The Return of the Kings...

A few hours ago, the Los Angeles Kings celebrated their 2014 Stanley Cup title by raising their second consecutive banner up the rafters at STAPLES Center. Despite losing to the San Jose Sharks, 4-0, in tonight's opening game, Dustin Brown and Co. continue to contribute to the championship pedigree that fills the arena on L.A.'s Figueroa Street. This makes up for the fact that the Lakers will probably have another mediocre season once it starts about 3 weeks from now, and the Clippers will still be the Clippers and start a respectable regular season that will probably culminate in another disappointing postseason where they get eliminated in the first round. And the Sparks, well... I don't know the names of any of the players who are currently on that team. And who here watches WNBA games?
