Tonight the Kings will host the Calgary Flames. And then in a de ja vu moment, they’ll do it again on Monday.

The Kings certainly haven’t become very accustomed to losing of late, especially at home. However, Thursday night brought a 5-2 defeat at the hands of the Dallas Stars.

Fill In The Blank: Feedback from back-to-back wins by Kings
March 6, 2013 By
It’s time for more input from the readers.
For the first time since December 2008, the Kings played back-to-back home games on Monday and Tuesday.
The first contest featured a boring 40 minutes, where the Kings were limited to just six shots on goal, but began the third period with a 1-0 lead. Then came an offensive explosion [...]

Over the weekend we posted multiple Word Association articles regarding the Vancouver Canucks. First was the usual pre-game article with several Kings players (including Dustin Brown, Alec Martinez and Justin Williams).

Then, later in the afternoon, coach [...]
Jake Muzzin – Hey bro, how was your day?

Jake Muzzin could be playing in the AHL right now, as he had been for the past two years. There, he’d be surrounded by friends and teammates, where most of the guys also live in the same condo complex. It was a [...]
