How did this happen? A month has gone by?
Well, it’s been a good month so far for the Kings. They spent some time as the best team in the west and are resting comfortable in fourth place in the conference.
Annette and I went to Vancouver to visit with Aunt Hazel and Uncle Bill. They were both gracious and we went to a Canucks game v the Kings while we were there. Snow was flying but the Kings lost.
Thanksgiving is upon us. While I have many things to be unthankful for, I want to be thankful for the head over my head, food in my stomach, and books to read. I’m thankful for friends, the good parts of my families, and hockey.
Happy Thanksgiving.
After tonight’s win, the Kings have 26 points in 21 games. That is on a pace to score 100 points for the season. If they continue this way, we could be playoff bound.
After last night’s slightly disappointing 2-1 OTL to San Jose, the Kings take on the Canucks here in LA. It is Canadian Night, also, which basically means some Canadian stuff and a concert after the game from the Tragically Hip. If the Kings win tonight, they tie for the best October point total in franchise history.
The other story of the day is that I bought Canucks-Kings tickets for Vancouver when I’m up there visiting my Aunt. Wifey, Aunt, Uncle, and Sister will all be going, too. Upper deck seats in Vancouver = Lower Bowl seats in LA. Yikes. Canucks are like the Lakers here without the 15 championships.
…nothing is better than watching Hazy cry about a Ducks 6-2 loss to the previously winless Toronto Maple Leafs. Tivo’ed the game and fast forwarded to all the good spots. Of course, reffing, which was tilted, was to blame.
…and nothing is better than a Kings win on Sunday over the Blue Jackets. Let’s see how Wednesday and Thursday go.
Colin, our diabetes alert dog, is writing his own blog. He is telling his live story and is pretty good at writing. Check it out!
Kings went on a short road trip to Phoenix. A strong game and a win later they are on the plane back to LA. Tomorrow, the Kings take on the Blue Jackets, who beat the Ducks tonight. Overall, a good night for me.
A beautiful 4-1 blowout was turned into a 5-4 OT win against the Stars. How do the Kings do it? Revert to old form, that’s how. Here’s to a win tonight in Phoenix.
but the Dodgers lose. Oh, well, I would rather have the Kings win at this point in my life. Defeated Dallas 4-1 with a solid road performance. Thursday against Dallas at the Staples Center. First regular season game for us since we were out of town.
Another game, another loss. The strange thing about this road trip is a win tomorrow at Dallas and the Kings have a 3-3 road trip. At the beginning, this would have been considered pretty good. After the first two wins, people became to optimistic.
GO KING GO!
