Kings to Miss Greene

News came down on Thursday afternoon that Kings defenseman Matt Greene underwent shoulder surgery recently, which is expected to have a rehabilitation time of three months. Greene, a roster player for the Kings, had 9 points in 75 games for the Kings in 2010, which doesn't exactly make him a good fantasy pick, but does weaken the defensive structure of the team a little bit. Three months from now suggests that Greene should be back for the end of October, which could be anywhere between 9 to 11 games away. If Greene can hit the 10-game mark, they could save a month's worth of cap hit from their books, although that's a silver lining to not having him in the line-up.
