gaborik underwent his MRI on Monday, and it was likely that we’d have a general update on the timeframe or severity of the injury by this morning. I don’t have the official results of what the MRI read, but Lisa Dillman spoke with Darryl Sutter, who confirmed that Gaborik is facing a long-term recovery. “Hope to get him back for the playoffs,” Sutter told Dillman. Jonathan Quick’s recovery, as noted in the podcast, is still a day-by-day process as he nears his return. Today’s Verizon Center morning skate should reveal a few additional clues.
