Honestly, it's no shock that you guys stink. I would embrace it for now. Think about Ottawa a few years back. Draft picks go a long way and once you get a coach who can work with a hodpodge of young talent and stop buying stupid free agents, this team will be a winner.

It's fun to goof on the Kings now but it won't be long before they get back in action.

Bring Melrose back!

Thanks for the advice, Nemmy. =P Hopefully we won't have to buy a bunch of free agents next season since there are some guys at Manchester who (I think) are ready to get their butts over here already.

And I have a feeling Crawford is going to be here for a loooooong time.

Damnit! Why haven't I gotten that yet? Parents! You have failed me! You are behind in my Hockey News receiving.

Too bad about Crawford. I can't believe the Kings would really be dumb enough to keep his ass around, but Lemaire keeps playing Skoula, so I guess some people are just blind.

I'd like to see the Kings do better, if only for the fact that I like Gretzky and Robataille. (And they aren't the Ducks...but that's another story altogether) I agree, you guys will have your turn. If you do get all the baby Canadians, you'll be set for life!

Dude, I think the Hockey News has failed me, I definitely haven't gotten the last 3 issues. Motherfuckers!

Well, I'm pretty sure Crawford is a part of this grander plan by DL, which is (I'm assuming) why he hasn't been canned.

Don't forget Blake!! He's paid his dues.

Awww, baby Canadians!! So adorable!

How could I forget about Blake? I love Rob Blake.

I don't bother trying to get Willamette's mail center to deliever my Hockey News for me, I just get my mom to send them for me in addition to all the hockey stuff from the Minneapolis paper.

I honestly don't get why L.A. stinks!
You guys have some serious talent on your team, it just seems for whatever reason, the team itself has problems gelling? I don't know. And I'm not trying to be a bitch either LOL. I'm serious. It really puzzles me.
But hey, you guys get good picks, so you'll be hard to beat in future years.

Kirsten - Can't ever forget about the Blake.

Maverik - Thanks for the comment. And you're correct, there is talent on this team but it hasn't come together. Maybe some moves at the trade deadline will bring some positives to the lineups.
