You might have to forgive Jonathan Quick for still being in a little bit of a daze. He did just win sports' coolest trophy, after all. The Stanley Cup-winning goalie might still wake up some days in disbelief, but he already has an idea what he might do when it comes his turn to spend a day with the Cup.

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings!

Congratulations to the 2011-2012 Stanley Cup Champion Los Angeles Kings!  I don’t think anyone really expects to see a team dominate their way through a postseason the way the Kings did…and they did it as an 8th seed.  Kudos to the entire organization, from the top all the way down to the bottom.  They were patient building this team and knew when to make a splash with some...

Matthew Barry: Rumors

Is the party over yet? Nah. Depending on who you talk to, Kings former #4 pick and RFA (with a 1.3 mil NHL cap hit) Thomas Hickey has asked to be traded. The Kings don't have 2nd or 3rd round picks this year and Lombardi and his staff have made a killing in the 2nd round (Toffoli, Clifford, Voynov, Moller, Simmonds), so look for Hickey to be moved soon for an early...

How did I not know about this ahead of time?

The Kings were in on the Star Wars joke the whole time! And by that, I don't mean "the thing that I did where I wrote Los Angeles Kings into the script of Star Wars". I mean "the thing where they made three mediocre moves as a prequil to three tremendous movies".
