Kings @ Coyotes – Cursing With Impunity In My Living Room
So there I am, sitting, minding my own business when this guy, all smiles, walks up to my nearly empty aisle and sits down next to Bobby. He grins his goofy grin, the kind that can only mean you aren’t… Read More ›
Angry? Kick The Dog – Kings @ Coyotes Game Talk
*Ring* *Ring* (I haven’t figured out yet how to put the Beverly Hills Cop theme as my ringtone on my iPhone) *Ring* *Ring* (Swipe) “Hello?” “I need you to do me a favor.” “What?” “Write a prayer. The hockey gods… Read More ›
LA Kings @ Phoenix Coyotes Round 3 Game 5 Open Forum – One More Cup Of Coffee
Here we go again, into that dark cold… Um… Unreasonably hot night. The Phoenix Coyotes have, for the second time, their hind legs hanging off a cliff. Shane Doan’s furry paws scratch and claw at the sand to keep the… Read More ›
Phoenix Coyotes @ LA Kings Round 3 Game 4 Open Forum – Clarence Is In The House
Because Vancouver is golfing. Because St. Louis doesn’t know what hit them. Because Phoenix only has one dive left to take. Because our rookies don’t play like rookies. Because our leaders get the job done. Because if you don’t wear… Read More ›
Phoenix Coyotes @ LA Kings Round 3 Game 3 Open Forum – Out Of The Frying Pan
The Los Angeles Kings have left the scorched earth of Arizona, hopefully for the last time. Now in LA, the Phoenix Coyotes enter the fire. Once again we walk into Staples Center, home ice torn from those who feigned to… Read More ›
The Phoenix Coyotes Identity Is Self Evident In Leadership
The propensity of the Phoenix Coyotes towards post scrum shenanigans and their nearly comprehensive habituation as between-whistle nuisances is not a sudden phenomenon. We have seen this team several times this season. We have watched fists and elbows fly, individuals… Read More ›
LA Kings @ Phoenix Coyotes Round 3 Game 1 Open Forum – Halfway Home
The Conference Finals. I like the sound of that. It’s 100 degrees here in Phoenix, perfect hockey weather, just an obvious place to put a hockey team. You know I’ve never been to Phoenix before, or rather, Glendale where this… Read More ›

The Expected & The Unexpected Of Round Two
Now that my head swims less in liquor and more in reason, albeit slightly nauseous reason, I want to reflect a bit on what we’ve seen so far, not just in this Kings/Blues series, but around the NHL in round… Read More ›
Video: Raffi Torres’ Hit On Marian Hossa
First, watch the video of the Torres hit on Hossa. Then, tell me. Was it late (yes), charging (close) and targeting the head (yes)? Are you shocked 4 officials on the ice missed it? Are you shocked the linesman stood… Read More ›
Wayne Gretzky – L.A. Kings General Manager. Fancy or Fantasy?
I have been asked several times, including by Surly most recently, who I believe the next L.A. Kings G.M. should be. I haven’t answered the question directly. Instead, I offered my opinion on who I believe Tim Leiweke will want… Read More ›
The L.A. Kings Just Can’t Finish & I Am Exhausted Watching It
It’s not a fluke. It’s not a streak. It’s not a trend. It’s our fate. Fuck you Dean Lombardi for not drafting and developing a single top 6 forward in 5 years and 10 months. Fuck you for not valuing offense…. Read More ›
