Some Changes Are in Storr

The Kings will have a slightly different look today against Colorado than they did when they beat the Avalanche on Monday in Denver. Jamie Storr is expected to start in goal instead of Stephane Fiset, who has beaten his former team three times this season but was pulled after two periods in the Kings’ 4-0 loss to Edmonton on Thursday.

The Kings want to give Storr, who gave up one goal in the third period against the Oilers, some game action before the playoffs begin.

Two of the Kings’ forward lines will remain the same: Jozef Stumpel, Glen Murray and Vladimir Tsyplakov in one, Ian Laperriere, Matt Johnson and Dan Bylsma in the other. Ray Ferraro, however, will start off centering a line with Russ Courtnall and Steve McKenna, and Craig Johnson will move from Ferraro’s line to skate with Yanic Perreault and Roman Vopat.
