Status report
Howden, a forward, is day to day. … Hill could be available when the Golden Knights play the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday. The goalie, who last played Oct. 20, participated in the morning skate Wednesday. … Perry is not with the Kings to attend to an ill family member. The forward missed games Jan. 7 and Jan. 9 and was designated non-roster playing status for the same reason. … With Perry unavailable, the Kings will use 11 forwards and seven defensemen, with Moverare coming into the lineup. … Armia, Kopitar and Moore had on-ice workouts prior to the Kings morning skate Wednesday, but all three forwards remain out. "Nothing imminent, but nice to see people on the ice," Kings coach Jim Hiller said when asked about their status.
