3. kings win 4-1

4. anyone know the last time the Kings won a game in TB?

5. Todd is a complete baboon if he can not figure out that Englund needs to be out and Clarke needs to be in. Having Spence AND Clarke both play is vital.

6. I’m ready to be angry all night again

7. I started watching the Bolts about a year before I became a Kings fan, so this game will be tugging at my heart in both directions.

8. Just win.

9. Pls win

10. I just want the Kings to play their game for 3 periods. I (obviously) care if they win but if they can just do their thing for 60 minutes, and continue to do that, then the wins will come.

11. I’m here at Amalie with my son. Go kings go!
