The Los Angeles Kings have placed goaltender Jonathan Quick on injured reserve, the club announced Sunday.
Quick was initially deemed day to day earlier in the afternoon after sustaining what the team called a lower-body injury in Saturday's practice.
As a result of the IR designation, the netminder will miss at least a week. However, the designation could be retroactive to Friday, when he last played in an overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks.
The Kings recalled Peter Budaj from the AHL on Sunday in a corresponding move.
