Coulda sworn I saw a Blues player leave his feet giving a hit.

I will stand behind post #330.

Crunch time. LAK being a little careless. And geez Elliot dove. But, I would if I were in this spot too.

Elliott did the Luongo flop, but the refs didn't bite...

 

[pixburgher66]

Empty Net...

There it is...Look what Brown can do for you.

 

[BOSSMANPC]

UMMMMMMMMMMM Yep !!

I was worried when I saw Kopitar celebrate there - Radulov flashbacks.

 

[pixburgher66]

First #8 seed to knock off the #1 and #2 seeds. Wow.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Man, LA is looking unstoppable right now.

Vancouver and St. Louis in only 9 games altogether.

 

[pixburgher66]

The Kings remind me of the '09 Pens, but with better goaltending. Which is saying a lot, because MAF was on acid those playoffs.

 

[BOSSMANPC]

Congrats Kings, you guy's are playing great and good luck.

davnlaguna you owe me man !!!!!!

 

[pixburgher66]

I see LA rolling into the Finals, but that'll be their biggest challenge. They sort of need a long series though. Two short ones is good for health, but I have a feeling whomever they face next will be tons more physical.

CStew with the shhhhh after his fight.
not a fan of the move while down 3-0

I almost called an "LA will win, book it, done", but didn't want to jinx it
(have a bunch of Blues in my pool)

I remember when those Colorado homer announcers were proclaiming Chris Stewart as the next Iginla. One team later and a handful of healthy scratches, I just don't see it happening.

I recall some headscratching when COL basically blasted him out of town for nothing, and
then some insiders (friedman, I think) said there were some very valid off-ice/character reasons.



Congrats Kings fans - your boys are a well-oiled machine right now.




oh yeah.... unsticky this be-yotch!!!

I guess this thread can be unstickied...First time the Kings have ever swept a 7 game playoff series.

Nate helps break the LA morning jinx


Kings get some rest before having to play again.

LA radio guys said this is the first time an 8th seed has beaten a 1&2

LA radio guys said this is the first time an 8th seed has beaten a 1&2

in 9 games combined, that's truly phenomenal
enjoy it, this is a special run.

Congrats Philly west

IMO, Kings are the Cup faves.

IMO, Kings are the Cup faves.

That's probably something the Kings don't want to be. The "Cup Favorites" haven't done well so far this postseason.
