Waldorf must've fainted 3 times so far.


Although, the Kings need to send a nice bottle of champagne to the refs for missing Stoll and his attempt to take off Gionta's head.

Glad to see the Kings add to the banner count at Staples.

That's 4 championships for LA in the last 4 years. Good run.

^^Thursday according to LA Times. Similar route as the early 2000s Lakers championships parades, ending at Staples. They'll be using the double-decker buses, like the Lakers did.

The Stanley Cup champion Kings will take part in a parade scheduled for Thursday in downtown Los Angeles.

The parade will start at noon near 5th and Figueroa, proceed south on Figueroa and end between L.A. Live and Staples Center. Players and their families, coaches and others are expected to ride in double-decker buses and other vehicles, officials said.

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.


w/e u say princess. don't forget ur tiara for the newly crowned KINGS parade on Thursday.

Congrats Moogelino!

Hope you don't wake up this morning with too severe headache, your team certainly will. See you in about three months to gett'r going again.


Oh, and congrats for officially inheriting the mantle of stanley cup frustration and forlorn desire.

Nah, that cup weighs 34.5 lbs, silver is going for about $28 per ounce. That things worth at least $15,000 as long as the prices hold up. Might even be worth more if they hold onto it for a while.

Things that cannot be said any longer about the Los Angeles Kings:


Dustin Penner trade was a huge bust.

Jeff Carter can't score in the playoffs.

Darryl Sutter was the wrong hire.

Dustin Brown is not captain material.

THE KINGS HAVE NEVER WON THE CUP!

Dean Lombardi can't build a championship team.

Quick can't win the big games.

Doughty will never re-live his Norris candidate form.

The Kings will miss Jack Johnson

An 8th seed has never won the cup!

Waldorf's still on Cloud 9. It'll take him a few days/weeks to come back down.



Enjoy it dude.

And let's hope we don't get a stupid lockout come Fall.

So, can we officially start the Leaves' Cup Watch?



I think all the long-time sufferers in this thread have had their thirsts quenched with recent Cup wins...except for dom. So, maybe it's his turn...sometime soon.

How long do you think the torch will burn for? Cuz, we don't want it getting dark on the poor guy like after a few years.
