Kings-Sharks Preview
For all that the San Jose Sharks accomplished with their overtime victory over Los Angeles in Game 3, they know it will mean very little if they don't back that win up with another at home against the defending Stanley Cup champion Kings.
''We haven't accomplished anything,'' Sharks coach Todd McLellan said. ''We didn't get our work done in LA...
Matthew Barry: Tell Me Why, I Don't Like Monday's
Is it me or do Logan Couture and Spongebob look alike?
Abuse of an official? Jonathan Quick used naughty words and that's abuse of an official? Whacking him over the head with his goalie stick, now THAT'S abuse of an official. Correctly calling someone an idiot is not abusive. If that were true, half my readers would be banned.
Kyle Clifford needs to get healthy and...
Quick’d Again by Jack Weber
After the Kings were dominated for most of a 2-1 overtime loss in St. Louis to open this series against the Blues on Wednesday, Darryl Sutter decided to make some changes to forward lines today. Last game, the lines featured Mike Richards between Dustin Brown and Justin Williams, Anze Kopitar between Kyle Clifford and Jeff [...]

Coyotes, Kings meet in first of back-to-back
While they have struggled in opposing arenas, the Los Angeles Kings continue to dominate at home.
That doesn't bode well for the Phoenix Coyotes.
Seeking a 10th win in 11 games at Staples Center, the Kings play the first of two consecutive home contests against the Coyotes, who try to avoid a fourth straight road shutout Monday night.
After falling 4-3 at San Jose on Thursday...

Matthew Barry: Kings Win in Toffoli Debut
Last game against the Sharks the Kings were like a bottle of Trader Joe's 2-buck Chuck.
Tonight they were like a bottle of 2001 Masseto.
Kyle Clifford gave the Kings an early 1-0 lead then fought a guy who looks like a Transformer.
Justin Williams gave the Kings a 2-0 lead heading into the 2nd, but the Sharks came out in the 2nd smoking like a Chevy Monza with a blown...
Hockey Fights of the Week: 3/4 - 3/10
This installment of Hockey Fights of the Week could have been renamed Knockouts of the Week. While fights around the NHL are a common occurrence, punches that buckle an opponent are rare and a sight worth beholding.
5. Pierre-Cedric Labrie (TB) vs. Deryk Engelland (PIT) - Mar. 4
We'll admit, this week's list gets off to a bit of a slow start. That's...
Kyle Clifford Destroys Roman Polak In Great Hockey Fight
Staples Center was rocking on Tuesday night as the St. Louis Blues came to town for the first time since being swept by the Kings in the 2012 playoffs. The first period alone resulted in three fights and 40 penalty minutes, including a scrap between Kyle Clifford and Roman Polak. At around the 0:37 mark of the video below, you can see Clifford sending Dustin Penner back to the Kings...
Blues Find A Different Way To Lose
from Jeremy Rutherford of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
The Blues went to Hollywood and wrote a new script for a season that is quickly slipping away.
One of the more proficient, physical starts the Blues have produced this year was followed up by perhaps the most anguishing finish fans have witnessed to date.
Los Angeles scored four third-period goals — and five unanswered...
Roman Polak vs Kyle Clifford Includes This Vicious KO Chest Shot
At first it looked like Kings tough guy Kyle Clifford caught Blues pugilist Roman Polak with a right to the chin. However, when you look at the replay, it seems Clifford’s punch is more of an upper chest to neck shot.
What matters is that Polak dropped, a linesman covered him up, a trainer came out to make sure Roman wasn’t dead and Clifford skated off to the penalty box. Give...
Matthew Barry: Down 4-1, Kings Win 6-4!!!
Holy Guacamole, Batman!
Who ARE these guys?
Those of you on the East Coast missed one helluva game!
Playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, in 2 different countries, on back-to-back home nights, I expected something along the lines of a Terrence Malick paced movie.
Instead I got a gunfight at the OK corral!
Immediately following a lame Barret Jackman/Colin Fraser scrap...
GREAT BRAWL
Kyle Clifford and Roman Polak drop the gloves
On Tuesday night during the Los Angeles Kings’ 6-4 comeback win over the St. Louis Blues, Kings forward Kyle Clifford and Blues enforcer Roman Polak went toe-to-toe in a classic hockey fight. As the above video shows, Polak and Clifford dropped the gloves just after a face-off (standard procedure) in the first period, and started immediately throwing bombs at each other. Clifford...
Kyle Clifford K.O.’s Roman Polak with uppercut
Los Angeles Kings forward Kyle Clifford was dead set on fighting St. Louis Blues defenseman Roman Polak. Dustin Penner came on the ice for a line change and Clifford sent him off the ice. Clifford threw hard and often early in the bout and connected on a solid uppercut that sent Polak down to the ice. Polak went to the locker room immediately and didn’t look so good as he...
Kings Have Some Signings To Do
from Jon Rosen of LAKingsInsider,
As it stands now – and a primary assist to CapGeek on this – the Kings have 49.26 million dollars allotted towards 13 players for the 2013-14 season. Because the salary cap drops to 64.3 million dollars next season – and there’s certainly a chance that will happen – unless players currently under contract for next season are traded...
Around The Hockey World
from Jim Matheson of Hockey World at the Edmonton Journal,
- Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Ray Shero was seen at the Xcel Energy Center in Minnesota over the last few days. Was he looking at Pierre-Marc Bouchard or Devin Setoguchi for his second line? The playmaking Bouchard’s contract is up July 1. The Wild won’t re-sign him. Setoguchi is more of a shooter.

Red Wings 3, Kings 2
Jonathan Ericsson scored with 5 seconds left to lift the Detroit Red Wings to a 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday.
The Kings failed to clear the puck, less than a minute after they tied the game, and Ericsson took advantage. His slap shot from above the right circle trickled through Jonathan Quick's pads.
Los Angeles pulled Quick with a minute left to add an extra...
