Kings are much better than their seeding. Missed Jeff Carter most the year. Now he's healthy....LA has the two best centres...better Dcore and playoff goalie...Vegas can only hope to not get embarrassed.

I could be underestimating Vegas like I did to start the year, but Kings in six. Kings have tons of experience in the playoffs, Vegas has Fleury and Neal that have some of the most playoff experience on that roster. I know Fleury will play very hard compared to most of the team, but Los Angeles will outsmart them just about every game.

Hockey fans in comment sections, FB, and Twitter being cocky? Who could've heard of such a thing about literally every fanbase in the league?
Maybe you fans should have a little humility for having success so soon instead of sucking for the first few years. I noticed you conveniently ignored the fact that Vegas fans throw crap at fans wearing visitors jerseys. That is bad form, and makes all Vegas fans look bad. And this sentiment was echoed by many Kings fans after the game tonight.

People have been counting Vegas out for a year. They are pretty good at this underdog thing.

Fleury can own in the playoffs. If he plays that way Vegas will continue to shock the world.

Read the SinBin, Twitter, Facebook Vegas fan pages go to CNA, go to actual knights games dressed in LA jerseys and get crap thrown at you. Shall I go on?

I've worn Ducks jerseys to both games and haven't encountered anything more than the usual casual heckling you'll get in any arena. And if you look on the internet for any fanbase you'll find some people that go way overboard. Same with fans at the arena. You're going to have some bad apples. Case in point the Kings fans sitting behind me at the outdoor game that got into a fist fight with each other. I do agree that SinBin definitely needs to chill a little being that they are part of the "media".

You need me to list all the times I've seen Kings fans mistreat other fans first hand? Like the time I saw a Ducks fan's car absolutely trashed with slurpee juice in the parking lot of the outdoor game at Dodger's stadium? 40 years of being in the league makes that shit okay? Some idiots in a fanbase don't represent the whole. I think you'd agree.

The game between the Kings and Knights is the new frozen fury and was marketed as such. No surprise a ducks fan got no heckling. Especially a ducks fan

Season series was tied. Kings +1 in goal differential. Both Kings losses were without Carter. That means both wins were with him.

Lol, this must be the first series between #1 and #4 seed when later is considered decisive favourite... So, given that, Vegas probably will win...

Vegas has almost no chance, Quick is better than MAF, Kopitar and Doughty will contain Karlsson, who will be under scrutiny of which he's never seen before. would be surprised if they won more than a game

It takes a Gallant Knight to overthrow a King, but it can be done. Vegas in 7.

If Kopitar and Doughty spend all their time focusing on Wild Bill, they're gonna have problems with Marchesseault and Smith. And you're still forgetting the Haula, Neal, Perron line who combined for 70 goals and 140 points.

Also Quick may be better than MAF overall but he is absolutely exposable.
