Los Angeles Kings – Drew Doughty‘s recovery Timeline

Los⁢ Angeles⁢ Kings‍ defenseman Drew doughty ⁣is facing a recovery period of a few weeks following an injury sustained in Ottawa. While it’s not considered a catastrophic injury,it⁤ will keep him out of the ⁢lineup ⁣for a noticeable stretch.

Here’s what to expect:
