vs. RECORDS: Hawks 3-6-2   Kings 4-9-0 PUCK DROP: 9:30 TV: NBCSN Chicago BLEW INTO TOWN ABOUT AN HOUR AGO: Jewel From The Crown We’ve remarked on it the past couple years when these two met, but it’s hard to believe that in just over four seasons, these two went from playing possibly the best and […]

Game #12 – Hawks vs. Kings Spotlight: Sentimentality Is Dead, But No One Seems To Realize

By Sam Fels November 2, 2019 0

We, of course, don’t think anyone should ever be sentimental toward Drew Doughty. He looks like when Butthead glued his hair to his face to look older, talks like that as well, and might just be a rapist. We have to accept that Kings fans will forever love him, as that’s just how these things […]

Game #12 – Hawks vs. Kings: Hedley Lamarr’s Mugs, Pugs, and Thugs

By Sam Fels November 2, 2019 0

Drew Doughty – It won’t be long now before this turns into the worst contract in the league. Doughty is already on the decline and no longer carries the play the way he used to, nor does he really much care to, and he’ll make $11M until the planet collapses in on itself. For some reason, […]

You Ain’t Shane, You Ain’t Mook – ’19-’20 NHL Team Previews: Los Angeles Kings

By Sam Fels September 26, 2019 0

While it’s fun to mock the Kings, in the end you’re really only mocking yourself (done played yo’ self, fool). It’s another team that sat on top of the hockey world for a few years, but now has too many entrenched contracts to have a full teardown and restart. And those big contracts make it […]

vs. RECORDS: Hawks 34-33-10   Kings 28-40-9 PUCK DROP: 9:30pm TV: NBCSN Chicago YOU HAVE SELECTED REGICIDE: They all hate us so we won’t list any of them It’s funny. There are a fair few fans who wish the Hawks would have done what the Kings have done, no matter how unpleasant it would be to […]

Game #78 – Hawks vs. Kings Spotlight: Why Don’t You Take It Easy There, Doughnuts? Stop Talking For A While?

By Sam Fels March 30, 2019 0

Kings fans have the same myopia about their local scumbag Drew Doughty as Hawks fans do about Patrick Kane, although somehow they’re even more righteous about it. Maybe it’s a California thing. They also seem to connect their self-worth to the national recognition Doughty gets, as it was Kings fans’ whining and bed-wetting about how […]

Game #78 – Hawks vs. Kings Q&A: All The Kings Men

By Sam Fels March 30, 2019 0

Jesse Cohen runs the “All The Kings Men” podcast, and you can follow him @KingsMenPodcast. Much like the Hawks, how do the Kings rebuild with this much bad money around? They can’t buy out everyone, and they can’t trade most of it either.  I’m not sure there’s much the Kings can do but hope the […]

Game #78 – Hawks vs. Kings Douchebag Du Jour: Deep Thoughts

By Sam Fels March 30, 2019 0

We have this friend. He goes by @BookOfLoob. He sometimes helps us out when the Flames are playing the Hawks. But he’s capable of so much more. Sometimes you just have to admit that someone’s done it better than you. So now we share Floob’s view on Drew Doughty: Drew Doughty looks like he’s perpetually […]

Game #65 – Hawks vs. Kings Douchebag Du Jour: The Whining Fanbase You Never Hear About

By Sam Fels March 2, 2019 0

When it comes to fanbases you identify as whiners or complainers, you usually think of Toronto and their self-flagellation. Or it used to be Detroit and how no one worshipped them to the degree they thought was reasonable (something around Egyptian king/Commodus level). Or Montreal and their need for past and meaningless glories to still […]

Game #20 – Kings vs. Hawks Spotlight: Those Who Do Not Learn…Go To The Kings Front Office

By Sam Fels November 16, 2018 0

Let us take you back to the spring of 2014. It’s not a happy trip for those of us around here, but it’s necessary. The Kings and Blackhawks played perhaps the best playoff series since The Great ’05 Lockout. The Kings come out on top by a pubic hair. They go on to destroy the […]
