Game Preview – Kings vs Oilers (Rinse & Repeat)

April 2, 2012 by

26

The Kings meet the Oilers for the final time after beating them last friday 4-1. With a win tonight, the Kings will gain a 2 point lead in the Pacific and inch closer to a Division championship for the first time in 21 years. After all our mid-season disappointment, I keep pinching myself on how this […]

Game Preview – Kings vs Wild (Wild end of season!)

Do you love a great roller-coaster ride? Because that’s what we are on right now as a King’s fan. Its been a lot of fun as well as extremely stressful. Did you see the intensity of Richard’s face after he scored that amazing short-handed goal last night? Did you watch Brown hit hard and just pummel his way […]

The Kings are competing to keep a playoff spot and the Edmonton Oilers are out. As of right now (noon pst) the Kings are in 8th place and Edmonton is in 14th in the western conference. We should be able to beat them easily right? Wrong. For some incredibly stupid reason, the Kings do not play […]

You know how you can tell a King’s fan from all other hockey fans? They’re bald. That’s right, they have no hair. We slowly and surely have been pulling it out little by little this season. We don’t need Rocco’s tattoo balm as our sponsor, we need a sunscreen company. Can you see it? All the fans milling around […]

The Boston Bruins are coming to our house to play. But we are a different playmate this time. Back in December, Boston beat us 3-0 on the very first game after Terry Murray was fired. The dreaded road trip where everything was scrambled including how we played. But not now. Oh no, not now. Boston […]

We knew it would be like this. We knew during those previous game losses that it would be close to make the playoffs. We knew the boys were going to have to dig deep in their souls and each pull out a miracle. The Kings stand in 8th place after 5 wins in a row. […]

Game Preview – Kings vs Sharks

“This is an important game tonight between the Kings and the Sharks” = understatement of the century. Ok, well not century but this season for sure. How important is this game tonight? The Kings are tied with the Sharks with 82 points and set in 9th and 10th place respectively in the Western Conference standings. […]

This is it boys and girls. The final game against Nashville this season. Kings have taken 2 of the three so far and most recently two weeks ago. Kings won last night and our standings look a hell of a lot better this morning. If all goes our way tonight, we could find ourselves in […]

Game Preview – Kings vs Ducks

Last game of the season between the Kings and Ducks. It’s almost sad, isn’t it? No? You’re right! It’s not sad its fricken awesome because we beat the pants off those fowl smelling Ducks 4 out of the 5 times we played so far. Tonight we meet at the Ponda and intend to crush their dismal playoff chance dreams. […]

Game Preview – Kings vs Wings

Getting beaten by the Wings makes me sad. Playing against the Wings when they have half their roster and still losing makes me mad. Getting swept in the season? Fury. Not Fury like extremely pissed, but the full on fury of an expulsion of fiery lava building pressure and letting go so your head blows […]

If only all our games could be like the last one we had against Chicago! We’ve won 2 of the 3 games so far this season and both were shutouts. Brown’s hat trick still makes me smile. Of course, being a King’s fan is a partial bi-polar experience, so we have to grab what we […]

Time for the Wings! Woo hoo! Nothing better than a beat down like last time when they took us 8-2. BUT! After last night, I think the Kings will be ready for the depleted Wings and that uneven score will be in our favor after tonight’s game. Detroit is still without their best players. Lindstrom, […]
