There’s simply no way to look at the Muzzin check on Cleary and see anything dirty or illegal. It wasn’t a high hit. There was no head contact. He just hit his visor on the glass and cut himself. And the Penner check on Smith? Could have called interference. Didn’t. So what? Those kinds...

My two cents: Cleary and Babcock know they’re full of ****

Kings rest, meanwhile: Sunday’s results
THE GOOD: Canucks lose, Coyotes lose, Avs half-lose. THE BAD: Wings win, Hawks win, Flames win, Ducks win. THE POINTS-BLOWN: with the Canucks losing, the Kings pull within 2 points-blown of 3rd in the West; 6 points-blown separate 3rd from 14th; no one is safe. Okay, the Hawks are probably safe from the Jackets, but that’s...

Score, Loktionov!
…a third period game-tying goal, in tonight’s game against the Caps. Matt Moulson has 2 goals in the Islanders’ game against Montreal. Thomas Hickey appears to be on his way to 15-16 minutes of TOI in that game. Hickey is near the top in QUALCOMP (toughest competition) among Isles’ defensemen, and near the bottom...

Tie-breaker weirdness: Kings are 4-2-2 in games that DON’T COUNT
Reader Jerold Stevens pointed out in the comments something that hadn’t occurred to me at all. Namely, because several of the season series involve an odd number of games (3 or 5), one game in each of such series does not count in the tally of points-earned for the purposes of the season series...
