Before we take a first look at the second-round series against St. Louis, here’s a bit of a look back at the series in total.
Before the series, I identified three aspects that I thought might define the series. They were: 1) The goalie matchup. 2) Whether Jeff Carter or Daniel Sedin would have more of an impact, returning from injury. 3) The special-teams battle. How did they turn out? 1) Quick won the goalie battle, although Roberto Luongo was not bad in the first two games and Cory Schneider was very good in the final three games. 2) Each team scored three power-play goals and the Kings scored two shorthanded goals. The fact that the Kings played the Canucks even on the power play, and were plus-2 overall in special teams, was huge. 3) Carter and Sedin each had two points, although Sedin played only two games. Carter was essentially a non-factor. Sedin gave the Canucks a huge Game 4 boost.
What were some other factors, not predicted before the series? 1) The Kings went 2-0 in one-goal games. They were essentially a .500 team in one-goal games in the regular season, which was a big reason why they underachieved. 2) Twice in the series, the Kings allowed the first goal but rallied to win. In the regular season, they allowed the first goal 37 times and won only eight of those games. 3) Late in the regular season, the Kings at times looked a little wobbly in the third periods. In this series, they outscored the Canucks 7-2 after the second period.
Finally, a couple multi-media things. First, my pal Howard Berger did an outstanding job on his blog, in which he captured some great images from Game 5, including a sequence of photos of a grieving Canucks fan. Click here to check it out. Also, click below for Jarret Stoll’s game-winning goal, as presented on TV and radio with two great calls, followed by a full-game recap from KingsVision.
We played hard and won battles and our PK was fire. GKG well deserved

@Rich Hammond, I love the blog. Sometime in the offseason, I would love to have a behind the scenes post of the Kings flights/roadtrips. What I mean is pictures of inside the jet, an idea of what goes on (as in food, drinks etc.), whether the coaches break down video right away etc. We don’t need to know specifics as in one player drinks like a fish (or whatever) or someone yells and screams over errors in the game or whatever. But an idea of what life is like when they travel would be an interesting offseason post in July, shortly after the Kings’ season ends.

While it sucks for us fans not being able to hear Bob and Jim anymore, it is good for the NHL on a whole to do this. Get’s more fans to tune in and hopefully more people into Hockey. If that happens maybe Fox would have a change of heart when deciding to show a NHL Playoff game or a regular season baseball game. So please more people tune in and get them ratings sky high.

Depending on the NHL’s contract with NBC, internet “feeds” might not be included in the tv-radio broadcast rights or a loophole of some sort might be possible. And who knows, maybe the Kings can get a waiver from NHL/NBC.

@Jeff_R, You are so right. In this series, the third line really picked it up. Total line scoring included 5 goals by the first line, 1 goal by the 2nd line, 4 goals by the 3rd line and 1 goal by the 4th line. Mitchell scored the lone goal by a defense-man. Every goal in a playoff game is important. The Kings 2nd line of Carter, Richards and King just might be the difference in the next series if they start scoring.

Yes, Carter’s skate was important in one game of the series. But did you notice who should have been covering the Ginger twin who scored that PP goal? Not saying that the goal was all his fault, but he didn’t look like he was minding the coverage on the PK at the time.

Personally, I also think that Richards isn’t completely back from the concussion. His play since the injury doesn’t resemble his play prior to it. Of course, two different injuries, but neither seem to be exactly at 100%.
And I’m really hoping Penner continues to play well and get rewarded. Lord knows he was the recipient of some of the most negative posts in here (and I had my own share directed towards him), so redemption would be great…for him and the Kings.

@LA_1968, Or they learned how to close the deal after the Detroit fiasco. It was a matter of not wanting to close the deal against the Sharks so that they could play Vancouver and the Sharks would play St Louis. This after knowing they clinched a spot. They had a choice who to play and they wanted Vancouver knowing that SJ would have a tough time with ST Louis and Phoenix with Chicago. Of course this could all just be a conspiracy theorists dream, but I am sticking to it.

Gotta give everyone credit for this win, but now it’s time to put it behind us and move on to St Louis. Game 1 will be huge. Should be interesting how we come out and play. Hopefully no hangover!!! I know we have won a series, but winning the CUP is our main focus. Blues are very much like us. Clifford hopefully will be back. Muscle matters when facing the Blues. Also we got to keep Oshie in check. We are also going to something from our second line. Carter needs to get back into a groove. I do believe his ankle is not 100%. Many factors will be at play as the series goes along, but getting a spilt is of most importance. Long live the KINGDOM and all HAIL the KINGS… HAIL HAIL!!!

