Status report

Each team held an optional morning skate. ... Edmundson will be a game-time decision, Kings coach Jim Hiller said; the defenseman played 14:51 in a 5-4 shootout win at the St. Louis Blues on Saturday. ... Hiller said is is "hopeful" that Kopitar could return sometime during Los Angeles' five-game road trip that concludes at the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday; the center will miss his 10th straight game. ... Connors, a center, was recalled from Ontario of the American Hockey League on Monday. ... Edvinsson is expected to be out until the Olympic break, but should be ready to return when the Red Wings resume play, coach Todd McLellan said Monday; the defenseman will miss his third consecutive game.
