If there's a bonus payout for guessing Pat Sajak would be in the area, I'll claim that one.

Rich,

I don't know if you ever read the boards on Hockey's Future.com but I started a thread about that today. Isn't that like the 7th glass delay the Kings have had this year?

Did they get this stuff from Bob's 24-hour Discount Arena Glass and Quik-Lube?

Something needs to be done and I bet you that it won't be long before the League steps in.

Kinda makes Kopi's 10-minute misconduct a little more suspect now.....

Staples is a palace. I've lost count, is that 5 out of 6 games? It did give the director time to allow the cameras to focus on the audience and how great a turnout the Flames get when in LA. Who knew there were so many Calgarians in Hollywood?

Are those passes hanging around the necks of the people behind the glass actually tickets, or is AEG asking it's employees to fill all the empty seats? The black stadium seating DOES camoflage the emptiness, however.

Rich - Is Staples half-full or half-empty?

I think the reason for the passes around their necks is that they're glass blowers and are needed the second someone breathes over the boards the wrong way...
