Surly called me up from wherever the fuck he is with his fiance to tell me he has a transcript of a call between Dean Lombardi and Don Meehan. So I asked him... Me: What, from the summer? What the fuck am I supposed to do with that now? Surly: No, dumb shit. From a couple of nights ago. I must have forgotten to take the tap off Lombardi's phone and when I checked out the recorder and … [Read more...]
Chad LaRose Anyone, Part II?
December 21, 2011 By
On September 8, I wrote the L.A. Kings need a legitimate third line wing to replace Wayne Simmonds. At the time, I coveted Carolina Hurricanes left wing, Chad LaRose because I was not drinking the Ethan Moreau Kool-Aid and, as I wrote then, I asked if you were. Surly was drinking some of that but, then again, you put almost anything in front of him and he will empty the glass in no time. I … [Read more...]

L.A. Kings vs. Detroit Red Wings: It Took Everything I Had…
November 19, 2011 By
When I was younger, I had a temper. Plenty of 5 minute majors. You get older, wiser, less willing to let the emotions get the better of you. Tonight was a poor example of the latter. I am not an over the top staunch patriot but there is a certain minimum level of respect I expect. When you are asked to please rise and remove any hats for the National Anthem, I expect at least that. A punk 20 … [Read more...]
L.A. Kings’ Russian Invasion
November 14, 2011 By
Good things come in threes. The Kings score a bunch of goals. Andrei Loktionov gets called up. And now, most likely, Slava Voynov will be back. Unfortunately, when they say good things come in threes, they neglect to mention that for every yin there is a yang. Penner is hurt. He may be under-performing, but we don't go so far as to wish ill on anyone... OK, well maybe a quick bout … [Read more...]
Rob Scuderi Is A Funny Guy
October 13, 2011 By
As I read this article from fellow blogger, The Mayor, I had flashbacks of... Tommy DeVito: You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny? … [Read more...]
Ethan Moreau, Is It?
August 20, 2011 By
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...]
