But you know, you take a look around the league, there's all kinds of injuries to top players. You've got to deal with it. It's part of the game."

Our View: The injury bug continues to hit the NHL hard, and now it has taken one of the Kings' best players. Smyth came over to LA in a trade during the offseason, and they will need him to come back strong if they are going to make a playoff push. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nhl/Ryan_Smyth/647203 647203 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:18:02 EDT fanball.com 4 days 40 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nhl/Ryan_Smyth/647203 Smyth (upper body) will miss Wednesday's game and will see a team doctor for further evaluation, the LA Kings Insider reports.

Preissing came over to Colorado as part of the Ryan Smyth trade in the offseason.

Our View: Preissing is coming off a knee injury, and coach Joe Sacco hasn't decided whether or not he will play tonight. He is coming off a terrible year last season, but the potential is there, as he scored 38 points and finished tied for the league lead with a plus-40 rating for the Senators in 2007. Don't expect a repeat of that 2007 season, but he has something to prove and could be a nice addition to the Avs' blue line. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nhl/Ryan_Smyth/639260 639260 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 8:36:01 EDT fanball.com 8 days 6 hours 22 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/nhl/Ryan_Smyth/639260 News: Kings LW Ryan Smyth tallied a goal, assist and finished at plus-1 during Wednesday's game against the Hurricanes.
