Forsberg tore both MCLs in his knees in a scary injury Saturday vs. Edmonton. The 30-year-old goaltender will now miss the rest of the 2022-23 season as he is considered out for at least two-to-three months but will not require surgery. The 30-year-old netminder was 11-11-2 with a 3.26 GAA and .902 SV%.
Forsberg was perfect, stopping all 28 of 28 shots as he beat Montreal for his second shutout of the season in his last start. The 30-year-old struggled early in the year but has picked it up in his last few starts, leading to his 10-10-2 record, 3.09 GAA and .906 SV%. He takes on Montreal again, whose last game was the 5-0 loss to Ottawa which extended their three-game losing skid and handed them their fourth loss in five games.
Turcotte was a healthy scratch for the Kings' previous game but draws back into the lineup Tuesday as they take on Carolina. The 21-year-old has yet to pick up a point and is a -2 plus/minus through three games played so far with Los Angeles this season.

Edmundson played just 2:21 TOI before leaving the game with an upper-body injury. If Edmundson is unavailable for Saturday's game in Ottawa, look for Jonathan Kovacevic to draw back into the lineup as the No.7 defenseman.
