If the Kings do win this series I will consider ir vindication. Not for the Courtnall incident, no. It will be for the complete a******ing the Kings got for the Gretzky trade. Patrice Tardiff, Craig Johnson, Roman Vopat and 2 picks (turned into Zultec and someone else). Just the names sound like a U.N. meeting. Good god. Craig Johnson, we know how that turned out. I proudly wear my Deadmarsh jersey so I have a special place for Craig Johnson.
#STLblues Hitch says speed isn't lacking - 'How do u get around physicality? How to u get around beef? If u don't have the necessary ..size to get around it, then the only way you can do it is to plow through it. We're trying to put as much pressure on them as possible.

#STLblues Hitchcock on the @LAKings - 'They're playing a good team game, but the best player in the series has been Drew Doughty.'
Quote:
Hitchcock - 'Biggest thing Doughty does is absorb checks & get the puck out on his own. Unique skill, only 10 guys in NHL can do.' @LAKings

Hitch on #LAKings @DustinBrown23 v Backes: 'That hit against the bench, it hurt me. I'm surprised both guys got up. That was a big time hit'

Which player's frustrated them the most, besides @JonathanQuick32 - @CstewSTL25 said MRichie_10 @AnzeKopitar @DustinBrown23. Twitter power?

It's always surprising to hear players say it's hard to play in Staples. I guess sometimes even i buy into the stereotype that LA Kings fans are fair-weather and don't' care about their team when compared to other franchises.
It's also a bit surprising all the props Doughty has been getting in the playoffs. I thought he was playing well, but not great (most people seem to be disappointed in Doughty). I guess there's a lot more knowledge that I still need to acquire.
my playoff beard is itchy as sin and i look like the undercover terrorist from team america. they are calling me pubey at work.
lets go kings!!!! great quotes too cruel, ta
It sounds like Hitchcock is a big fan of the Kings. Maybe we should make a bandwagon avatar for him after we knock them out of the playoffs.
For a while I just thought he was leveling, but he's said this stuff before every game (and losing), so obviously he's genuine when he says it. It's just a bit odd to me that he keeps saying how much better the Kings are in this series. It's like he's given up on his own team.

Is it worse than Mike Smith's beard? He has the pubiest beard I've ever seen.

REAL LA Kings fans care more than the fans of most teams.

He coached Doughty in the Olympics so he probably has a bit of a soft spot for him. But I agree, he keeps saying nice things about the Kings and it's not in a Guy Boucher, reverse psychology way. I am surprised he keeps doing it.
