Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - The Los Angeles Kings have placed right wing Justin Williams on injured reserve because of a broken right leg.
Williams was hurt in the first period of Saturday's game against Phoenix and had to be taken off the ice on a stretcher. He was behind the net when teammate Anze Kopitar and Phoenix defenseman Ed Jovanovski collided and fell on top of him.
In 33 games this season, Williams has eight goals and 16 assists for 24 points.

Oh boy, looks like he's gone for quite a while. This is going to be a slight hit, hopefully we can fight through this. Probably looking at him gone for the season.
