Come on now, you didn't really think the Kings would play well two games in a row, did you? The fiery part from last game seems to have continued, though. Brad Stuart got a five-minute major instigator, another five for fighting against Tuomo Ruutu, a 10-minute misconduct and a game misconduct. Derek Armstrong also got a 10-minute misconduct and another five minutes for fighting Adam Burish.

Handzus scored against his former team and is coming on offensively. He has three goals in the past four games after having one in the previous 27. Sully scored his first goal in seven games.

Come on Matt, They didn't play thaaat bad. Another game with only 5 d-men. That's always tough. Aubin sucked, and part of that is Crawfords fault, if he's got two hurt groins, then he shouldn't be playing. no matter what. Quick looked good. Khabibulin was on his game for sure. We can always play better tho.
