@cmasisak22: Here's the list of players with more playoff goals from 2012-present than Jeff Carter:
 
I'm just glad they got rid of that inedible Chinese buffet at the El Cortez... The rest of the food has vastly improved since they got rid of it as well...

Coincidence???
 
Haven't been on in a couple days, but how about that ****ing Game 2, eh? Go Kings! Let's take the lead boys!
 
The ****ing El Cortez... love that place! Speaking of disgusting food, I'll never forget my friend eating salsbury steak off a styrofoam plate at the Gold Spike (Strike) near Fremont street. That is by far the dingiest casino I've ever stepped foot in. Not sure if it is still there but it is a real pleasure to visit if you ever get the chance. The last time I was there (5 years ago or so), they still had coins shooting out the slot machines and the haze from cigarette smoke gave you about 10 feet of visibility. It looked worse than LA on the worst of the worst smoggy days.
 
I'm hoping the return of Shaw won't be a factor. He kind of balances things out for the Hawks. As long as we can continue to roll 4 lines I think we'll be OK. Here's to hoping King-Richards-Williams light things up!

Agreed, although I know how much I'm sure the Kings appreciate the rest, so it's all good this time around.

Richie said the same thing before last game...and we all know how that turned out :). I think mentally they want to play as soon as possible. Physically, this team needs the extra day. We had a lot of extra time off during 2012 which we probably didn't need as much as this year.
 
Too cool...

For the foreseeable future, Randy's Donuts will no longer feature a giant dounut on top of the store. The L.A. landmark in Inglewood will convert to a hockey puck starting Saturday.

"The donut and the L.A. Kings are both extremely recognizable in our community," said Kings' President of Business Operations Luc Robitaille. "We believe it is a great match and our fans will have fun with it during this exciting time."

It's been closed for about four months now... To their credit...they did have a fairly good Reuben... Not the best...but top ten in casino Reubens...

The Four Queens HAS to have the tightest slots in Vegas...not just Downtown... I've yet to win anything there...but it seems the El Cortez and Binion's had the loosest that I can recall...outside of the now defunct Western...

I miss Binions. So much. So many late nights in the poker room memories (good and bad) and their downstairs cafe used to serve one of the best burgers I've had. Still hoping it someday reopens, and maintains some of the original flair.

I'm not sure about their slots. I was taught never to play a game you didn't have an edge in. I do remember the clang of the nickels it used to spit out, even just 6-7 years ago.

I can only go on the ones I've played the three times I was at Binion's and walked out with over $500 each time...while only putting a five in them...

I'm still trying to get rid of 50 cent pieces from one I played at the El Cortex about four years ago... I think I still have one tub full and that might make this year's kettles... The first year I sorted out the silver from the "junk" and still had about $750 in coin...
