Kings-Dallas underway

And the Kings are already down 2-0. Simultaneous penalties to Jack Johnson for high sticking and Jeff Giuliano for hooking put the Kings in a two-man hole. LaBarbera and the defense did a good job for most of the penalty kill until, with three seconds left, LaBarbera slid to his left to block a shot from Louis Eriksson only to have Eriksson hold up and show some good vision to find Jeff Halpern camping wide open on the other side 3:20 into the game. Sixteen seconds later, Eriksson scored on a wrap around. Looks like the Kings are back to their old ways.

On the Staples jumbo screen, they just gave today's players choices for the song to play later in the game. Dustin Brown wants to hear ``My Own Worst Enemy" by Lit. Had to laugh at that. Perfect choice for the Kings.
