Best I can tell Richards last shift was at the end of the 2nd and there was nothing eventful about it. May be resting or fell ill.

Mike Richards not getting shifts in the third period for #LAKings - no word on reason. Sitting on bench with gloves off.

If it was serious he wouldn't be on the bench.

Depends on your meaning of serious, I'd say anything that hinders him going into what will be a physical series is pretty serious.
