Kings Switching Lines. Clune out with Injury.
Alain Vigneault and Terry Murray have been involved in a chess game of line matching and line changing in the Western Conference quarterfinal series. Murray has made the latest move, switching up his second and third lines for Game 6 against the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday.
The top line of Ryan Smyth-Anze Kopitar-Wayne Simmonds will remain intact as it has had its moments, but the second line is now composed of Fredrik Modin-Michal Handzus-Dustin Brown, while the third line will be the Brad Richardson-Jarret Stoll-Alexander Frolov combination. Rich Clune suffered a shoulder stinger in his fight on Friday with Rick Rypien and won't play. The fourth line will be put together from four options: Scott Parse, Jeff Halpern, Justin Williams and Raitis Ivanans.
