NJ Devils keep faith despite Cup finals deficit
Although Martin Brodeur seems likely to return next season with the New Jersey Devils, the 40-year-old goalie also isn't convinced their current season is over just yet.
While Brodeur acknowledges the enormity of New Jersey's plight in the Stanley Cup finals, the three-time NHL champion has been in plenty of tight spots with teams playing a whole lot worse than the Devils...
Kings Extend Road Streak, Devils Can’t Beat Quick
from Tim Wharnsby of CBC, For the fourth straight series, the Kings have marched into the opposition’s building and flew home with a 2-0 series lead. This time, though, they accomplished the feat against a Devils team that led all other clubs in the playoffs with a 6-2 home record.

Kings goalie Jonathan Quick
It looks like the end is nigh for the New Jersey Devils. After suffering a brutal 4-0 loss at L.A. last night they are now down 3-0 in the series. A poor power play combined with the outstanding play of Kings goalie Jonathan Quick doomed the Devils last night. New Jersey was 0-6 on the power play which included a minute long 5-on-3 in the first period...

Dee Karl: The Quick & The Dread
Do you know how long I had to think before I even came up with a headline as dumb as that one? Days.
There are only two NHL players whose names begins with a âQâ and if Jonathan Quick, the Milford CT native wins the Stanley Cup, he will be the first PLAYER whose name begins with âQâ to be etched on the silver ring. Joel Quenneville is on there as a Coach...
Power Outage: Devils Power Play Going Cold at Wrong Time
We get it. That Jonathan Quick fellow is rather good at this game.
He’s kept the Devils to just two goals in three full contests, and is as big a reason as any the Kings are one game away from hoisting Lord Stanley's Cup.
But this New Jersey squad is not one starved for offensive firepower, especially with the man advantage. However, their inability to cash in on the power...
Martin Brodeur Is A Tad Angry Over Alec Martinez’s Game 3 Goal (GIF)
I’m not that great of a lip reader, but I think this was what Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur yelled at referee Dan O’Halloran after Alec Martinez’s goal in Game 3 that put the Kings up 1-0:
“Bullsh**. Hey, you can’t make that call. … Enough. F***. It was right under my pad. He was f*****g whacking at it.”
Too bad, Marty. That goal’s not getting erased off the scoreboard...
Quick getaway leaves LA Kings fresh for Game 3
Darryl Sutter rushed the Los Angeles Kings out of their locker room in Newark on Saturday night as if they were fleeing the scene of a crime.
The Kings coach was just in a hurry to get home, and that's what his club did: On the plane by midnight, wheels up by 1 a.m. Eastern time, and in their beds back on the West Coast shortly after 4 a.m. Pacific.
''Hey, every minute...

Kings could finally bask in a Stanley Cup moment
A fan outside Staples Center on Monday seemed to capsulize the plight of Kings fans. Above the number on the back of his Kings jersey, instead of his name, were the words love and hate.
Kings fans have a moment they can simply love. After 45 years, three owners, two lockouts, one bankruptcy and countless promises, the Kings are poised to deliver.
With a victory tonight over the...

Stanley Cup is Kings to lose after Game 2
NEWARK, N.J. Stick a pitchfork in 'em.

Another LA media blunder: Jonathan Swift
[youtube]cBdAeFOQzQA[/youtube]
Are local media stations in Los Angeles suddenly in on the joke? It seems like after each game the Kings play a different station uses an incorrect logo, team name or butchers a key player's name.
The media coverage after LA's big Game 3 victory provided yet another gem as the Fox station in Los Angeles incorrectly called Jonathan Quick by...
