The Kings are the bigger villain. Well, Torres is the bigger villain, but after him. Nobody likes Brown. Either more, or just as many people don't like Lucic. On top of that, the Kings are not just a villain, but a lucky villain. So Couture knowing what he's doing with the hit on Lucic, or knocking Quick over, it all gets overshadowed. Maybe for good reason, but overshadowed nonetheless.
I'd rather the Kings come out of SJ with a win on the 22nd than do anything too dumb, but, we'll see how it goes. Couture is laughing because the score was 5-1, and the Kings didn't even put up a fight for about 55 of the 60 minutes.
