Report: Kings looking to bolster blue line

The Los Angeles Kings are looking to bolster their blue line by, at the very least, adding a depth defenseman on the right side, reported TSN's Pierre LeBrun on Thursday's edition of "Insider Trading."

Drew Doughty and Sean Walker - two of the Kings' top defensemen - both suffered significant long-term injuries this season. Doughty is expected to miss six-to-eight weeks with a knee ailment, while Walker is out for the entire season with a torn ACL and MCL.

The Kings currently have $161,000 in cap space, per CapFriendly. Placing Walker on long-term injured reserve will give Los Angeles an additional $2.65 million in space.
