The Kings failed to score on a 5-on-3 power play 7:19 into the second period. As time was about to expire, one fan yelled loudly: ``there's only three of them.''

well seeing how they scored on the other 2 I think it's OK!!

we'll see if they can keep up the good PP fortunes, but this is a pretty good improvement for the team. they had one 5-on-4 vs. the Sharks where they barely got it past the RED line...

Sorry about that, you must have been close by. But it just looked like nobody wanted the puck and the passing wasn't sharp enough to create any opportunity for a opening. Basically those three guys were out positioning our five.
