I still don't see any Kings fans saying anything different. I think a lot of Kings fans know just how easily they can lose this series. It seems to be Vancouver fans just projecting on Kings fans.
I'm surprised that Vancouver fans are shocked that Kings fans are happy with a 2-0 start on the road. Kopitar, Williams, Carter and Doughty have zero goals and the Kings are up 2-0. Kings fans are going to be happy, nothing wrong with that.
The Kings players and Sutter are not taking the Canucks lightly and the Canucks need to elevate their game if they want to win the series. If they are waiting for the Kings to fold, they will not win the series. This is not Murray's Kings anymore, Sutter has them focused.
Too much individual play by the Canucks, and quite frankly the Kings have Duncan Keith to thank as much as anyone. How he only got 5 games on a mission well done is an absolute joke of a league.
Wait till when one of your star players has someone aim for their head. That's how you eliminate head shots to the game. This isn't even talking about just the Canucks this is talking about the entire league.

Weber's play on Zetterberg was an absolute joke.
Kings are missing Gagne to a concussion and he has scored at a higher goal rate in the playoffs than Daniel. Richards was lost to a concussion in December and has just now gotten his game back in this series. Clifford took a head shot in game one from the Canucks. Doughty took one last season.
Kings fans know plenty about head shots/concussions.
I haven't caught much of the series except for a few periods here and there. What stands out to me is how aggressive the kings are in the offensive zone and their excellent forechecking and unreal goaltending (tho Bobby Lu is playing lights out too). What's been keeping the Canucks guns silent?
Daniel sedin not making trip to la and is reportedly out for the series .. Probably the season
**** you Duncan Keith
That's a tough break. I honestly wish we were going against a full strength Vancouver. Reminds me a little bit of the Kings last year, losing Kopitar right at the end there for the entire postseason. Though I wish we had another identical Kopitar in that situation too Was probably the main reason we got Richards in the offseason.

Man, this. People seem to forget we're without some scoring depth as well in Gagne, and that Doughty and Richards lost some time and sucked for some more time with aftereffects
It's a different ballgame with Sedin, to be sure, and I wish him the best, but we've been dealing with headshot/concussion issues to major players for two seasons.
Last night, I met a Kings fan, and he said how's it feel to be down 2 - 0. I simply looked at him and smiled and said. I'm glad you're enjoying this now, because it takes 4 to win. I asked him where he was from and he said LA. I just smiled and chuckled.
Last time I met an ignorant fan who spat on my Team Canada flag and jersey while I was in Portland, Oregon during the Olympics, when we lost to USA during the Round Robin. I said to him we'll see them in the Gold Medal game. What happened then? And you wonder why I hate Americans.
Moral of the story: It takes 4 Kings fans, don't get ahead of yourself.
so it only takes one fan to form a majority? just like how some of you guys kept telling us that we should stop claiming that the kings will sweep? when the only person that even said that....wasn't a Kings' fan?
Besides, he wasn't wrong in saying that....isn't this the first time you've gone 0-2 in a series the past few years?

Exactly - we don't have Simon Gagne, a playoff stud - does anyone hear us crying about it ?
so what if the Sedin injury happened right before the playoffs and Gagne's been shelved for a while.
Injuries are injuries, and they occur in sports, save the excuses and play the game. You should have the Canucks coach repeat that last part to the team.

No no....moral of the story: judge all Americans by two people you met
Hate seeing any team use the injury excuse in the playoffs.
Bruins won the cup last year without their #1 center and without their #1 RW for most of the finals. Philly is doing great without their #1 dman. LA is without Gagne. Everyone deals with injuries in the playoffs.
I think everyone here is missing the point. Isn't this the first year that the kings went back to the black and white? Clearly they were going to make some noise.

Nice double standard. All I heard last year from kings fans in the playoffs was " if only we had kopitar we would have beat the sharks.. Woe is us"

ya i am sure you were angry when roam went headhunting on horton in the finals last year, right?
