Another difference between us and LA - LA has a great road record in the playoffs. Our record in road games is terrible
Great is a severe understatement when they have played 7 road playoff games these playoffs and are 7-0 in those games.
It's REALLY gonna stick in my craw if the Kings win the Cup and the last time they lost 2 games in a row...was to the Sharks.

I think the Kings locker room really wanted the Nucks.
There is a lot of hate for that team. They knew they had the playoff spot locked up. That room looks like they didn't care they were the 8th seed at all.
Lets face it, Winning the Division is not that great. The Kings played poorly at home all year. They wanted road games.
Did Doan actually take any strides on his boarding penalty? It looks like he just sort of glides into Lewis. What an idiot Lewis is for putting himself in a position to get injured like, he's lucky it wasn't much worse.
Didn't watch the game tonight. I watched the replays expecting Claude Lemieux and Ron Hextall reincarnates terrorizing a bunch of poor, innocent 3rd grade Girl Scouts based on the way I heard it described.
Smith's slash was nothing and the two boarding calls, while obvious penalties and stupid plays, were both partially caused by the player being hit.
Very disappoint.
Also, what happened to the Kings fans of last year? They're starting to piss me off.

I warned you guys. Get ready for Sharks(Guppies) are Chokers and will never win the Cup from Kings fans. The worst part is the Kings have 2000 times the fans the Ducks do(which isn't saying much since the Ducks have 15 fans) but there's gonna be more trolling due to sheer numbers. I can't believe a Sharks Mod is jumping on the Kings bandwagon. I don't recall any Kings Mod jumping on the Sharks bandwagon. I don't recall many Kings fans asking for bandwagon avatars the last few years either. This is a disaster. Go King Henrik! Son of Sweden. I bid thee good luck against the Sons of Hollywood.
Becoming like Laker fans. I'm telling you guys. If the Kings win, all that buddy-buddy talk we used to have with them will be a distant memory.
Not true. After the Kings I would root for you guys over every other team in the Western Conference. The Sharks fans on this board have a great sense of humor. I laughed my ass off when you guys came up with Jesus Toews. The self depricating stuff you guys do when your team isn't playing well is funny as hell. Reminds me of us. Besides with me sporting this Clowe avatar after stickgate the Kings are 10-1.
Believe me all of us are in a state of shock right now. There are always going to be a small element of any fan base that think they are more knowledgable or better fans just because the team they root for is winning.
We have waited so freaking long, and it's nice to see the Kings have this kind of success with most of the young core they started building around intact. We all got to see Kopitar, Brown, and Quick grow into the players they are today right from the beginning.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Going toe-to-toe with some idiot fans of other teams on the main boards who call this run by the Kings "luck", has nothing to do with the mutual respect that most of our fanbases have for each other. I look forward to some more meaningful games between our teams next year, and some more dancing

I don't really see the Kings' fans as being that bad,but I also live in Michigan, meaning I've had to deal with 4 Detroit Stanley Cups and 6 trips to the finals, so you all will just have to suck it up and deal with it if it turns out that they are mouthy.
...and it pisses me off that the Coyotes had just ONE more point than the Sharks. I fully believe had the Sharks not given away so many games and won the division, they would have beat the Wings and then Nashville.
Now, the Kings are another story. The way they are playing, I don't know how the Sharks would fare, but I truly believe they would have taken down the Wings and Preds. Maybe that's wrong, but the Blues were the worst matchup possible.
