…or something else. Terry Murray stated in the post game interview on the subject of team verses individual play,””Crosby [made an] unbelievable play, breaking through the two defensemen, holding on and making the difference in the game…I’d like to think that we can get a guy like that some day. Maybe Kopi [Anze Kopitar] can [...]
MY FAVORITE WAYNE SIMMONDS’ QUALITY IS…
I cannot compare him to a former King anymore. It used to be…but it isn’t anymore. He does the following things well: Skate, stickhandle, pass, shoot, score, hit and fight. He plays solid, positionally sound defense and a puck possession, intelligent offensive game. Have you seen his plus-minus? Take a look here, I’ll wait… You [...]
ANYONE ELSE SMELL THIS COMING?
Purcell for a 3rd through 5th rounder before the deadline? …or is it still a “package”?
KINGS 4, BRUINS 3, JAMIE KOMPON 0 (OT)
I must say, after the Los Angeles Kings came out flat in the second period, gave up 2 goals quick goals to go down 3-1, and THEN squandered 4:10 of 5-on-4 and 2:40 of 5-on-3 power play time (if my math is correct) during the end of the second and start of the third, I [...]
HEY ANAHEIM FANS…
First of all, YOU SUCK! Second of all, some of you Kings fans do as well. I love my Kings faithful. We are brethren. Sisterhood. Clan. Cult. Allow me to paint a picture. An anxious Kings’ fan awaits a good Kings’ game. It’s been too long. His blood simmers, slowly crusting over into a black [...]
LOS ANGELES KINGS SHUT OUT THE HACKS FROM ANAHEIM 4-0
Wait a second…I’m still enjoying this…yeah. Feels good. So, before tonight’s game I spoke with a good friend (with the only unfortunate handicap of being a Ducks fan) and I told him I hope he enjoys the Kings’ 7-0 victory tonight. He laughed…I was only partially joking. Dustin Brown has played a few head scratching [...]
NEW ILYA KOVALCHUK TRADE POLL!
There is a new lakingsnews.com poll about Ilya Kovalchuk. Click on the POLL tab above and tell us what you think!
IN CASE YOU HAVE BEEN IN A HOCKEY CAVE AND DON’T KNOW ABOUT BURROWS & AUGER
Here is an excellent summary. Incidentally, Burrows was fined $2,500.00. No word yet on Auger.
LAKINGSNEWS’ TOP TEN CREATIVE WAYS TO INCREASE OFFENSE
10. The snow job. Right and left wing rush the net from their respective positions. Each comes to a hard stop and sprays ice (snow) on the goalie. Shot from the point while goaltender is temporarily blinded. Most effective on 1 and 2 man advantages. 9. Dress Ivanans in Kopitar’s jersey, and make similar changes [...]
KINGS DROP THIRD IN A ROW AT HOME, LOSE TO SHARKS 2-1
If I were going to advocate to Dean Lombardi the need for a pure goal scorer, the last three games would be exhibits 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The Sharks came out like they usually do – skating hard and getting scoring chances. They scored early on a harmless looking high shot from the point [...]
IVANANS WON’T FIGHT. GREENE DOES. GREENE INJURED.
Matt Greene’s role on this team is not to fight. He is a physical, stay at home defenseman – one whose value to the team is predominantly in our own zone. Raitis’ Ivanans’ purpose is two-fold: (1) to avoid fights from occurring through his presence and (2) to fight in the place of others when [...]
THIS MAKES ME VERY HAPPY (KOVALCHUK RUMORS ABOUND)
Please oh please. Link to the fourth period. “One well placed source told TFP last night Kings GM Dean Lombardi is traveling to Atlanta to not only scout the team but presumably speak with Waddell face-to-face. “ Legitimate sources (people not associated with hockeybuzz.com) have recently pegged the Kings as going hard after Kovalchuk. In [...]
DA KINGES LOSTH THA GAME
Pardon my blundars. I’m am infected with rot. While the final score tonight was 4-3 Blues, it may as well been 8-0. I have a hard time finding a Kings’ player who had a good game or effectively executed the system. Retrovision being immaculate, it is hard to find a reason why Erik Ersberg should [...]
THE COOLEST KINGS AVATAR YET!
Check this bad boy out Spread the faith Go Kings! (avatar courtesy of hauspaint on hfboards)
KINGS 2 – KINGS 1
For those that cheer the feathered hub cap, the above is not a typo. Your team didn’t win anything tonight. You were handed two undeserved points. Henceforth, your team shall hereinafter be referred to as NTP (“no talent pussies”). Coming into tonight, the Kings were on a mini roll. Our top players were and are [...]
I HATE THE RED WINGS
Because they’re from Detroit. Because Holmstrom’s face is horrifying. Because their jerseys give me epileptic fits. Because they stole Brad Stuart. Because they won Luc his Cup and not us. Because they let Crosby win his Cup. Because Babcock resembles the last syllable of his name. Because Frolov would be a superstar on their team. [...]
