[podsox]

looks like the nba playoff schedule. far too many days between games imo

 

[The Q stache]

Can't wait for Sunday!

 

[davnlaguna]

Hoping to get home in time for the first period

 

[mattola]

Can't wait for Sunday!

welcome back mate, good to see you around. hope its been fun so far

 

[Cobiemonster]

It will be interesting to see how this series goes the first few games, three games in just the first seven days of the series - wonder how that will affect the physical play, maybe the Kings try to ramp it up early on in the series? Or maybe they save a bit for later in the series? Who knows, for a team that's physical like the Kings are, not having many games in a short amount of time early in this series might help

would LOVE to see a LA/NY final......The Kings are second Fav team

Hopefully he's not there playing only five minutes, they'll need him to play more than that

By the way, Aaron Ward, you're no longer a NHL player, you don't need to grow a beard during the playoffs especially when you're going to be on tv and appear to have just ended a 3 day bender.

Let's do this!

Appear to?

Nice sell by Brandon Bollig which leads to a power play goal

 

[higgyfan4]

Wonder which Blackhawk will get suspended this round? My bet is Keith. Or Bickell.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Blackhawks lead 1-0 after one period - Kings need to stay out of the box and continue getting some good chances like they did in the first

Depends on which one hits Dustin Brown.

Or, well whoever is near him when he falls like a bag of flour.

Refs penalized the wrong team on that play - Bollig should have been sent to the box for unsportsmanlike conduct (diving).

Why don't you watch the video of that, otherwise you look like a dumbass
