Jarret Stoll is expected to remain on a line between Dustin Brown and Justin Williams going into Game 4.
The Kings shook up their combinations in Game 3 and earned a 3-1 victory over Chicago, so they aren't likely to make any changes. Stoll's promotion will keep top center Anze Kopitar with Dwight King and Trevor Lewis.

Jarret Stoll and Kings coach Darryl Sutter haven't been satisfied with the Los Angeles center's play since he returned from a concussion.
"You know, he's disappointed in himself more than I was in him," said Sutter Tuesday morning. "So I think you'll see a much better Jarrett tonight. It's not easy. He's coming back from a concussion, bottom line. He was pretty much knocked out on his feet. To think you're going to automatically come back in and be 100 percent confident, I don't think it's that easy. He expects a lot of himself. I think he'll be a lot better tonight." Stoll has one assist in nine playoff appearances.

Jarret Stoll (concussion) practiced with the Kings again Tuesday but will not play in tonight's Game 7.
Stoll suffered a concussion on a hit from Raffi Torres in Game 1 of this series against the Sharks and hasn't played since. Stool continues to skate but still isn't ready for contact. He said won't rush anything. "I've had a couple of these - three or four of these before - so it's not a first time, and there's no sense trying to be a hero when you're talking about your brain," Stoll said at practice Tuesday.

Kings center Jarret Stoll, who suffered a concussion on a hit from San Jose Sharks winger Raffi Torres in Game 1 in this Western Conference semifinal playoff series, said Sunday he feels good and will continue to be active as long as he has no recurrence of headaches or other symptoms.
He said there is no timetable for his return."Push it more and more every day, without setbacks. You have a setback, you have to start over again," Stoll said. "Just take it slow." He also said Torres has reached out to him, though Stoll wouldn't discuss what they said. Stoll and Torres were teammates in Edmonton, and Stoll was in Torres' wedding party. Stoll didn't seem to carry a grudge toward his old friend. "It's a game. You play the game, there's hitting and physical play involved. You take that chance," Stoll said. "It was a hockey play and a hit that did what it did. It's over now."
