Rob Scuderi’s postgame thoughts... (on the game...) SCUDERI: ``First of all, we’re disappointed about tonight. No excuses, the trip, nothing like that. We’re disappointed.

Dustin Brown’s postgame thoughts... (on the game...) BROWN: ``It’s a big point. I think we left one on the table. It’s not too often we blow leads, this team. I don’t know what our record is with a third-period lead, but it is what it is. It’s been a tough schedule. We had opportunities there. I... Full Story

An underrated part of last night’s game was the play of Matt Greene. Yes, Greene took an early hooking penalty that led to Edmonton’s only goal, but things got much better for Greene from there. He finished with two assists, and contributed directly to the Kings’ fourth goal, as his slap shot from t... Full Story

The big question is, how much energy will the Kings have tonight?

It’s not difficult to see how the Edmonton Oilers might be able to put all the pieces together someday soon. They have a deep group of young forwards, and one of the best, Taylor Hall, didn’t even play last night because of injury. The Oilers will need to upgrade their defense, and need to decide wh...

Darryl Sutter elected to take the players to the arena this morning -- 11 a.m. local time -- for what figures to be only a team meeting, to... Full Story

There was a certain amount of danger for the Kings entering last night’s game. They were coming off a big, impressive victory over Calgary, and if they took too much time to admire that win, they ran the risk of getting tripped up by a young, fast Edmonton team that had already beaten the Kings twic...

Mike Richards’ postgame thoughts... (on his penchant for shorthanded goals...) RICHARDS: ``Tonight was just luck. It bounced over his stick.
