First... check out my GAMEDAY PREVIEWS for the past two games against the Calgary Flames... last Saturday and then for today's game, exclusively at LAKings.com. And remember, you can always find the Gameday Previews Archive on the right hand side.
This will make more sense when you read the recent Gameday Preview.
As the official Burger King Jersey Historian, we here at The Royal Half have provided in-depth coverage of the past Burger King Appreciation Nights. We were at the 1st Appreciation Night in 2010 and also in 2011 when Burger King Appreciation Night turned into Anze Kopitar Leg Snapping Night!
So this Saturday... put on your Burger King jersey and meet up behind the LA Kings goal during warm-ups (Section 106) and also on the landing at the top of the escalator outside Section 304 during intermissions. It will be an ugly good time. And if you can't afford a Burger King jersey from ebay... try this on for size:

I have to be honest with you... it really does hurt me that I haven't been posting more content to this site during the 2013 NHL Season. Between writing the GAMEDAY PREVIEWS for LA Kings.com and a season schedule that has something like 4 games in 6 days... it's been hard to keep up. But please make sure you are checking out our Gameday Preview archive sidebar on the right side of this blog. And follow me on Twitter already... because most of the good stuff is over there.
So in the meantime... we have a Brand New All The Kings Men Podcast!!! On this episode, Jesse Cohen and I sit down and chat with Dewayne Hankins, Senior Director of Digital Strategy for the LA Kings. We talk about all sorts of nerdy stuff... like Twitter, comic books, wrestling and how studly Jeff Carter is and will continue to be. You can check out the brand-new episode of All The Kings Men Podcast here, subscribe to it on iTunes or listen below:
It's Brigitte from One Girl, One Puck with an in-depth look at the Los Angeles Kings opponent for Saturday, March 2nd... the Vancouver Canucks! Or as I like to call it... shooting fish in a barrel!
Man... I wish we could run a contest today to give away a free TRH T-shirt to the person who correctly guesses when Ian Laperriere gets in a fight against the Colorado Avalanche.
So much greatness in this video.
Lappy is retired... but he's being honored today by the Los Angeles Kings so make sure you read the THE ROYAL HALF GAMEDAY PREVIEW... available exclusively at LAKings.com.
Then... play French Canada's favorite new Game Show...
LÉ GAGNE GOAL™!!!
The rules are simple... just guess the exact time and period that Simon Gagne scores his 1st goal of the season today against the Colorado Avalanche... and you win a free t-shirt from The Royal Half Gift Shoppe.
Wear it ironically!
And... since it's a LA Kings Legend Night Afternoon... LET'S PLAY PENNERPOINT™ TOO!!!
The rules are still simple... just guess the exact time and period that Dustin Penner scores his 1st goal of the season today against the Colorado Avalanche... and you win a free t-shirt from The Royal Half Gift Shoppe.
Impress the ladies!
Now remember... hockey is played with a clock that counts down from 20:00... so your prediction for GagneGoal™/PennerPoint™ has to match the time from the official box score.
Using this screenshot, the goal is scored at 13:08 of the first period. NOT 6:52 of the first.
You can put your predictions in the comments below or reply to me on Twitter with #GagneGoal or with #PennerPoint. You MUST use the hashtags to be eligible. Good luck! Entries end at 1:00pm Pacific Time today!
Generally I write some sort of intro to the "Know Your Opponent" series at The Royal Half... where Brigitte from One Girl, One Puck takes an in-depth look at the Los Angeles Kings opponent for tonight's game. But those days are gone... as Brigitte is taking a big step today... and setting herself up for complete ridicule instead of me having to do it. Take it away, Brigitte!!!
Usually when I write one of these posts I try to a least say one thing nice about the other team. I think of it as a hockey karma sort of deal. As long as I don't completely verbally assault the other team, maybe the hockey gods will be kind to the Kings. Unfortunately, this also means I tend to have a lack of hate mail. I'm sad about this. Why? I feed off of your hatred, that's why. It seems all horrible comments about me get directed to The Royal Half instead.
OneGirlOneCondom was my name before I gave up on safe sex.
It's cool though, most people seem to enjoy my random rants I guess. If you don't though, please don't hesitate to go fuck yourself. Now, onto the Flames...
