Impressive series played against the Blues. 
I was surprised that St. Louis was taken care of so quickly by the Kings...but, give LA lots of credit. They are peaking at the right time.
8 more wins to go for the Kings.

terrible call - plus a missed call on the trip on Callahan.
That being said, I'll be surprised if Rangers make it past the Caps - the Caps come out every game dominating and it takes a while for the Rangers to get going. Could easily be 3-1 caps now if not for some lucky breaks in game 3

Grioux suspended. I only cheer for the Flyers cause my dad is a fan and my team isn't even in the playoffs but I mean seriously Shanahan needs to figure this out and call things consistently or get out. He is proving to be a joke right now.

Shannnnnnnaaaban...is now reading players minds prior to hits?!?!?
Sure Shanny...you know exactly what Grioux was thinking before the hit.
Why not follow the video all the way back to what he had for breakfast, and then based on what he had for breakfast combined with his attitude toward the towel boy in the locker room determine if his intent on the hit was to injure.

Crazy stat:
– Of the 240 minutes in the four-game series with St. Louis, the Kings trailed for only 7 minutes, 42 seconds. Other than the first period of Game 1, the Kings never trailed in the series.

Well okay, not really that weird.
While the Disciplinary Office only wishes it could be close to the credibility of the NFL's, at least hockey's got the parity issue copied well.

What an ending....Washington fans must be so pissed - I know if the Rangers lost like that I would've had a tough time sleeping last night

I like the aggressiveness in the 1st - shooting from everywhere....seems like the power plays took the momentum from them...they should just decline the power plays haha

Kings v Yotes in the West.
Works for me....I like the no timezone change and very short travel distance.
Not to mention both teams will have about the same amount of time off.

Well, I've been wrong about the Kings in 2 straight series. No more.
LA in 6 in a very close series. I expect lots of 2-1 of 1-0 games between these two squads.

I've had the opportunity twice to touch The Cup....and nope....I would not touch it for the world.
When you are a Kings fan, all you know is disappointment.
The only thing that will change that is a Cup.

Anyhow, good luck to LA. I think they have what it takes if they can keep up their level of play.

I think I can speak about heartache just as well as you. I can understand the no-touching the Cup concept, since well, your team never won it...but, the fact rooting for them would cause bad karma is just a bit...too weird for me. Makes no sense.

When you cheer for a team that has won nothing in it's entire history, you think differently.
