Cujo Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 The Kings are playing pretty uninspired hockey today. "Curse of the Clippers", perhaps.Game 5 will be at The Job on Tuesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 This series will return to Los Angeles.I'd place a hefty wager on that happening. LA's 7-0 road record notwithstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Coyotes didn't hit double digits in shots on goal in a single frame. That game was ugly. Sucked. Felt like November hockey, not a conference final. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaks4 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Smitty gets his 3rd shutout and more importantly avoids the sweep. Don't have any misconceptions of the position the Yotes are in but it was nice for them to get this win. Go Desert Dogs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfan0518 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 And the Coyotes win! Mike Smith finally found his groove and we will have another white out at the spectacular jobings.com Arena. The Kings played laid back today and they did not seem too inspired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zpqmaowl Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Welp. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Did anyone honestly think Richards and Carter would give it their all for a Sunday noon start? Oh well. Go get 'em on Tuesday, I guess. Try not to remember you're an eighth-place team this time. What a crappy game to have subjected North America to. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanmaldonado Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 What a bad game for both the Kings and hockey fans. Snoozefests during the playoffs are the absolute worst. Especially when it's an elimination game for the team that played its sloppiest hockey in two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 What a bad game for both the Kings and hockey fans. Snoozefests during the playoffs are the absolute worst. Especially when it's an elimination game for the team that played its sloppiest hockey in two months.Well have you been saying the same thing for the past three Coyotes' games? Just asking. Was it a great game by the Kings? Nope, they played kind of lethargic... okay they did play lethargic. I shrug, they are still up 3-1. If it comes back to LA, then I'll start to get nervous. The thing is, they didn't hit, they just kind of skated around. The one thing I need to see on Tuesday is for Dustin Brown to go hunt down Handzal and hammer his butt into the third row with a clean check. That's when you know the series will be over. The Kings just didn't come out with a killer attitude and hitting everything that moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I think I said somewhere in here that if the Coyotes were going to win even one game in this series Mike Smith was going to have to post a shutout. He did. Coyotes won. Kings didn't look totally into it though, either. I'll be pleasantly surprised if this thing does get back to LA, but it won't get beyond that.My thoughts notwithstanding, Go Coyotes. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmeadowlanders Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 With Prust suspended and Dubinsky still unable to go, it'll be Bickel as a forward and Eminger on D, obviously Bickel can play D as well should something happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsfan0518 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 That picture was very entertaining. The main point was that the Kings are relevant and they should gain more respect in the LA area. I mean, they are one game away from a Cup appearance, playing excellent hockey (ex game 4), and they are making the LA hockey fans proud. Why would someone think of the Sacramento Kings when someone says Kings in LA, when Sacramento is 6 hours away... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin W. Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Unfortunately, when you are in a market with the Lakers, you'll always be second fiddle, especially when you're a hockey team. Hockey will always have a kind of "otherness" to American sports fans, like soccer. Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions) King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockey will always have a kind of "otherness" to American sports fans, like soccer.Being 2nd fiddle doesnt make ignorance acceptable. If you report on something you should know the basics. Like the puck is not a ball, for example.
