Kleenex must do a ton of business in LA. Everytime I log on to read your blogs all you do is cry!! Your season isn't over yet. I have never seen a bunch of fans flip flop and turn on players as much as they do on this site. It's amazing! I would hate to be a player in this city... Do you seriously think that your comments would even attract a player to want to play for your team. You people will be lucky to sign Big Bird with your attitudes. I certainly wouldn't want to play for a bunch of band wagon jumpers. Ride the wave when things are going good for a player and then hang them when they are having a rough spot. Die hard fans stand behind their player and team in good times and bad. Quit crying.... Boy! Kleenex must do a ton of business in LA. Everytime I log on to read your blogs all you do is cry!!

Why is Frolov under the microscope after playing 2 games with 18/19 year old centers in their first NHL game??? Williams OFF Kopi's wing for the first time all season. He needs to stop Running around (and into Kopi). Frolov – Kopitar – brown

Any position Simmonds has been put in, he has done well. No matter what the role or how uncomfortable he has been, his work ethic always makes him do, at the very least, acceptable. From a coaches standpoint, when my team is this injury ridden and I need absolutes, I'll go with a guy that has more than a full season of success with assignments other than his own. Kopi is our top guy and it's obvious he excels when he has a crasher on wing. Parse has been good and I like him, but he's not there yet IMHO. Besides, I'd want a second crasher on a secondary line. Segal could be interesting, but 4 NHL games played? Does he know how Kopi plays? Simmonds is the hands down choice for me here for these reasons. Not to say Parse wouldn't be good, but he also shoots right, so Simmons would win based on his experience. It's funny, The LAKings.com site has Parse as a RW, Manchester's Media guide has him as a Center. Everyone thinks he's a LW. LOL Simmonds-Kopi-Williams Frolov-Stoll-Parse Purcell-Handzus-Brown Harrold-Richardson-Segal IVANANS SITS!!!! - (2nd line) I want Stoll and Parse back together. Parse lifted Stoll's game and that could inspire Fro as well. - (3rd line) Purcell is a filler at this point, but he can play the left side effectively, moreso than Raitis by a mile. Brown crashes, purcell is the dishman, Zeus in front of the net, all the initial shots on goal from this line should start at the point with Johnson and Jones. They have heavy point shots, although Johnson and anyone would be fine. All shots by these forwards should be off rebounds to be effective. Dirty goal line. - (4th line) This line could do damage. Segal is a big boy who can handle his own and seems to do well on the forecheck. Richie has more than proven himself as an expert on doing everything else but point production (not a knock, those things are important), Harrold is just better skill wise than Ivanans. My next book will be about cow tipping on the Oklahoma plains and how it can affect the Kings playoff chances. ;-) I actually voted for Simmonds knowing he’s a RW but with good reason.

If you wanna turn your back to try and draw a penalty when you're about to be hit, it's at your own risk. And this time, for Hemsky, it backfired. Paul -

Purcell has no trade value whatsover. If you want to acquire RM, you would have to trade Fro, a prospect (hopefully Hickey or Voinov), and a pick. RM would be a perfect fit, give us a power forward this organization has lacked since Rick Tochett. Belexes,
