Anze Kopitar - C - Los Angeles Kings
Jan. 5, 2013 - 4:00 PM ET
Anze Kopitar suffered an injury while playing for Mora of Sweden's second division league.
Initial reports suggest that Kopitar's ailment might be related to his knee. "Got tangled up in the corner and it felt funny," Kopitar said. "Precautionary reasons to step off. Taking this seriously." Kopitar is tentatively expected to miss two-to-three weeks and while you should take that timetable with a grain of salt, it does put his status in question for the Kings' season opener if the 2013 NHL campaign is saved at all.