The Kings bottom 6 outplayed the Canucks bottom 6.
[Reply]
Several Canucks have implied they ‘gave’ the Kings the first two games and consequently dug a hole too deep to climb out of. I think if was Salo who stated that the Canucks weren’t playing well the last part of the season and can’t just ‘turn on a switch’ when the playoffs started. Then of course there’s the whole ‘what if Daniel had played’ scenario.
I think all of this does the Kings a serious disservice. Vancouver actually had a pretty good ‘end of season’ if you check the record. Daniel did come back and have an impact but it would be hard to argue that it would have been a series changing impact. And as far as the first two games, the Kings weren’t given those, they took them. In fact the Kings grabbed this series by the throat and just wouldn’t give it back.
I thought the comeback on the road in the clinching game typified the Kings team since Sutter took over. We haven’t been blown out of any games that I can recall, and have given ourselves the chance to win almost every one of them. Have we always looked good? No. Has the pp been erratic? Yes. But the Kings under Sutter have played with tremendous heart and fought and clawed their way into the playoffs, just like they fought their way to a series win. They have done a good job of playing what we are beginning to recognize as ‘Kings hockey’, and are a tough challenge for any team that plays us in a 7 game series. A lot like the Blues actually lol.

@Kings x, I think a lot of what we see in the playoffs these days is that the top seeds skate into the playoffs, and the bottom seeds scratch and claw their way in. Essentially, the bottom seeds are playing playoff type games for the last few weeks of the regular season, whereas the top seeds are coasting in. With the parity in the NHL being at a high level, the difference between the #8 and #1 seeds are not all that much, and like I said, the Kings were playing playoff intense hockey the last part of the season and the nucks were just playing hockey, and when the playoffs started, as Salo said, the nucks could not turn the switch on fast enough.
When you look at the teams player vs. player, I do not see much difference at all between the Kings and the nucks, so it came down to who was more prepared, and that is the boys from LA.

@kingswings, Greatest single moment of my watching the Kings was Butch’s OT goal against Boston. Also the loudest event I’ve ever witnessed by far. I couldn’t hear my brother yelling in my ear next to me it was that loud.
All I can say is that during the season when we werent scoring goals and the move made by DL to fire TM and bring in DS. I hade no belief or confidence that this team was going to make the playoffs much less upset vancouver in 5. Then for DL to make the carter trade, it really turned the confidence of this team around. As much as people like to think DL is a poor GM we are really just looking to blame someone for the team not reaching its expectations. When you look at it, DL pulled the trigger on some tough decisions at critical moments that invitably resulted in the joy all of us are having from last night. In DL we trust. Don’t ever question it again. Lol

[Reply]
It’s easy to forget small things with this huge accomplishment but … what happened to Quick lost his stick 4 times? Was that Kesler’s doing? Or was that the sign Qucikie was actually relaxed a little?
Our 3rd line had a big game last night. Lewis … oh, man. He showed what he can do to this team with his skating. I’m going to be his biggest fan if he stays in supporting role. He should know that he can be the biggest hero without scoring the goal. So less shooting would be great(he’s just not good at shooting).
Stoll … the accuracy of his shooting is off the chart if only there is no back pressure or anything like that. All he needs is the open space and then bulls-eye! He struggled through the season though. I think that was because he was trying to make an open space for his line mates. The guy needs more support to score the goal.
I think King to the 3rd line was a great move. He can be the first guy to retrieve the puck, taking 2 or more defenders with him. That gives other players more space to play, and he cen be a finisher as well. King(first man to get the puck and shooting), Stoll(QBing and shooting), Lewis(checking and supporting) would be perfectly balanced line.
Penner on the 2nd line LW is good move, too. I see those guys have something common in their playing styles. It’s going to take some time to glue but I’m pretty sure they will click if Carter stays healthy.
Greene had a bad game. I once called him “Matt (can’t clear the puck) Greene” during the season. Well, that was the case last night along with bad positioning. But his overall play has been imploved throughout the season. I thought pairing with Mitchell as the shut down pair was mistake because of the lack of the speed but what did I know? They did a heck of job at the crucial time and got it done. On the flip side of it, VV needs to improve his defensive play. He was exposed last night, and that led to Nucks 2-on-1. Fortunately, Qickie saved his a$$ but he needs to work on those areas.
Against the team like the Blues, every single mistake will be magnified. So make necessary adjustment and be prepared.
