TRH RECAP 31: SACRE-BLEUOUT
KINGS 6, CANADIENS 0
Coming off a brief conditioning stint versus the NY Islanders, it was time for the LA Kings to hit the road again for a rather peculiar stretch of their schedule.
After one game in six days, the Kings matchup against the Montreal Canadiens was the first of seven games in 11 days.
NHL schedule makers, everyone!
Regardless, the game against the Canadiens provided the Kings a chance to exorcise some demons improve their absolutely horrendous 8-41-11-0 record in Montreal.
Contre les Kings ce soir. C'est là que ça s'arrête pour le Canadiens, sans vouloir être pessimiste.

Call me an optimist, but I’m on board with this guy.

Montreal = Coastal City
Weird #NHL fact: the #Canadiens are currently 19-9-3 and face the #Kings tonight: the team that they beat in the 1993 Stanley Cup Final
— Adam Rickert (@adam_rickert) December 10, 2013
Coincidence, but kinda cool.
Kings are a big bodied forechecking team & #habs don't dress Murray or Parros? #booooo

With LA Kings up 6-0 vs Habs, #Leafs should be advised to turn off their TVs right now. And lock the doors to the ACC before Kings arrive.

29 years ago the Kings scored 7 goals at the Forum… and lost 9-7 to the Habs. I think its a little late for a comeback tonight
— Keen (@keenthoughts11) December 11, 2013
Well I was joking, but good for you.
Oh shit, the #Habs are actually playing tonight! I thought this was a televised #Kings optional practice!
— Simon Holmes (@HabsRock11) December 11, 2013
so THIS is why they scheduled the #VictoriaSecretFashionShow for right after the #Habs vs #Kings. Smart.

@iskeets0ysauce As soon as you described a beat writer DM'ing you about pointing out her error, I knew it was her.
— Bucky (@BuckyHermit) December 11, 2013
Helene Elliott, everyone!
2. Anze Kopitar
After the game, East Coast @PHWA writers moved Kopitar up to No. 64 in their Selke rankings.
He may even be able to pass No. 63 on the list, Tyler Bozak,
provided he scores a double hat trick while blindfolded tonight.
1. Martin Jones
Ho-hum, another shutout for Mr. Jones.
Sadly, this means Jones is now the sixth best goaltender in LA Kings franchise history.
