OT: Who Would You Rather See Get Into The 8th Spot? Detroit or Phoenix?

[Ron*]

Or even Dallas?

But the question posed is between a consensus of two hated teams from Kings' fans perspective...Detroit, a long-time can't-stand-them or Phoenix, a late-blooming hate-them-all-at-once type of team.

(Dallas actually has the best shot with a game in hand on both teams but this is about which team you can't stand getting in or not. I haven't included 'Lumbus in this discussion because hey, they are 'Lumbus, even with a Vezina-contending goalie this time around.)

Personally, I rather see Detroit take an exit for once.

Mods, I thought this deserved its own thread rather than lump it in around the league. It really is more of a perspective topic then what is actually going on on a day-to-day basis.

I would rather see Detroit get in 8th. They're not the same team they once were, and it's very obvious this season. Phoenix is still the same team I hated last year and this year, and Dallas has proven they can beat us, so I don't want them anywhere near the playoffs.

 

[Luuuc20]

Detroit because they've played the Hawks extremely tough all year. Would be a great series

 

[Shellz]

Detroit

 

[DocWest]

Detroit I guess. Dallas can beat us and I hate the Cryotes.

Actually the stars.

 

[takk]

I want Coyotes though they blew a huge opportunity yesterday. I still think there will be some changes by the end of season, even Minnesota is not safe now.

 

[Sydor25]

Detroit. They could at least give Chicago a series. Would be better for the NHL too.

 

[Scottkmlps]

Detroit.

 

[Hatter]

Duck Fetroit.
Muck Fichigan.

 

[cheap77]

**** detroit.

Anyone but detroit.

 

[Reaper45]

Columbus. I hate the Dead Wings, hate the Cryotes and the ****ing Stars just have our number.

 

[King'sPawn]

Columbus or Detroit. Hate the Coyotes, and I'm convinced the Kings can't even beat the Stars AHL affiliate.

 

[deeshamrock]

Columbus. And I think they'll do it. I'm looking forward to their game vs. Minny tonight. They are a fun team to watch and I am a huge fan of Bob and hope next year when their in the Flyers division he shuts them out if 4 games in the playoffs. So pissed they gave up on him after a brilliant rookie year.

Detroit. After the playoffs last year I hope Doan never tastes playoff hockey ever again and the closest he comes to a Stanley Cup is visiting it at the Hockey Hall of Fame like the rest of us.

Same with Smith.

**** them both.

 

[Dooney]

Detroit.

 

[ID]

I hope lumbus makes it. I would also like to see the hawks and Yotes face off again, it was a great series last year.

 

[Omni Owl]

Columbus. Their fans have suffered long enough. DO NOT WANT Dallas, chances are we'd end up playing them and get crushed...

 

[Rorschach]

I mirror the sentiments above...whoever will give Chicago a first round loss.

 

[Butch 19]

**** detroit.

Anyone but detroit.

^^^^ this - an easy choice.

No love for phx of course, but det needs to miss the playoffs.

The Kings have had so many (late-in-the-game) heartbreaking losses to det over the last 10 - 15 years, that seeing them miss the POs would be an awesome thing.

 

[BringTheReign]

Detroit and it isn't even close. Columbus would be my pick out of any the teams who could make the 8th spot though.

I know Detroit has historically been a pain in our sides, but the team they have now isn't that team. Phoenix, and especially Mike Smith, can go fall off a cliff.

 

[Tavo]

Columbus for the fans, last year was a real treat for us considering how long we've been in the league.

But if I had to pick between those 3, I'd say Dallas and hopefully we meet them in the playoffs and spank them, we need redemption.

 

[Telos]

Phoenix. It's time for the steak to come to an end for Detroit.

Sometimes I think you and I are the same person.
