Earlier today we posted comments from coach Darryl Sutter, who pointed out the Kings have out shot the Avs by a wide margin this season, but have lost both games. Tonight marks game three of the four-game season series.
In sharp contrast to Brad Richardson – who seems to love playing against his former team – […]
LA’s Jack Johnson on the ‘creative and unpredictable’ Avs
Sutter’s 3-word summation of the Avs – ‘They’re still great’
As the Kings and Avalanche enter tonight, both teams have played 48 games. The somewhat surprising statistic is that Colorado has actually won more of them, 25 to LA’s 23. Most people were expecting the Kings to contend for the Pacific Division crown this year, while Avs coach Joe Sacco was rumored to be on […]

Trevor Lewis has played in all 15 games since coach Darryl Sutter took over on December 22 against the Ducks. That’s a bit of contrast from the 15 games prior, where then-coach Terry Murray only put him in the line-up for six and scratched him for the other nine games.
The former […]
Penner claiming ‘pancake power’ and other notes from trip
Dustin Penner and pancakegate is turning into one of the longest running story lines of the season. Of course, everybody knows about the open letter he wrote here on MayorsManor (if you don’t, where have you been?). And as the Kings made their way through Western Canada on their most recent road trip, it was […]

Goalie Jonathan Bernier has started just eight of the Kings’ 48 games last year.

VIDEO: Dustin Penner interviews his LA Kings teammates
Pennermania continues… Fresh off his recent run of all things pancakes – including his open letter to the fans and media – Dustin Penner is back in a fantastic video put together by the guys at Kings Vision. He interviews his LA Kings teammates on a variety of topics, with references to Tebowing, goaltending, […]
VIDEO: Inside the Kings locker room after 2-1 loss in EDM
Here’s some video from inside the Kings locker room after their 2-1 overtime loss to the Oilers in Edmonton tonight. As you’ll see, a shirtless Drew Doughty called the team ‘brutal’ for the first two periods, Rob Scuderi said there was a ‘lack of preparation’ to start the game (a common theme the last few […]
The good, the bad and the something – with Matt Greene
The last few days have been a mix of the good, the bad and the ugly for the LA Kings. After a disappointing loss to the Stars on Thursday – a game the Kings were leading with less than six minutes to go in regulation – they bounced back with a big win in […]
Kings locker room – frustration abounds after 3-1 home loss
The Kings had a chance to move into first place in the Pacific Division with a win last night. However, it wasn’t meant to be. In front of the 24th straight home sellout, LA lost nearly every statistical category – including hits, shots, faceoffs and goals. After the 3-1 Colorado win, here’s what they were […]
