I'm getting an epidural steroid injection to my lower back at 1pm before heading to the game! Hopefully I'll be good to go by the time the puck drops :bang: I've never had one done before but it's been a long time coming (12 years of doctors telling me I'm too young and to just deal with it). Luckily the injections are in LA so I'll already be near the staples center. I know what you mean. Going up against the Canucks in the first series I just wanted to see them push as many games as possible. You can see my thinking for the first game with the text sent to a friend.
lol. does anyone know what the ducks record during their cup win was? and what seed were the ducks going into those playoffs? **edit** They were the second seed, and went 16-5 in the 07 playoffs cup win. 2007 -- defeated Minnesota, 4-1, Western Conf. quarterfinals defeated Vancouver, 4-1, Western Conf. semifinals defeated Detroit, 4-2, Western Conf. finals defeated Ottawa, 4-1, Stanley Cup Finals
Shot with my iPhone 4 from Section 308, Row 2 (which is basically Row 1). The first video is 12 minutes long, but it is just about the entire pre-game ordeal, I thought those whom weren't able to attend would enjoy it in its entirety. You can hear various chants throughout the video, 7:35 is when the tempo really picks up! **The crowd goes nuts at 8:59 of the video, just as loud as Game 4 of the St. Louis end of game in my opinion!!!** The second video is the last 30 seconds or so. **Be sure to adjust the video in the settings tab to "HD"** Enjoy, GKG!!!!!

I can't remember right now and am to lazy to look but is this the series against Detroit with the looonnnnngggg overtime games?
Just reread this thread. The first page is Kings vs. Ducks Gold. From Dino's post, GKG! The prize (at the end of the tunnel)
anyone check this out yet? i found myself in it. http://gigapixelfancam.com/fancams/nhl/stanleycup/20120604/
Obviously a well educated old school hockey fan. As much as I dislike the Kings I must admit they put in an amazing run and deserve this.
That means alot Pat, I know it was hard to say, lol, cause it would be hard for me to say it to all the Ducks fans, lol. I'm so gitty right now, i can't wait til the puck drops!!! Here is the corner of my desk!!!! Everyone knows how pumped up I am today!!!!
^^^ agree 100% with Bret so thanks for recognizing this amazing cup run Pat. I was checking ticket prices last night and there is 2 left in the section I'm sitting in which is on one end of the ice.., each ticket is now $2678.00
Thanks Gene. As for the ticket I can say when I saw the Ducks win the cup the experience was priceless.
No, the Ducks got swept in that series in 1997 that had a 1 a 2 and a 3 OT game - probably the closest sweep in the history of hockey.

F$&@ well i said quick was winning the game but hes only one guy. Way too much time in the kings zone.
Yup, me and the guys I was sitting next to keep saying "CLEAR IT!" then bamm! NJ scored. The Kings gotta just shoot the puck and quit trying to make the "pretty" goal. Get in on net and things will happen.
Elaine is obviously a Kings fan. [video=youtube;SYeRDCWU1HA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYeRDCWU1HA&feature=related[/video] [video=youtube;ftUR6AFTNMA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftUR6AFTNMA&feature=related[/video]
Tonight is the NIGHT! GKG! It's hard to focus at work, I can't read anymore quotes or Insider post becuase they just stress me out, it's the same stuff over and over for the last two months.
It better be tonight or the Kings are in trouble. We are leaving for the game in less than 2 hours! :bang:
Nice, have fun! And yeah man, we got the good bounces and breaks in games 1 and 2, game 3 was just domination by us, games 4 and 5 the devils got the bounces/breaks. Tonight is a MUST win!!!!! GKG!
