Alyn McCauley's knee gives in

Grrr, bad news from the Kings' health department. Two-way center and PK specialist, Alyn McCauley will have to go under the knife:

"McCauley will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his knee today and will miss at least two weeks. McCauley had surgery on the knee after last season, and was limited to non-contact drills and skating during training camp. Coach Marc Crawford said an MRI exam Sunday revealed that McCauley had a small piece of cartilage floating in the knee".

That means the Kings up the middle will continue to go with Anze Kopitar, Craig Conroy, Derek Armstrong and adequate fourth line center ;). Too bad - I was hoping to see Alyn with a crown on his chest sooner than in November...
