COACH & PLAYER QUOTES Originally Posted by Forward & Team Captain DUSTIN BROWN, on WIN & High Scoring : "For our team to be successful it’s about work. We didn’t have our best second [period]. We came out and rebounded with a really good third [period], the work ethic was there and we found the back of the net twice. At the end of the day, that team was two points ahead of us and it was a huge two points for us to get at home. That’s what it’s going to take, (scoring more). We are going to have to have scoring from the back end. Tonight we had a lot of shots. We had some grade-A scoring chances that didn’t go in the net. I know we probably hit three or four posts. We’ve been getting more shots on goal and keep saying “keep shooting the puck, it will eventually go in” and tonight they started going in. I think if we can continue that mentality, you are going to see us score more goals. Last week we had three 40 shot games and two goals—I don’t think that is going to happen if we can consistently put up 30-35 shots." Originally Posted by Defenseman ROB SCUDERI, on Game : "You always want to come out and play your best hockey in the first [period], by the time that you get to that first TV timeout and really just establish an attitude and a tone to the game. I thought we had a very good first period. Second period wasn’t very good—we picked up towards the end, but at that point we gave a lot of momentum back to Phoenix. But, we finished up well." Originally Posted by Former Head coach TERRY MURRAY, on Win : "Why are you asking ME? I don‘t coach these guys no more … that‘s why they won … DUH !" Originally Posted by New Head coach DARRYL SUTTER, on Win & Goals by D-men : "It’s nice to see a ‘W’ up there…I want to over-emphasize the importance of producing more offense to win hockey games…We had a good first period. We’ve been trying to talk about that, good first periods. Then I think they [Phoenix] made the push in the second, and we didn’t match it, and then we got it back in the third. They (defensemen) were holding their line. They had patience at the blue line instead of being over aggressive and forcing offense. Good play down low. I thought the first period we did a really good job of that down low and going low to high." * ( see for more details and other game day news, notes & quotes.)

LET'S GO KINGS !!!

- UPCOMING SCHEDULE -

NOTE : Regarding LARGE SIZE IMAGES / YELLOW RE-SIZE IMAGE BARS ABOVE PICS, let me offer up one nice little suggestion ...
This will get rid of those pesky yellow resize bars over the top of some larger pictures ... as they annoy the hell out of me and maybe they do you also ?
- Go into/click on your "USER CP" {control Panel} up top left in the red bars
- on the left under 'Settings & Options' click on "Edit Options"
- scroll down to 'Thread Display Options', and then 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- click on the 'Drop Down List Box' over on the Right of 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- select it to "KEEP ORIGINAL SIZE"
- SAVE your selections !
There ... now don't that look MUCH BETTER

The space between her legs is reserved for me? Yessssss!

[BigBrown]

2 points and we tie San José and Dallas for the division lead. They have a couple of games in hand though. Not that I'm very confident, Kings haven't had much luck against the Hawks in some time now.

[Sydor25]

Offense versus defense? Kings have this in the bag, right?

[Muzzinga]

we havnt beaten Chicago since like the 90's and they dont lose at home. This is gonna be fun

With all due respect, who cares about the division lead? We need to worry about conference standings.

In case you didn't know, division lead affects conference standings

[ru4reals]

I'm gonna guess that Patrick Sharp is gonna score against us today.

[johnjm22]

Chicago has been hot, but the Kings have superior goaltending and play better team defense. We've got a decent shot to get at least a point tonight.

The Kings are 4-4-2 against the Blackhawks in their past 10 meetings.

[Buddy The Elf]

Are the Kings winning yet?

[DaAnimal]

if we win, im buying everyone in n out

[KopitarFAN]

Expect the worst, and you're never disappointed.

I'm going to hold you to this ...

Let's start up the list,

- Puck U {TWO 4x4-DoubleDoubles, ONE Animal Fries w/ a side of Fries, and ONE X-Large Diet Coke (gotta watch the boyish figure)}
- add your name to the list here

and keep passing it on

[JBernierFan]

Oh great, now I want In n Out and I just had it on Saturday. I swear, I could probably eat it every day and not get tired of it.

[sjmay*]

Uh-Oh, all you Murray haters should be scared,

Sutter mentioned how good the low to high was in the last game....oh noes!!!
