Quick vs. LaBarbera [UPDATE post-Thrashing]
[UPDATE: after last night's 7-0 fun fest, I thought I would revisit Q's numbers to see where he stands vis-a-vis LaBarbera. The post has been altered accordingly:] Halfway through Quick's next game, he will have played exactly the same number of minutes LaBarbera played for the Kings last season. Q...
So This Is What The Basement Feels Like
Pre-game:I took in this game not up in the 300 section or on the radio, like usual, but in the 100 section. KQ and her family had an extra ticket on their hands and were extremely gracious in inviting me to sit with them. It was unbelievable to be sitting 13 rows back from the glass. So, much love...
Q&A With Jason LaBarbera
I was at the Toyota Sports Center today for the Kings practice and I caught Kings' netminder Jason LaBarbera and he agreed to answer some questions.First, some thoughts on their practice:- Caught my first glimpse of Teddy Purcell. He looks like he's fitting in well with the group. He's got a slick,...
Year-In-Review – 3 – Jason LaBarbera
(Bernstein Associates/Getty Images)Good Ole BarbsI’m not sure how to really tackle the goalie situation because there are seven (7) to talk about. Perhaps I'll speak of them by tandem…or however I feel like it. But let’s first review the goalies that have guarded our poor pipes this season. For how...
Wow! That Kinda Sucked!
The Aves were in town and I honestly thought this was gonna be an easy win for the Kings. WOW, was I wrong. After 5 unanswered goals, the Kings lose 5-2. Let's take a little trip down memory lane, shall we?Ahh Staples Center, how I love the bright lights, parking lot dudes with red flags, and bums...
Kings 2, Ducks 3
I'm not going to begin this game re-cap with the rage I was feeling at the end of the game. Rather, I'll let the rage build up to the Kings loss tonight.Pre-game- I was skeptical with watching this game on the Anaheim telecast because of the negative comments that I've heard about Brian Hayward's...
Kings 2, Sharkies 1
So I turn the TV on to FSN for the start of the Kings game. What do I see instead but a WSU/WASH game in the last 5 minutes, which they've decided to show until the end since it's tied 35-35. What the hell!! I have to wait for this to be over before I can see my Kings whomp on the Sharks? With each...
Another Lackluster Performance
Looking back on this game as a whole, I think the best part for me was the pregame interview with Cammy. When Patrick O'Neil asked him about the lines and what they might look like, he got a huge smile on his face and said that things would be looking a bit differently. In reference to the Coyotes,...
A Not So Surprising Trade
I had a feeling something was going to happen between Monday's game against Columbus and this Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. To say that I knew there was going to be a trade going down would be a total fabrication; rather, I just thought four days was too long for a team to sit...
Kiss Barbie Goodbye?
As I mentioned in the previous post, it's highly unlikely that Jason Labarbera is going to be re-signed this summer. Labarbera believes that he can play a lot more minutes as a goalie on another team, as he won't get much in Vancouver riding shotgun to Luongo. In his own words: “I love it...
