For your morning reading pleasure, let’s dive into the news surrounding the Los Angeles Kings.
What’s a loyal Kings fan to do when there’s no Kings playoff hockey to watch? Go down to the Honda Center to watch the Ducks Hawks Western Conference Finals? Hardly.:
We drive down to Ontario to see our siblings play in their Western Conference finals of course! Our NHL team may have missed the cut this season but our AHL team (the Manchester Monarchs) are winning their Eastern Conference Finals and our ECHL team the Ontario Reign are currently battling the San Jose Sharks affiliate Allen Americans for the honor of playing for the Kelly Cup.
It’s a little like an episode an episode of Sliders; an alternate reality that’s similar to the NHL but just a little different. For example – it feels really weird to be cheering for a guy with the name Couture on his back. Especially in a game in which a Sharks affiliate is playing.

Check out an excerpt from the Top 10 LA Kings Playoff series – part one:
It still feels like yesterday that the long anticipated freeway series showdown between interstate 5 rivals, the Kings and the Ducks finally happened as they finally faced off against each other with high stakes on the line and boy it did not disappoint! (unless you’re a Ducks fan of course). Whether you’re a fan of the winning side or the losing side, we all can agree this series was truly epic! The Ducks looked in control early in game 1 only to have Marian Gaborik fly out of nowhere and snatch the victory away from their grip by tying the game with 7 seconds left and then he and Anze Kopitar teamed up to score the winner in overtime. The Kings took a 2-0 lead in the series but lost the next 3 games to the Ducks including a 2-0 shutout loss to rookie goaltender John Gibson. The Kings came back to tie the series at 3 and then invaded the Honda (Ponda) Center in Anaheim to win game 7 and the series which gave every Kings’ fan bragging rights to say to any Duck’s fan that we beat them in our first ever playoff meeting. The victory sent the Kings into the Western Conference Final for the third straight season which became a franchise record.
