Line changes confirmed

The Kings’ forwards will indeed skate tomorrow the way they practiced today. Jason LaBarbera will be in goal for his 10th consecutive start. Here’s an initial quote from Terry Murray about the lineup shakeup:

MURRAY: “We’re looking to get some wins and we’re looking to get a consistent level of play from our four lines. I think that whenever you lose three in a row, and especially the game last night, I think it brought a lot of focus to the need for change in personnel on lines and on the special-teams look. We just had a penalty-kill meeting, and we’re trying to get refocused on the attitude we had in the early part of the season, meaning the first five, six games. Last night was just a game where we didn’t get into it, I guess, because of our special teams. Both our penalty kill and our power play seemed to shut down at the same time last night, and we have to bring attention back and we have to get refocused here. We’ve got a huge game tomorrow against a very aggressive and determined team, and we know that we’re going to have our hands full, so we’re trying to bring some focus back to what we need to get done.”
