Update: There was some progress to report with defenseman Slava Voynov, who is out because of an upper-body injury. He skated after practice Wednesday but will sit out his second game. Alec Martinez took Voynov’s place Monday against Colorado and played 16-plus minutes. The Kings have killed 27 straight penalties. The Coyotes lead the season series, 2-1, against the Kings and goalie Mike Smith (lower-body injury) came off injured reserve Tuesday.
