“Any time you have two players out of their lineup, it’s very unfortunate for the game, first of all," Kings coach Terry Murray told LA Kings Insider ahead of Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, who continue to be minus superstars Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. "The National Hockey League needs the premier guys in the game and playing at their best. It’s what it’s all about. It’s entertainment. It’s exciting for the NHL and for the fans, and it’s great for us to come in, as a visiting team, and to (face) the best lineup. You never want to see anybody hurt, but certainly not the premier guys in the game. It’s very unfortunate. Hopefully they will get back quickly. Then, on the other side of it, when those two players are out of the lineup, you have to make sure that, emotionally, that you’re going in with the right attitude, not backing off the gas pedal at all. These are very important games for the L.A. Kings, and we have to come out and play the same game, as hard, intense and focused as if they had a full healthy line up"
