Kings place Quick on LTIR, activate (but don’t play) Greene

jonathanquickbeatgetty

The Los Angeles Kings moved Jonathan Quick from the regular to the long-term injured reserve on Tuesday so they could activate Matt Greene from the IR. Even though he’s not playing against the Montreal Canadiens tonight, either, as LA Kings Insider reports.

Quick hasn’t played since Nov. 12, so the restrictions on eligibility that come with being bumped to the LTIR shouldn’t really be an issue. This would be a far grimmer update if not for the shockingly effective work by Ben Scrivens and Martin Jones.

Greene, 30, will miss his 16th game in a row, but at least he appears to be more or less over his upper-body injury.
