Injury updates

I’ll just let Terry Murray run through them here…

(on Jack Johnson’s prognosis…)
MURRAY: “After our break, we play a game on the 26th, Everything should be in pretty good shape by that time.”

(on whether Jarret Stoll might be able to play tomorrow…)
MURRAY: “I don’t know that right now. I’ll probably get a better idea after everyone is finished up here today (getting evaluated), how he’s feeling. I hope that he’s able to get on the ice for the morning skate tomorrow, and then it will probably be one of those game-day decisions, as we get closer to the start of the game.”

(on calling up Alec Martinez…)
MURRAY: “He will arrive here this evening and probably will be in the lineup tomorrow.”

To make room for Martinez, the Kings put Wayne Simmonds on injured reserve, basically a bookkeeping move to create a roster spot.
