True but teams have histories and those things carry on throughout time. I mean it is part of my experience of being a fan of the Kings among many others. To me it is an example of what comes around going around. We sucked for so long and especially back then that it has become ingrained in my memory and what I think about whenever we play the Oilers. Sure none of those kids from tonight were around for those games but guess who was? Craig MacT and Kevin the toolbag Lowe and a few other former Oilers as well. It all is part of the experience.
I am sure Kopi did a lot of that when he was a kid playing on his National team. The Slovenians have actually gotten better along with Kopi's rise in the NHL.

Craig MacT was part of those teams and so was Kevin Lowe and a couple of other former Oilers who are part of their current Org. It all counts.

Seeing this image makes me LOL every time... I guess Edmonton fans don't feel the same.
Because that's the face they have as well watching that crap.

After all these years, I'd still like to see him forced to wear a helmet.

Reading their GDT reminds me of those bad years after the lockout around here. Gallows humor all around.

I hope the guys being classy in victory means Edmonton doesn't come out wanting to kick the **** out of us when we play them up there 
Glad we played hard and respectfully through the end of the game, props to Edmonton for still going hard, they could easily have shelled up and just played passive D but they stuck to their system as messed up as it is. Feel bad for a lot of those kids, but you can see some of the latent talent, it just has ZERO mentorship.
Yakupov cutting to the net like a god damn torpedo tells me a lot about his character.

Yakupov has had the same problem since Jr hockey. The guy doesn't understand how to play a team game, he is on the wrong side of the puck every single shift.
Someone like yakupov needs a Terry Murray coach early, it's too late now, Yak has all the bad habits.

I came here to post that exact same video.
As I was watching Bunz tonight I couldn't help but think of Hauser. That 10-1 game turned out to be Adam's first and last NHL game. The same will probably be true of Bunz.
Ironically, both Hauser and Bunz have the exact same NHL save percentage (.750).

Doughty apparently lost his tooth in the Chicago game, to go along with Matt Greene's second black eye. Sheesh, they really kicked us in, no wonder we were dead at the end of the trip

That Sabres team was stacked in 2005-06, and the Kings, not so much. They ended up losing in the Conference Finals in 7 games to the eventual Cup Champs, the Hurricanes.
The box score for that 10-1 drubbing is quite comical,

Seven Sabres had a multi-point game, and that lineup was pretty stacked.
Hell, compare the 2006 Kings to the 2012 Oilers, it is a miracle that the Kings didn't finish dead last that season (they ended up with the 11th pick and that turned out to be the last season for Dave Taylor/Andy Murray).
