Meaningless games?

Just wanted to let you guys know contributor Don Fulton was at this morning's skate and brings us today's upates, which I'll post in several blog items.

With only 12 games left on the schedule, the Kings prepared Monday morning for tonight's contest against Vancouver with a sense of importance. For a team that has only 59 points in 70 games and currently sits at the bottom of the league standings, the feeling throughout is that these games are very important.

"I would disagree with anyone who would call these games meaningless," Marc Crawford said. "They are meaningful. We get to see from our guys who can raise the level of their game to the level that it needs to be - when the urgency has to be manufactured - and that's quite a quality to be able to do that."
