Kings rule out Matt Greene for the rest of the regular season
Los Angeles Kings defenseman Matt Greene (shoulder) will not return before the end of the regular season.
Greene is on the long-term injured reserve list and underwent surgery on December 3. He hasn't played since October 13.
Greene makes a limited impact offensively, notching just five goals and 10 assists over the past two seasons. Our projections give the Kings a 99.52 percent chance of making the playoffs, so Greene may be able to contribute in the postseason.
