Phoenix took a 1-0 lead 5:31 into the game after a defensive-zone turnover by Jack Johnson. The puck, wobbling a bit, hopped off Johnson’s stick and Scottie Upshall picked it up and, after a quick scramble, Shane Doan tucked the puck around Quick.

Don’t ever think Jack had control of that puck.
Good passing by the Coyotes…
Classic Kings goal, coming right back, though…

@Niko, Yeah, your IP address probably shows up as LA area, and they don’t want you watching the Phoenix commercials.

@Jason, They looked like their skates were stuck into the ice. They’re “playing at the end of their sticks,” it seems.

doughty looked miserable on that 2nd coyotes goal wow
[Reply]
j.j has got too may personalities…. but he’ll score the game winner
[Reply]
This is kinda cool, ok like most of you know I’m here in Salt lake. I have NHL Center Ice, but they blackout all of the Coyotes games. Don’t ask me why. I hear that there is a feed on Yahoo sports and they black that out too. Now it’s old school for me . I’m listening to a live radio feed. At the moment the Kings are down 2-1

no d tonite boys….. kings 6-5
