FIRE LUC

This is a new business model. Look at the LA Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders (plus the Rams to a smaller sample), both teams are blood money with half the crowd always for the visiting team.

Agreed.

It's like Danny B. and AEG cracked the $$$ code after Timmy and Deano were gone.

Why try to win to fill an arena with Kings fans when the arena fills up any way (win or lose) with expats/transplants.

It's such a niche sport in LA for full fan support when you are not winning.

However LA is so big that even when the Kings lose for a decade, and the non diehard fans stay home, there are plenty of expats/transplants to take their seats and spend that $$$$.

Purple/gold: YES
Purple/black or white: Please god, no. So ugly.

I sure hope color magically returns to the jerseys like Luc's monochromatic "vision" was a curse to be lifted. I'm a bit stubborn but the last jersey I bought was a forum blue in 2011 with Quick's name on it because I swore I'd never buy a black and white jersey (in hindsight I wish I got the black LA one with the 2012 patch as I was at the damn game for posterity but oh well).

I like Purple and Gold best too. However the players are always quoted as loving the Silver and Black. If the players prefer them that way, I'd think they should stay.
