Wednesday skate update

Based on today’s morning skate, it appears that Andrei Loktionov will replace Simon Gagne as Mike Richards’ left winger. Darryl Sutter didn’t announce his starting goalie — “This isn’t baseball,” he reminded a Chicago reporter — but Jonathan Quick was in the locker room first. Sutter also didn’t offer an update on Gagne. Here’s how the Kings are expected to line up…

Richardson-Kopitar-Brown
Loktionov-Richards-Lewis
Penner-Stoll-Williams
Clifford-Fraser-Westgarth

Scuderi-Doughty
Mitchell-Voynov
Johnson-Greene

Quick
Bernier
