According to the Canucks game preview, their record against the Kings in their last 10 meetings is 7-2-1. They split the series 2-2 last season, Kings won in their first two meetings by scores of 2-1 (shootout) and 4-1 and lost twice by scores of 3-1.
I can't stand the Canucks. They along with the Ducks are the only two teams I legitimately hate. Their goaltending has been really spotty as late, so this should be interesting. With that said, when they are having a good night they are almost impossible to stop. I also wonder if anything will happen with Richards and Booth.
Oh, and take a shot every time a Canuck looks to a ref after a play in hopes of a call.

The Canucks have def become one of my most hated teams. I only hate the Ducks because of Corey Perry, I respect Getzlaf, always a fan of Bobby Ryan since he's a US Olympian and like George Parros.

I can't stand Perry either and I hate the Ducks' brain dead fanbase. At least Canucks fans know their hockey.

Not likely, there's nothing there. The first time they met after Booth returned, Booth asked Richie to go and Richie obliged and they fought. That was that. They played several times after and both have moved on.
However, there is bad blood between Richards and Bieksa and they have fought before. Richards doesn't like Bieska...alot...so it wouildn't surprise me, if they went at it.
Makes no sense to me as to why they'd pull Richardson out of the lineup instead of Ethan Moreau. Richardson tends to play well against the Canucks and the Kings need his speed against a quick Canucks team.
But a rehabilitating player who hasn't played hockey in many months is going to help the team out more. I'll wait for the results to decide whether we can chalk this up as yet another poor judgement in lineup management from Terry Murray.
i agree. was looking through the thread for anyone that was inclined to question changing the line up after the win. good point about moreau (mr. penalty guy). let's hope the kings win and we can give murray praise for his great coaching.
On behalf of all kings fans I humbly offer this up. All will be forgiven, the slate will be wiped clean, and furthermore we promise to start a Penner fan club in section 323 if you score a hat trick this evening and lead the team in beating the canucks.
