The Wayne Gretzky Sweater Card & the Hope of Cool

The Wayne Gretzky Sweater Card & the Hope of Cool

August 9th, 2013 In 1988, black, silver, and white was a menacing color combination for a sports jersey. In a world of jerseys still bursting with Technicolor, only football’s renegades, the Los Angeles Raiders, shrouded themselves in such darkness. The only thing missing from this fashion statement of intimidation was a pair of brass...

Zero to Hero: Dustin Penner & Other Tales of Royal Redemption

August 2nd, 2013 Imagine 15,000 people watching you at your job.  You make a mistake, and 15,000 boos rain down.  Imagine this every night of work. In your ears, when does a shower become a flood?  Months?  Years?  And when do you drown, unable to perform? It’s rare to rise above such a deluge, even if you’re a well-paid professional athlete....
Valentin Zykov’s Good Luck: Dean Lombardi Is King of Second Round

Valentin Zykov’s Good Luck: Dean Lombardi Is King of Second Round

July 3rd, 2013 Congratulations, Valentin Zykov!  You’ve just won the (second-round) lottery! Taking a page from the Detroit Red Wings and their reputation for uncovering late round gems, Dean Lombardi has claimed the second round for his own, leading the league (it’s not even close) in games played by such prospects since taking over the Los...
Why Dustin Penner Is Still Fit for the Kings

Why Dustin Penner Is Still Fit for the Kings

June 28th, 2013 The season has barely ended, and the most exciting Los Angeles Kings news this offseason may have already dropped.  With Slava Voynov re-signed, Jonathan Bernier traded, and at least five roster spots to fill at just over 6.6 mil of cap space, Dean Lombardi is between a ceiling and a hard place.  Already, some Kings fans are waving...
The Quick or the Dead: How Kings Can Come Back

The Quick or the Dead: How Kings Can Come Back

June 8th, 2013 I confess.  One of the reasons why I’m writing this article is because it may be my last chance to savor the words, “Defending champs.” But I digress.  Before we get to how the Los Angeles Kings can fight back from being down to the Chicago Blackhawks, let’s establish a couple things that won’t happen. Anze Kopitar and...
Los Angeles Kings: It's Good To Be Down 2-0

Los Angeles Kings: It's Good To Be Down 2-0

June 4th, 2013 The Los Angeles Kings are Stone Age-boring.  Robyn Regehr makes Dwight King look like the Flash.  What the hell is wrong with Anze Kopitar?  #FreeAlecMartinez!  They're down 2-0 to an “out of their league” machine.  THERE’S NO EASY WAY OUT! So on the eve of Game Three, here’s my thought for those uninterested with all...

Which Wind Prevails: Category 5 Matchups to Decide Kings vs. Hawks

June 1st, 2013 On the eve of the Western Conference Finals, here are five major match-ups to watch which will swing this “pick ‘em” contest between the Los Angeles Kings and Chicago Blackhawks. Windy City’s Rolling Lines Will Batter LA’s (Relatively) Porous Defense The Blackhawks roll four, speedy lines which finished third in the...
Los Angeles Kings/San Jose Sharks: Forgotten Connections

Los Angeles Kings/San Jose Sharks: Forgotten Connections

May 26th, 2013 While Interstate 5 is the fastest, most common way to drive between Los Angeles to San Jose, the Pacific Coast Highway offers a far more picturesque, less traveled connection.  In much the same way, as the Kings and Sharks whittle each other down this May, I’m reminded that there are other ties between these two franchises besides...
