A #ReverseSweep into a Marian Gaborik late-game beast mode takeover in the opening matchup against the Anaheim Ducks in the Pacific Division Final?
Yes, please.
What a whirlwind week for LA Kings fans. It appeared as though their cherished team was on the ropes against the San Jose Sharks, but Darryl Sutter-led squad never lost their composure. So, now, instead of contract buyout talks, armchair GM discussions and mass hysteria, Kings fans are instead treated to a suddenly juggernaut-ish looking team.
Will it last?
Maybe not for the entirety of the playoffs, but hopefully this five-game win streak can be extended a bit more against the Anaheim Ducks.
Let’s see how Game 2 of the Freeway Face-Off played out.
Lesson I learned last night, Kings fans get really booty tickled when you call them faggots.

I see we’re going straight into fifth gear today.
I'll paint it black with this shirt. Thanks to @DucksNPucks93 let's go Ducks. #PaintItOrange @AnaheimDucks pic.twitter.com/dmhSZaCqqa

Yeah, you see this really doesn’t help the optics of the whole #PaintItOrange theme.
The @AnaheimDucks & @LAKings will be playing game 2 in their @NHL #playoff series tonight in Anaheim! #PaintItOrange pic.twitter.com/Aebn1f5clQ

I don’t even know where to start with this question…
The official NHL Kings website has a list of "worst opposition" to not follow on Twitter. Are they 16 yr old girls?! Lol Omgosh.
— Courtney #BeatLA (@CJanes122) May 5, 2014
“To not follow.” “Lol.” “Omgosh.”
should i be offended i'm not on that "worst opposition to follow" list considering some ducks fans don't even like me? #yolo
— Mariah C. (@mariah_cee) May 5, 2014
#Yolo indeed.
We need to win tonight to knock kings fans back down to earth. Stupid delusional after 1 game.
— Vicky #GoDucks (@PrincessDuck) May 5, 2014
“Stupid delusional.”
Cruising down Katella with bro hymn on repeat. #ducksin5 starts tonight! #PaintItOrange #letsgoducks #BattleforSoCal
— James Clinger (@jclinger23) May 5, 2014
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
Saddest part is that Katella is Orange County’s answer to Sunset Blvd.
…except it has wholesale furniture stores instead of nightclubs.
Paint it Black was so 1960's. Cue me up some Bro Hymn and play it loud tonight! Let's go @AnaheimDucks. #BattleforSoCal #PaintItOrange
— Brad Wise (@bradjwise) May 5, 2014
FYI: “Bro Hymn” was recorded in 1991.
Winnipeg! Your vocal chords warmed up for some "Bro Hymn" tonite? Cause ya know @pennywise is taking over your city! pic.twitter.com/fdmA0dOFDj
— Epitaph Canada (@epitaphcanada) May 5, 2014
Pennywise would rather spend May in Winnipeg than be anywhere near the Ducks.
Walking home drunk as fuck waiting on @Riicknastyy for the ducks game! #goducks

— Cassy Young (@cassyyoung) May 6, 2014
Quick's been a dick every time he's played the Ducks. I'm not surprised.
— Anti-Midas (@MacGruberGyver) May 6, 2014
The Kings are such little faggots. This game is a perfect example of why everybody hates them. Especially Quick.
— Tim Rogers (@Mr_Rogers12) May 6, 2014
I hope the ducks kill the kings just cause of all these fake ass kings fans pretending they give two shits. #notahockeyfan
— justin juday Ⴟ (@jammerusa) May 6, 2014
@jammerusa I just want to see somebody new. Kings won the Cup a couple years ago. Duck's deserve a shot.

Saying I'm pissed off is a huge understatement. Wake the fuck up, Ducks!!
— Cory Hinkel (@CoryHink) May 6, 2014
He would have used a less understated term,
but “pissed off” is as far as his vocabulary will take him.
BRUCE BETTER BE LAYING THE SMACKDOWN RIGHT NOW AND DUCKS FANS BETTER WAKE THE FUCK UP #NHLDucks #HondaCenter
— Joe Vincent Castro (@xjoevincentx) May 6, 2014
CAPS LOCK.
Again, fuck you Kings fans. Been a loyal Ducks fan since I can remember, you guys just started watching hockey 2 years ago.

Hmmm… Seems like a happy, well-adjusted person.
The Ducks would have had that game if it wasn't for Jonathan Quick. He can go fuck himself.

Harsh words from a 33-year-old ska fan.
The amount of love that #TeamTRH has for Gaborik is reaching Carter-like levels.
LOL Corey Perry sucks.
Feel free to raise your hand if you wanted the Kings to bench Quick last series.
