And yet another of the Kings' demons exorcised.

If only it was Montreal it would have been maximum destiny. But this is still a shot at the Cup, and therefore it's still pretty drat great.

Nah, I'm not really mad, but seriously a penalty is a penalty and the game situation shouldn't matter.

I think they were saying that of all of the teams who got to the Conference finals with 3 game sevens, none had won the third. Until now.

Stoll probably should have gotten a few games for his elbow on Vlasic though.

Anyways, the Kings constantly toe the line of clean/dirty play and they get away with a bunch of plays in their end that probably should be called hooking/holding/interference.. which is probably just good coaching but infuriating to play against.

Also Quick is a big gigantic tantrum-throwing baby and his water bottle toss indirectly led to their win.

Nah, there will be a bunch of bandwagon Kings fans that pop out of the woodwork, just like last time.

Not sure I even want to watch the finals, there's no way it's going to be as good as that series just was.
