Warm weather region and I'm out playing basketball as my sport. The season's overlap too so....sorry hockey. Fun to watch though.

Moog is a good diehard King fan, but he's more the anomaly than the norm.

Moog? He's from Sacramento. He's constantly complaining about the black disc basketball the NBA keeps using.

And he also doesn't understand why there are suddenly so many white players.

What are you a joking? Icing is what they do the the basketball court so they can play hockey. Then they do it again between periods with the Zamboni.

Not everybody lives in an arctic wasteland like you do

Icing the penalty flag is when they put it in the freezer.

No one here is selling anything. I'm a fan. I diehard that has to post on every single hockey thread in the universe like u... did I claim to be? Find the post. I grew up in the heart of L.A. unlike many outsiders and its all I know and all I follow (except the clippers) :P

Peace bitches! Kings in 5!! See u at the parade!!! Let me know if u need parking... or u can pay 20-30 a pop.


...because it's a strong argument that birthplace guarantees that you will be a die-hard fan of every sports team in the town or your birth.

Unquestionable.
A strong irrefutable argument.

Everybody in L.A. is a die-hard Kings fan.
Last I checked all the bums on skid row were rocking Kings jerseys with Fukufuji on the back and chanting "Lets Go Kings!"




True fans sell the sport, band wagoners...not so much.

...but you are welcome here for the Cup run.....we will see you next time around again too.

The Red Sox bandwagoners killed the team. Beware of the pink hats.

I don't dispute that but...we have our share of idiots. Over there, they'll fight each other. Over here, we'll riot after championship wins.

Or in Vancouver's case, a game 7 loss.

There aren't enough die hard Kings/hockey fans in LA to riot.

Nothing to panic about.

Destiny is still in the Kings' hands. And honestly, it is exactly where most people have seen this series going: 6 games.

The last two games have just been the bounces going NJ's way finally. I mean, how else you going to explain that fluke goal off of that Norris Candidate, Java Toymov?



I'd be surprised, very surprised, if NJ wins tonight.

Fixed.

If any team could implode on a historic scale....it would be the Kings.


...oh and if anyone sees Dustin Brown....let me know, he's been missing since Game 5 of the Phoenix series.

Your team does not wear a blue tree leaf as a logo or are the Chicago Cubs. Don't be ridiculous. And we all know the odds of NJ winning 4 straight are as slim as me admitting to needing a brandname goalie for my Hawks.
