Here's some good news. Calgary to the power play with 3 minutes to go in the 3rd, and a 2-2 score.

Kings should ban Saturday afternoon games.
It is obvious that the hockey gods hate early games in LA
Two icings that accidentally go in is proof

Hope the league takes a look at Burrows punching Toffoli in the back of the head in the second period before making a final decision.

Burrows went down easy, but Toffoli needs to be smarter and can't put himself in that position. He will probably get a game since he's not a repeat offender.

Kings have scored 5 goals in the last 4 games. That's not going to win you many hockey games, hence their 1-2-1 record in that stretch.

Canucks won the special teams battle, and once again, another night of no shows from the leaders who have to step up their production in order for this team to sneak in to the playoffs.

Toffoli suspension incoming?

I say a game, no more. No history, Burrows not hurt, late in the season and it looks like a push but not really a violent hit. But it was stupid and dangerous so it needs to be a game.

Game, Set, Match.

Pretty much explains the whole game. Move on to the tough road trip.

Oh dear, the kings just looked off. Canucks played well though. The fringe dirty stuff really needs to be done by a nolan or andreoff rather than a TT.

Speed. Unfortunately our breakaways were to our slowest of foot forwards. They were all caught or challenged from behind. When we have trouble 1v1 with no pressure in shootouts then what are our chances on breakaways? Even Vey beat Lewis although I think Lewis was midway through his shift.

Pretty hard to sweep the regular season series with Canucks anyways. They are a good team.

Kings won't catch Vancouver now. Gotta go for wild card.

The Nucks could still lose a couple.
Not giving up hope yet.
They have Jets twice, Hawks, Preds, Blues, and Kings left and some trap games as well.
It would be something on April 6 if that game meant the winner was in and the loser was out.

Kings were never gonna take Vancouver's spot. Vancouver is a legitimate playoff team. Kings will win very little games scoring one lousy goal. Oh well, move on.

Still a lot of games left, if you can believe that.

Kopitar, unfortunately needs to start putting the puck in the net. That means shooting the puck.

The Kings passed their way out of Five scoring chances today (what I counted).

That is not going to win games.
