Copley to Miss Minimum of 10 Games, David Rittich Steps in as Backup

Pheonix Copley, goaltender for the Los Angeles Kings, has been placed on long-term injured reserve due to a lower-body injury.
The injury occurred during a practice session on Friday and Copley did not join the team for their Saturday victory over Seattle.
Being on long-term IR means Copley will miss a minimum of 10 games.
Copley has a record of 4-1-2 with a 3.16 goals-against average in eight starts this season.
David Rittich will serve as the backup goaltender during Copley's absence.
