End of 1st period. The Kings had a good period and got on board first after a beauty of a pass to Juice led to a goal. They may have gotten in trouble with two penalties but otherwise they were solid and in control for most of that period. 40 more minutes of hockey left and the Kings need to maintain their lead and get some insurance goals to keep the filthy Isles from taking this game away.
Yes, I recently hold major contempt of the Isles after hearing their fans making backhanded comments to us after that rightly dirty hit by Anders Lee to Gavrikov last season that sidelined him for a couple of months. Then again, I really despise NYC-area teams in general (the Devils don't count since they represent NJ rather than NY, despite being tagged as an NYC-area team by the media).
