Game 1 “The hockey gods took care of us. They did. I mean, we played a great hockey game. Waking up tomorrow would have been a challenge if we didn’t win the hockey game today.” -Ken Hitchcock

Good morning, St. Louis

Behold, the expansive landscape of Clark Avenue. If you are familiar with this blog’s “Good morning” series, you have seen all three of these landmarks before. Pictured above is the Thomas F.

Later on, down the river…

The team arrived at its downtown St. Louis hotel amidst scattered thunderstorms and comfortable temperatures at roughly 4:35 pm after an uneventful flight. Most flights are “uneventful,” and that’s a good thing.

The White House: Bob Miller

At what point of the Stanley Cup celebrations did you realize you’d be traveling to Washington, DC and visiting the White House? “It never entered my mind, really, because I was so wrapped up in the Kings finally winning a Stanley Cup and so many fans and all of us who had who had been [...]

Good morning, Chicago

Sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear, well, he eats you.

Waking up with the Kings: March 20

-Jonathan Bernier was the Los Angeles Kings’ best player on the ice in a narrow 3-2 win over the Phoenix Coyotes that stretched the team’s home record to 12-2-1. His ability to keep a goal-starved opponent off the scoreboard during a first period in which he faced 15 shots amidst an inevitable early-game Coyotes push [...]
