Big Game Story: PDSF’s Round 1, BATTLE CALIFORNIA. The Los Angeles Kings and San Jose Sharks face off in the postseason for the third time since 2011. The Kings won the regular-season series with a 3-1-1 record, but the Sharks won the most recent game 2-1 on April 3 behind second-period goals from Joe Pavelski and Logan Couture. Home-ice advantage, which belongs to the Sharks in this Western Conference First Round series, has played a key role in this rivalry. The Kings defeated the Sharks last season in a seven-game series in which five games were decided by one goal and the home team won each game. The home team went 4-1-0 during the regular season, with the Kings beating the Sharks 1-0 at SAP Center on Jan. 27. KINGS need to remind SHARKS, KINGS FANS and THEMSELVES which team just won a Stanley Cup Championship in 2012. GO KINGS GO !!!

- UPCOMING WCSF PLAYOFFS SCHEDULE -

NOTE : Regarding LARGE SIZE IMAGES / YELLOW RE-SIZE IMAGE BARS ABOVE PICS, let me offer up one nice little suggestion ...
This will get rid of those pesky yellow resize bars over the top of some larger pictures ... as they annoy the hell out of me and maybe they do you also ?
- Go into/click on your "USER CP" {control Panel} up top left in the red bars
- on the left under 'Settings & Options' click on "Edit Options"
- scroll down to 'Thread Display Options', and then 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- click on the 'Drop Down List Box' over on the Right of 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- select it to "KEEP ORIGINAL SIZE"
- SAVE your selections !
There ... now don't that look MUCH BETTER
