VIDEO: Jeff Carter’s Day with the Stanley Cup
August 27, 2012 By
Late last week the Stanley Cup traveled to London, Ontario – a place Drew Doughty has often described as ‘The best place on Earth.’
Festivities began with Doughty and Carter as the guests of honor in a parade through town. Then, each player was given his full day with the Cup. We already posted video of Doughty’s events here. And [...]
Interview: Like Jimmie Fox, Jim Fox was a baseball player?
August 25, 2012 By
It’s always great to catch up with Jim Fox and last night was no exception. He was one of the first guests we ever had on MayorsManor many years ago and he’s been back dozens of time since, even serving as our unofficial correspondent when the Kings are on the road. We’ve featured him in text articles, on [...]
Modern Family’s Eric Stonestreet talks Kings and Dodgers
August 25, 2012 By
Less than 20,000 people were in the building the night the Kings won the Stanley Cup. Yet, much like the ‘Miracle on Manchester’ stories told decades later, thousands more will likely claim they were there in the years to come. When Eric Stonestreet shares his memories though, he’ll be telling the truth.
A star on ABC [...]

As discussed yesterday on MayorsManor, Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry was in fact one of the guests at Drew Doughty’s party last night. Brandon Prust of the Montreal Canadiens was also in attendance, as were several of Doughty’s LA teammates.
While video of the party isn’t expected to made public, here’s what the Cup was up [...]
Corey Perry partying with Drew Doughty and the Stanley Cup?
August 23, 2012 By
Besides matching shirts, the theme of this summer’s Stanley Cup parties seems to be for former teammates and other NHL players to join in on all the fun the Kings are having.
Above, Eric Cole (of the Montreal Canadiens) helps Willie Mitchell drink from the Cup. As previously reported, Justin Williams had the Bruins’ Dennis Seidenberg [...]
Kaunisto the correspondent reports from Nolan’s Cup party
August 20, 2012 By
Former Kings prospect Ray Kaunisto is in transition. After playing in Manchester for the past two seasons, his contract wasn’t renewed and he’s currently in search of a team – a process he talked with us about a few weeks ago here.
For the early part of the summer he shut down his twitter account, much [...]
VIDEO: 2012 Stanley Cup Final – the lost Bernier interview
August 16, 2012 By
As loyal readers of MayorsManor already know, we posted many exclusive video interviews throughout the 2012 NHL playoffs – with both the LA Kings and their opponents. Whether it be home or road games, we tried to capture the mood and approach of the teams, both on and off the ice. Along the way, we [...]
Former King wore LA jersey while watching playoff games on TV
It’s been three years since he last wore a Los Angeles Kings jersey in an NHL game. Yet, for much of the seven years prior, that’s all he knew.
His journey to the NHL wasn’t an easy one either. Originally drafted by the Islanders in 1992, he only played parts of two seasons there before signing with [...]
