not too far about 20 min or so depending on traffic as it always is in LA. the ring would be cool. they are going to be giving away replica banners on opening night.....should be fun.
Fun is going to be a given.....i just hope we win that night as well........we need to start off this shortened season on a good note
yeah you guys definitely have some great players on your team. it seems a few years back that they were primed to make a run for the cup. i love your goaltender in ryan miller. he was great in the olympics.
funny how you are a hockey fan living in san diego of all places, let alone a kings fan.
yeah this year we usually have 16 in our fantasy league, but this year it has dwindled down to 10.
Go Bruins
no i never seen a game at the honda center.....i'm jealous....good game so far....LOL
anyways give them a:
GO KINGS GO!!!!!!

Red Wings' fan is here!

i must say that you guys are everywhere. whenever the wings comes in to play the kings at the staples center, i must say have of those attending are wings fans. it is the only time in staples center that you will see that many of the opposite teams fans in attendance.
but as a kings fan i must say:
BOOOO!!!!!

still i can't say that Kings are the worst Wings' enemy))) 'Hawks and Canucks in the west, Leafs and Hubs in the east. May be people go to California not only for hockey, but for hot Californian sun as well.
BTW, last year supported Kings after Wings got knocked out :cheers:
yeah i know that there are a lot of transplants from detroit living here in LA. it is just weird, where all season long you see kings fans fill Staples, then the wings come in to town and half of Staples is fill with red and white. it is just crazy. i'm not saying it is a rivalry at all. i just have never seen anything like that in any sport...........now that we won the cup, i wonder if there will be a shift in attendance? i doubt it LOL

Next year it'll be only two meetings as between wings and kings as Troit moves to the Eastern conference.
thank goodness
i forgot about the re-alignment. should be interesting to see how that fares next year.

Personally I'm pretty excited about that. Wings will have less road tripping and more batttles with Hubs and Leafs

I really like this realignment. Getting the teams in a division that is mostly in the same time zone is great, especially for the playoffs. It just sucks when you're in the Pacific time zone and have to play a team 2 or 3 time zones away for 2 weeks. I hate coming home and finding the game almost half over.
I would like them to bring back the divisional names they used in the 80's (Adams, Norris, Patrick and Smythe). I don't see that happening because it would simply confuse too many newer fans who don't know what they mean. I was confused for a while, too when I was young and learning about the NHL back in the 80's.
