All I'm saying, is that the internet Ducks fanclub have a reputation to uphold. Clearly this is a dirty and classless trick by the LA Kings fanbase. :sarcasm:

But seriously, I've been looking forward to this since the preseason; I have money on this game so Cmon Getzlaf get the hats :yo:

Well, you know how the Kings organization, all the way down to the unborn Kings fans, are all just a bunch of classless individuals. Classless streamers included. It's our duty to uphold that reputation :sarcasm:
 
Hammond with the funny!

Perhaps the Kings should consider a special third jersey for tomorrow's game at Anaheim
 
Sutter on McBain post practice vis the Insider:

On getting Jamie McBain acclimated to the team:
Yeah, there’s a lot to go over with him. It’s way different coming to this conference. The pace of play is way different…We’ll see. [Reporter: It seems like a crash course, a couple days.] He hasn’t played on a good team. Big difference. Good kid, good skill set. The next part is the game. [Reporter: It’s amazing how quickly things can turn. That’s the beauty of sports. He’s skating in his dad’s rink in Bloomington a couple weeks ago, and here he is with the Stanley Cup champions.] You know what? He’s had a really good college career, came out, and played a year in the American League,…got off to a good start in Carolina, signed a big contract, and had trouble getting one. It happens.

I think that is something to keep in mind. From what I recall of McBain, mostly from his time with the Canes, he was a good puck handler, skated well and had sound offensive instincts, good shot and could put up points. But he didn't show consistency or maybe it was the system he was in.

I think playing in a more defensively structured system with a talented team whose forwards are also defensively responsible with a different type of coach could make a big difference. He could turn out to be a good bottom tiered fit. But it will take him a bit to get acclimated, that won't happen in one or two games, not coming from East to West and a philosophy change.


Helene Elliot reporting that Perry and Beauchemin are in a quarantine situation , not allowed near the team, and an article posted by PRoSports Hockey today inks their illness to the same viral gland thing that hit the Blues so hard and went thru their team. The WIld also have had some players with it, and Mike Russo of the Star Tribune (Minnesota) traced it back to the visitor's locker room in Anaheim and LA .

As it turns out, the St. Louis Blues are going through the exact same symptoms right now and have diagnosed it as some kind of bacterial infection.

The common denominator: The Blues and Wild were in the same visitors' locker rooms at Anaheim and at Los Angeles last week and weekend, and Blues coach Ken Hitchcock told St. Louis reporters, "It starts with one person, and then it’s passed very quickly through water bottles, or a towel, or whatever, the shower floor. It just goes, like ‘right now,’ goes zipping through your team."

Like Brad Doty has been saying, this could be a huge signing that works out very well for the Kings.

Great, so on top of everything else our team is going to contract the plague tomorrow.

This is one game I'm truly happy that the game is being covered on NBC. Not having to listen to haytard is fantastic.

Stay out of the box and I think the kings win 4-1.

I think Haytard will be in between the benches to give his on ice reports. Or it could be Pierre and his "I sure the people of Greensville miget hockey in Manitoba is proud of the tremendous play of this 19 year old, son of Bus driver and old Toronto Marlboro grandson great Hooky Nahar."
 
Man... I was looking forward to someone smashing Perry's face into the boards... You guys are telling me he's being quarantined? ********!

Wonder if the Ducks are still holding a grudge from last years game 7 beat down. Carter manhandling their D so he could go down and score was just a thing of beauty.

6-1 Kings....

It's impossible to say where it came from, might have been the Honda center, might have been staples. The schedules are too similar.

Unless the Canucks fans were right in that Ryan Kesler really is cancer...

No. I like the ducks radioman though.

12 games. 4 penalty minutes. Yikes.

There was a great line in the Walking Dead about this. It was something along the lines of "You can't turn an outdoor cat into an indoor cat"

Voynov is now a non-roster player but there’s no change in status. Still suspended, still being paid, still counts on cap

IF there is no change in his status, what exactly is a 'non roster player?'
