Kings Sweep Blues, Conference Finals Next
Posted on 7 May 2012 by Eric Cooney.
The Los Angeles Kings are on fire. On Sunday afternoon, they completed a series sweep of the 2nd seeded St. Louis Blues en route to their second Conference Final in franchise history. For Kings fans that have endured many lean years, it's time they enjoy these fat times. Is that appropriate to say? Not a shift goes by that Kings fans aren't thankful for the ride their team has taken the...

5 Reasons No One Should Be Surprised By the Kings
Posted on 29 Apr 2012 by Eric Cooney.
The Kings are playing quite well for the 8th seed in the West. They toppled the 1st seed Vancouver Canucks, who just won their second straight President's Trophy. I know it's just 1 game into the 2nd round against the 2nd best team in the West (and league, really) but the Kings Game 1 road victory poses some questions. How is this 8th seed so good? I know it's not the first time an 8th ...

My Totally Biased Kings/Blues Preview
Posted on 27 Apr 2012 by Eric Cooney.
Defying all the critics, the Kings downed the President's Trophy winning Vancouver Canucks in just 5 games. Now they move on to the second best team in the West, the St. Louis Blues. The Blues also had a mid-season coaching change that turned them in the right direction. Ken Hitchcock turned the Blues into a defensive stalwart. They managed to beat out old favorite Detroit, recent Cup w...

The Long Pause…
Posted on 20 Apr 2012 by Eric Cooney.
Waiting sucks. A lot. That's what every fan, Canucks and Kings alike, are enduring right now. A full 4 days in between games (from puck drop to puck drop). So while we wait and marinate for the next game in Vancouver, here are some random thoughts based entirely in my own head and not necessarily backed by any facts or stats. (more…)

Posted on 9 Apr 2012 by Eric Cooney.
The Los Angeles Kings finished off their miraculous late season push on a bit of a tough skid, dropping their last 2 contests to the San Jose Sharks, both games in OT or shootout.

Clowe Plays Puck from Bench
Posted on 6 Apr 2012 by Eric Cooney.
I've seen a lot of questionable, dirty, or shocking plays in my time as a hockey fan. Dirty hits, intentional slashes, diving, the list goes on and on. However, I've never seen anything quite like what Ryane Clowe of the San Jose Sharks showed us on Thursday night. (more…)

Posted on 30 Mar 2012 by Eric Cooney.
The Pacific Division is jam-packed right now. Phoenix, Dallas, San Jose, and Los Angeles are all within a point of each other. Depending on the last 4-5 games, each team has a chance to win the division or miss the playoffs. So, understandably it's nervous times for Kings fans. (more…)

Tough Road Ahead
Posted on 6 Mar 2012 by Eric Cooney.
The Kings have been getting a bit of luck lately. Both Phoenix and San Jose have endured a spate of losses recently, helping out the Kings' playoff hopes. The Kings have been doing their share as well, winning 3 of 4 since the arrival of Jeff Carter. However, the Kings do not have an easy schedule down the stretch and it will take a few different things coming together (in my opinion) for...

Get Carter
Posted on 23 Feb 2012 by Eric Cooney.
Well, there you have it. The big move every Kings fan and their mother has been clamoring for since this ship started to go down a few weeks ago. The Kings swap Jack Johnson (the humanity!) and a 1st Round Pick (ugh), for sniper and Mike Richards drinking buddy Jeff Carter. Carter was acquired by the Blue Jackets this summer in exchange for Jakub Voracek, a 1st rounder and a 3rd rounder. ...

The Los Angeles Kings and a Miracle
Posted on 21 Feb 2012 by Sande Charles.
The phrase, “ the Kings need a miracle” is an understatement. Lately the level of play has been less than mediocre and certainly not playoff material. I think I speak for all Kings fans when I say I am emotionally drained from this rollercoaster of a season. Of course there has been the occasional glimmer of hope where I get butterflies in my stomach and think, “this is our year!R...
