Kings apperantly just having random season ticket holders singing anthems. Still better than Opera Man in Edmonton.

Good call by refs to avoid making it a major on Nurse- Arvidsson totally dived like a b@$@$.

Then they give the BS call on Ekholm. Goddamn this league's officiating...

Spectacular dive by Arvidsson there. Did Nurse even touch him? Glad they overturned the major but I'm struggling to see anything that warrants Nurse getting 2 mins there.

Good news, he's not actually dead!

I don't know why we weren't a little more aggressive in going and getting the puck back there ahead of the Ekholm call. It just seemed like a recipe to eventually take a penalty.
I do think the referee reacted to the head snap from Kopitar. You can almost hear McLellan at the Kings practice - "Take the fall, act hurt, draw a penalty!"

Oh look, Arvidsson miraculously returns to the game after his horrendous maiming at Nurse's hands....

That was a horrid call on Desharnais. Absolutely terrible.
Hopefully the Oil absolutely stomp the $#^} out of the Kings tonight.
This team needs an epic beatdown.

Bettman needs to make sure at least one big-market US team makes it past this round.

That's the point.. they stretch the rule book to call an Oiler "infraction" and close the book when its the other way..

Well, the Kings were finally able to take advantage of the favorable officiating.

I'm not normally one to complain about officiating, but that period was full of absolutely terrible calls. Let me guess...the refs will put away the whistles and "let them play" (ergo let the Kings hook & interfere to their hearts content for the remainder of the game.)

I'd expect some even up calls for us after some of that trash. Refs definitely jokers tonight

even uppers won't come unless the Oil get down by 3.. then they balance the stats to look more legit near the end of the game..

Nurse wandering again. Wish he would stick to defense more. End of period. Make damn sure no free crap around your net.

Hyman's had a rough series so far. He's contributed blown coverage and penalties.
Maybe he'll show up eventually.

Bet arvidsson hurt his hip a bit on that landing after that jump into the air. Probably deserved an actual injury there. Laughable dive

The worse thing about those fake calls on Edm is that now they don't know what a real penalty is.. before this game they were the ones carrying the physical play.. now they'll be hesitant to go 100%..
