NHL General Managers Deal First with Concussions
In Boca Raton at the NHL General Manager's meeting, today's topic is concussions. Despite the lovely weather, the talk is anything but relaxed. Be it accidental, incidental, illegal, or legal, the question is two-fold: how concussions are caused, and what to do about it. Though the official...
I'm Going to Start Using My 6-year-old's Pronunciations of NHL Players' Names
O'Berto La Gwango Sean O'Donald Scott Parts Raw Blake Zabba Gojund and, not a player, but still: General Lombardi (I'm pretty sure he pictures him something like General Grievous.)
Kings 3, Oilers 4
I'm not exactly mad at the outcome of this game. The Kings only get one point as they are snuffed on the shootout by Mathieu Garon. The Oilers grab two points and the Kings take home one. But let's hit the rewind button.First period:- Aubin is in net with Jonathan Quick as his backup. Aubin is up...
Kings 2, Coyotes 4
Before I go into the game tonight, I'd like to give a shout out to all of the people driving north on the 110. Fuck you very much! Why were so many goddamn people on the freeway at 6pm on a Saturday night?First Period:- Starting lineup is Lubo with Modry, with Ratti, Anze, and Zeiler out in front....
Kings 4, Canucks 2
Roster Moves:- Gabe Gauthier was sent back to Manchester- Jeff Giuliano was recalled from Manchester- Thoughts: I thought Gauthier was invisible for his limited time on the ice over the three games he was here; and he was actually a scratch for one of the games. Apparently he wasn't given the...
Hidden Gems – 10 - All-Star Voting

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...
Like a Kid in a VERY Expensive Candy Store
I went to the Kings Game-Used Equipment Sale this morning to see what kinds of goodies were up for grabs. It supposedly started at 10AM, so I went at 10:30 thinking I'd be one of the first people there, but the place was packed. I was going to take a picture of the sale, but I wasn't allowed to. No...

Roadtrip Game 2 - Kings 3, Islanders 1
1st Period:- Ricky Di is on the bench...looking....yummy. But are the Islanders thinking that this'll be an easy 2 points? Did they not watch the game against philly?- Brownie's got 226 hits and leads the NHL by more than 50 hits from the guy in second.- Kings PP - Man, Brad Stuart is making a...
