Going into this past weekend, the Monarchs had three away games left to play and a lot of ground to cover. Frankly, I was worried. Every streak comes to an end, so knowing that the guys were rolling into a threesome riding a four-game winning streak had me shitting bricks. Especially because just like last weekend’s trifecta (of awesome), these were games they needed to win. So what the hell … [Read more...]
Monarchs Ménage a Trois – Tigers, Whales and Bears. Oh my?
As I sit in the stands watching the Monarchs warm up before their dance with the Sound Tigers, I hope that the demons of their shootout loss to the WBS Penguins on Sunday is out of their heads. After having an early lead (3-0 at one point), they gave up the farm and eventually the game in the third. Softy goal Jones strikes again. And damn you and your shootout voodoo, Zatkoff! You better have … [Read more...]
Monarchs @ IceCaps – Frozen Wasteland Boogaloo
First things first, congrats to our Kings for winning five straight! I was tuned in to the game last night against the Red Wings, and I’m pretty sure I giggled when Kopi played Howard like a fiddle. You can’t give Anze that amount of time and space. He will rock your world. That move kinda rocked mine, too. Not gonna lie. So this past weekend, the Monarchs managed to come away with two … [Read more...]
Monarchs @ Sound Tigers – A Frenetic Flurry of Feline Fury

The story of last night’s game? The Monarchs stepped up and filet’ed … [Read more...]

KINGS ROOKIE CAMP VIDEOS – DAY 2
Before we get to the plethora of moving and jittery images, I want to be up front in that I think this batch pales in comparison to yesterdays viewing. Not as a result of the drills or the prospects themselves, on the contrary I saw a lot of good things out of many players today, and enjoyed the different set of drills the coaches employed. However whereas yesterday's camp took place on the … [Read more...]
