Looks like Quick is in net, that's fine, long as Bernier starts tomorrow. Looks like Gagne is out, which is great, because he's been perhaps the most useless player on the ice. Ah, I really have nothing to say about this one. Just want a win. We'll discuss the game when its on, until then, whatever. Taylor Hall looks like a ferret All the Oilers skill doesn't merit A good team, cause defense … [Read more...]

Kings @ Oilers Game Thread
Scribe thinks I'm panicking. Scribe also wishes he had my good looks, so he often likes to pretend what he's thinking is what I'm thinking, hoping for some sort of reciprocal thought-to-looks transference. Want to know how much I'm panicking? I think the Kings will lose tonight. And that's fine. Matt over at Life In Hockeywood asked me and a few other nutbags to participate in a prediction … [Read more...]
Kings Shutout Oilers: Just Enjoy

And So The Last Homestand Of The Regular Season Begins: Open Forum
Well my friends, it's been a fun ride, this regular season. There are only two times where we will attend Staples Center this year and still possibly leave with our larynx intact. After this Thursday, the next time we visit Staples it will be not with our game faces, but with our murder faces. Did you know that if you google "game face" this pops up on the first page? You know why? Because … [Read more...]
LA Kings @ Edmonton Oilers Open Forum: Put Up No Shut Up
The Edmonton Oilers suck. Though winning should be relatively easy, this game must not be taken lightly. Jeff Carter is out, his ankle propped up on the breasts of some bimbo, trickling blood to all the wrong places. While he rests, the Kings are afforded no such luxury. As far as I'm concerned, we are playing the 2002 Red Wings. That is the approach I want to Kings to take. The result … [Read more...]
The Edmonton Oilers Are Like That Ugly, Rich Girl In High School
I do some of my best thinking when I'm angry. So, I was reading about the Oilers and it got me thinking... Did you know this girl in high school? The one you would never date but her daddy was rich, she wore nice clothes, drove a real nice car, was popular and hung out with the "hot" versions of the other rich girls but she came with two major drawbacks - one she was ugly and two she thought … [Read more...]
Well, We’re Fucked
I knew the Edmonton Oilers were a strong offensive team. I admit I am highly envious of their leading scorer, Jordan Eberle, who I just love to watch. I haven't seen much thus far of their second leading scorer, the infant Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. Does anyone else ever imagine that Ted Nugent raped Bernard Hopkins and shat out this kid? A glance at the horrible misfortune of Ryan's underdeveloped … [Read more...]
Slogan Contest Winners
So I'm driving down the streets of LA and I see Kopitar's face looming over a building up ahead. I get elated for a second, the same old vascular inflaming sensation I receive when I think about the Kings, because I'm weird and in love with a stupid hockey team that usually doesn't love me back. They don't love me back. That's the thought that brings me down, one that will be amplified as I get … [Read more...]

Someone Give The Edmonton Journal Something Productive To Do…
Because they are clearly bored out of their minds. Here is their latest gem about Dustin Penner. They claim the photo shows Penner with an unflattering beer belly. First, grow a brain. You cannot possibly tell from an out of focus photo of a player wearing equipment whether or not he has a gut...by gut, I mean a "beer bellyish" gut, to coin the grammatically challenged writer who quoted the … [Read more...]
Ethan Moreau, Is It?
So you already know by now that the Kings have essentially signed Ethan Moreau to a 1-year, $600,000 contract. Technically he has not signed yet, but rather reached an agreement with the Kings on a contract to sign in the next day or two. You should also know plenty about Moreau. At 36 years old (come the start of training camp) Ethan is a 16 season NHL veteran, with 900 games under his belt. … [Read more...]
COLIN FRASER INJURED; TAMBELLINI IS A PRICK II
As a sequel to Steve Tambellini is a Prick, Part I, we bring you the sequel co-starring Colin Fraser. Colin Fraser, acquired by the LA Kings in the Ryan Smyth does his impression of Lassie and runs home trade, has an injury that will keep him out of the lineup...for the first two months of the season. The injury is allegedly more serious than just the inherent psychological defect associated … [Read more...]
TOP 10 REASONS STEVE TAMBELLINI IS BEING A PRICK
So, the LA Kings have a deal worked out with the Oilers regarding Ryan Smyth. A 4th (or 5th) + Gilbert Brule's salary before he is bought out. It hits a snag. Why? Because Steve Tambellini and the Oilers haven't submitted the necessary paperwork to clear Brule so Lombardi can turn around and buy him out. Now, ask yourself this - why the hell does Brule even need to be in this deal? It's not like … [Read more...]
ITS OFFICIAL – RYAN SMYTH IS GOING TO FREEZE HIS ASS OFF NEXT YEAR
The trade is done, per Darren Dreger at the draft. It would seem some complications arose this morning, with the original deal being to Calgary pending Smyth's approval. Ryan preferred Edmonton (Duh) and allegedly asked Oiler GM Steve Tambellini to up his offer to beat Calgary's. The result is a 4th round pick and former boom hopeful, now nearly bust, winger Gilbert Brule. Now, Dreger is … [Read more...]
LA KINGS POST GAME: KINGS BEAT OILERS 2-0 IN THE FIRST GAME OF THE NEW SEASON
The team on the other end of the ice didn't matter. Oilers or Red Wings, east coast or west. The LA Kings' opponent wore our colors, numbers and crest. They were us, or more specifically, the space between our ears. The first game of the new season commenced tonight in Edmonton. Coincidental if for no other reason that the Oilers presented the perfect opportunity to do everything wrong, let up and … [Read more...]
