Los Angeles Kings 5, Nashville Predators 4The Nashville Predators lose a tough game at home against the Los Angeles Kings Tuesday night. No matter how many times the Predators could score and tie the game up, the Kings always had the answer. And sometimes, a little bit more. Read more...
The Los Angeles Kings scored an unusual amount of goals tonight. In 3 of the last 4 games, Los Angeles has scored 4 or more goals. Going into this game, the Kings were last in the NHL in scoring, but that is going to change. With the acquisition of Jeff Carter, this team has picked up its offensive production, big time. It is hard to score 5 goals when you are last in the NHL in scoring on Pekka Rinne, and they did it. As a matter of fact, it is hard to even score 5 goals on Rinne when you are first in the NHL in scoring.Season Series

One of the highlights of every game in Los Angeles seems to be the kiss-cam. I blame this on the fans, of course… but I digress. At a recent Kings game Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson were unable to escape the grasp of the kiss-cam. It happens just after the 50 second mark of the below video. Will Ferrell still owns the LA kiss-cam with THIS GEM.

Newcomers make presence felt in win
It didn't take long for Nashville's new additions to chip in. During Nashville's 3-1 victory over the Florida Panthers, left wing Andrei Kostitsyn scored a goal, while center Paul Gaustad and defenseman Hal Gill both had assists. Kostitsyn also notched an assist.
There were some questions on how both Gaustad and Kostitsyn would fit in after the trade deadline. Kostitsyn...

The power play was unsuccessful as the Coyotes edged the Kings in the first of two...

March 07, 2012
One word was repeated when the Predators were asked about the significance of the team’s current three-game homestand: huge. Eight points back of first place St. Louis Blues, the Predators are only four points ahead of sixth place Chicago.
“It is huge. Everytime you are at home it is important, especially now with the playoff race coming down to the wire with teams being so...

This is much cuter than the time Madonna was featured on the Kiss Cam and she made out with her over-inflated sense of self worth.
The Los Angeles Kings are just one of many pro teams that employ the Kiss Cam during breaks in the action, probably because it’s cheap, fun, and the fans seem to get a kick out of it. So it only makes sense that when a Hollywood power couple like...

Lowest Scoring Team

March 05, 2012
For most of the season the Los Angeles Kings have been the lowest scoring team in the league. Likely that is what motivated them to trade for Jeff Carter. Recently they have lost their position as the lowest scoring team in the league. The Minnesota Wild has even fewer goals per game. LA has 2.12 goals per game (that is a reduction in their scoring rate since I first wrote...
