The family of Kings forward Trevor Lewis had traveled to Los Angeles in anticipation of his 1,000th career game, but the plans fell through.
A celebration was obviously planned to highlight this important feat of arms on Wednesday, especially since the 37-year-old veteran has not had it easy during his long career. Except that the worst happened during his meeting number 999, Saturday.

The Kings faced the Ottawa Senators for the occasion. In the first half, Lewis suffered a lower body injury and had to leave the game. Los Angeles later confirmed that he would have to sit out for a period of four to six weeks.
It’s only a postponement for the 1000th duel for the 17th overall pick in the 2006 draft, who should return to play in January.
This season, he amassed seven points in 25 games, reaching the 100-goal mark in the process.
