Kings tonight

AT COLUMBUS

When: 4 p.m.

Where: Nationwide Arena

On the air: TV: FS West. Radio: 1150.

Records: Kings 13-13-4; Blue Jackets 9-17-4

Update: Adversity, at every turn. Kings defenseman Willie Mitchell, out because of a lower-body injury, did not practice Wednesday and is considered doubtful for tonight. He had returned to the lineup only Saturday after being out because of a pulled groin. Assistant coach John Stevens, pressed into service after Terry Murray was fired Monday, will be in his second game as the Kings’ interim coach. The Kings have lost five straight games, scoring six goals in that stretch. They scored one goal Saturday against the Dallas Stars and were shut out Tuesday by the Bruins at Boston. It is appearing likely that the Darryl Sutter Kings coaching era will begin early next week.
