They remind me of the last Oilers team to go to the finals and lose in game 7. They have some major momentum going right now esp after just making the Canucks look like fools. If they can take out the Blues then they are going to the cup final. Just too much momentum for a team like the Yotes or Preds to destroy.

Agreed! Although I thought the Preds would go to the Finals. Picked them at the beginning of the season, but things change in the playoffs. That's why this is the best sport.

I hear you. I picked the Kings to go to the conference final at the start of the year (thought we would be playing them). Then said **** that half way through the season when the Kings looked like shit. Coaching change and a few trades later they started picking up important wins. I still thought the Blues would beat them this series but now it looks like that's not going to happen.



Hockey is awesome. Such an up and down season where momentum starts playing such a huge roll in the playoffs.

Dem YOTES got some momentum too dough ya ?



If the Yotes and Kings both keep it up that could be a helluva series.

Wow, just Wow. I was waffling on who would win this series, but I did not expect the entire Kings team to shine this much. They are just in control right now.

Kings look confident as all hell and the Blues look lost and not even close to the team that got to the second round. Blues can not handle the Kings size up front (they are bigger than a lot of people realize).



So you're saying they are "King-sized"?

LA only had 5 SOG during the 2nd & 3rd periods.



Turtling, which will significantly lower the number of shots on goal.....and really if you want the clock to keep moving you do not want the goalie to freeze the puck.

from the little i saw of the game while working, seems the Blues are quickly falling back to their normal dumb bully ways. Only one game and only 2-0 down and already the adversity is getting to them? Maybe they really are too young tobe a cup team just yet. Thought Arnott and Langenbrunner would be good vet presences...

Don't the Blues have the best home record in the league this year? Really impressive that the Kings were able to take both games.

HAHAHAHA the Kings are def not known for embellishing. Nice try though.



Blues will give em a tougher game with their proper defensive pairings in tact. Kings are also a bit of a different team on home ice (or it appeared so in the Canucks series even though they went 1-1 on home ice).

Sadly I'd rather be watching that game than this shitty OT.



And of course I miss a playoff fight... when fights really matter.



Don't think it's on TV in the US.
