On January 24, 2008, legendary Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda joined the Kings' broadcast at a home game against Anaheim. Prior to the game, Lasorda delivered a pregame speech in the Kings’ locker room, who went on to defeat the Ducks, 3-1, at STAPLES Center.

Him not shaking hands with the other teams when doing the puck drop was top tier Tommy.

Years ago, someone mixed this speech with some Rocky music. This was the beginning of the championship era. Still hypes me up to this day.
