    kings dont get respect cuz they arent the rangers, pens, caps, bruins, leafs, flyers, or montreal.... those are the only teams that matter anyways in the eyes of most of the big sportswriters for the nhl. because either thats where they are from and are homers, or they ride superstars to make their living like crosby or ovie...

    The only thing that made sense in the SI rankings is that the Kings will be without Kopi for the three to four weeks, yes that will hurt them, but the Kings are also one of, if not the deepest teams in depth at center.

    As to the no respect, "f** 'em", this team bitch slapped it's way to the Stanley Cup, I just hope they can carry that level of play into this season.

    Let the players worry about it. If they want to take the rankings as a reason to say "Eff Them" then fine.

    Besides, in the years of being a Kings fan, they've never really gotten the respect. 1 season isn't going to change that.

    I've heard the boys run and win described many way, but this one is priceless. And it pretty much happened just like that too.

    Coyotes have been picked near, or at, the bottom of the standings for the past 3 or 4 seasons, and they've still managed to make the playoffs. The preseason rankings mean nothing. And Im not sure that being pegged as the 3rd best team in the West is all that disrespectful anyways.

    Power rankings are pretty much useless. Vancouver was at the top all last season and where did they finish? SC champions always have a huge target on their backs each game so if there's any team that wants to give the Kings "less respect" will only work in our favor.

    TSN has Kings ranked 10th... HAHAHA

    Did these so called experts not watch the Kings steamroll everyone in the playoffs?
