Thread: That Weird Spot in the Ice at Staples

I really hope whatever that is, it isn't "beyond repair" for the rest of the season.

Is it a water spot? Did Terry Murray come back and try to paint a home plate on the ice but the Kings tried to erase it? Is it where they buried Jay Flats' soul?

People who might know, help me out 'cause it's gonna drive me and some other people I know buggy.

It is the cement underneath showing through the white paint. It happens all the time at rinks, never seen it on an NHL rink. Usually means the ice is pretty thin at that spot. My guess is since they painted the ice in September, it has been covered for a number of months. Likely was a thin spot.

picture, or it doesnt exist.

Mother***er did warm up for all those phony f***king "competitions????" No WONDER I f***king hate that guy!





But they need to fix that spot, man. While we're gone for the Grammy break or something. Geez.

I figured it was the remnants of an outline for a dead body. Jabba the Hut, maybe?

Thanks for the answer ... I saw it on TV last night and had no idea what it could be.

It looks like an askew front door welcome mat that leads to the crease which is kind of ironic because it is in front of Quick twice and he welcomes no one into his crease.
