LA's not gonna be getting as many goals as they have throughout the playoffs against this Rangers team. Best goalie they've faced is Crawford, and we all know his story - solid, but far from an elite goalie, and obviously a HUGE step down from the best goalie in the league.

Their PP is bound to regress, which was a HUGE part of them beating the Kings. Need to use our speed to pressure their blueline, which is easily the most vulnerable part of this Kings' team. Quick is not unbeatable.

We absolutely CANNOT turn over the puck in the neutral zone, LA will rip us to shreds if we're sloppy through the middle. I have plenty of faith that that won't be the case, though.

Yes, that has been their bread and butter all season and through the playoffs.
One thing I noticed tonight was how much success the Blackhawks had stripping the puck from the Kings as they carried the puck out of their own zone. Often they did not make the short pass up to an open man, but attempted to headman it out, and Chicago took it from them numerous times right at the Kings own blueline.

I will burn it if we win the Cup. And my next jersey will be the Cup clinching player's jersey.

Buy that next jersey, but I think that's backwards. Burn it if they lose. Keep it if they win. You can forgive Gaborik for playing on a team that we beat in the Final. You can't forgive him for beating us in the Final.

I have one too :(

I have bad luck with jerseys - I have 3.

1) Wayne Gretzky - He retires early.
2) Kovalev (2004) - He's **** and then gets traded
3) Gaborik - Traded

I want to get a Kreider, but I don't think I should...:(

I was supposed to get a Nash jersey but I accidentally got a Kreider one.

Best mistake ever IMO.
