Kings: Playoff Schedule Set- Facing Off Against Vancouver
Lord Stanley's light is finally shining in Los Angeles as the Kings go into the first round of the NHL playoffs for the first time in 8 years. It has been a long wait for the faithful, but we have finally been rewarded with post-season play.
As you may know, I am an avid Kings fan since the days of the old purple and yellow. When the team on the ice looked like the team on the hardwood floor. My earliest Kings memories include Marcel Dionne skating with Dave Taylor, a mean and gruff Tiger Williams scaring everybody and a young fresh faced Luc Robitaille scoring his first goal on his first shot on the very first shift in NHL play. They don't call him "Lucky" for nothing.
Well, the schedule for the first round has been set and our opponents are the Vancouver Canucks. For up to the minute news go to the LA Kings Insider run by Rich Hammond. It is a must read for fans.
Below is the schedule. All games will be on Fox/Prime Network with Bob Miller and Jimmy Fox.
UPDATE: Here is the best article so far about the series from Battle of California titled "Sister City Slap Fight."
