Game 3: Blues 0, Kings 1

Game 3 between the Blues and Kings can be summarized with just two words: wasted opportunities. Maybe two more words: missed wide. Even if you take a few moments trying to remember all of the chances the Blues had, you probably won't be able to remember all of them.  David Backes, Jordan Leopold, Andy McDonald, Alex Steen, Patrik Berglund and numerous others all had high...

Los Angeles Kings can shoulder Cup challenge

Along the way they smashed the Blues and swept them out of the playoffs.“Los Angeles won the Stanley Cup based on their board play last year,” Blues coach Ken Hitchcock observed. “They won the board battles against every team.”The Kings still play a heavy game, in today’s parlance, but so...

Quick closeouts just aren't Kings' style

Ironically, on their barnstorming run to the Stanley Cup final, the Kings have really encountered only one trouble spot: that pesky matter of actually trying to close out a series. In all four rounds, the Kings took a 3-0 series lead and put themselves in a wonderful opportunity to close things out at home.

Kings taste slim margin between win or lose

The Los Angeles Kings' 15-3 postseason record can't be deceiving, can it? For a team that has won all 10 of its road games and faltered at its chance to become the first team since the 1988 Edmonton Oilers to post a 16-2 playoff record en route to winning the Stanley Cup, the margin between winning and losing isn't as stark as their record indicates. Remember the 2001...
