With Tippett crying about the refs, it's basically his white flag. That team is done and he's has given up. He can't talk about what his team needs to do to be better because he can't figure out. So he passes the blame off his dirty team and cries. Now we know where that pansy Mike Smith gets it from.
Is anybody still having a hard time, you know... Believing this is actually happening? Lets remember the days of Nagy, Frolov, Patty O, LaBarbera, & Calder... This is so amazing to look at us now!
I feel you and I'm pretty sure many other kings fans are feeling the same way.
Wow. How does it feel to be a Kings fan right now? Unreal run
I am just beside myself with happiness. I have been thru so many disappointing postseasons with this team, year after year after frustrating year. So many bad results in the past, but it's like the wheel of fortune finally, finally has turned in our favor. And to watch these Kings lines move together on the ice like the parts of a Swiss timepiece, shift after shift, is just so freakin' satisfying.
Just got back from the game. Let me tell you guys, I have been to all but one of the playoff games at Staples the past three years, and never, ever has the crowd noise literally pushed my ears to the pain threshold like it did tonight. First was the Doughty takedown on Doan, but what really did it was that epic psycho-beastly shift by Voynov at the end. That combined with the fact that the Kings were about to win....well, it just pushed it over the edge.
It was spectacular. I absolutely cannot wait until Sunday.
Louder than the final 2:00 of Game 4 vs. the Blues?

Lets go a little further back post '93 cup run. Vopat brothers, Craig Johnson, John Slaney, Chris Snell, Rob Cowie, John Druce.........and on, and on, and on! I don't wanna wake up for sure! But a looong way to go. Not there yet until it actually happens!

This is unbelievable, almost surreal. We're cruising past the teams like it's nothing and then I saw this tweet:
ESPN Stats & Info @ESPNStatsInfo
Kings are 4th NHL team to start playoffs 11-1 in last 30 years; the previous 3 all lost in Stanley Cup Final.
Ugh.
Statistics like this are such baloney. Why would it matter on this Kings run? Statistics had us down vs. the Canucs and the Blues. And then people were so afraid of the Coyotes before the series started. I get cautious optimism but cheer up a bit. We're hot and we ain't stoppin'.
What a whiny little *****. Terrible for the COACH to just play the lame-fan-game: "Brown and ALL the Kings just keep diving. It's a shame our game has come to this. The refs are in a tough spot." What, did all that "embellishment" allow you to get 4 SOG in the 3rd period??? The term classless is way overused here, but Tippett your comments were classless. Phx played a much better game tonight, but they just got beat by a better team.
Tippett sounds like a spoiled 3rd grader who can't win at handball on the playground. What a joke.
I would be embarassed if any Kings coach did a press conference and all he could do was blame the refs. No wonder his players play like *******!! - they have Tippett showing them how.
Tippett is a smart coach. He's using this to get inside the referee's heads for the next game. And, try to motivate his team some more..
