The legendary Charlie Simmer was on my flight here to LAX. Talked to him, shook my hand and was a great conversationalist the entire time. Hey, we even stood in line at Enterprise to pick up our cars! Classy dude.
ESPN zone is right across the street, but it gets pretty crowded before a game so its a good idea to get there a little early so you have time to eat before the game.
The local newspapers (and TV news) have no idea what goes on in hockey. I can't tell you how many times I've heard that Jamie Quick got a win or Jared Stall scored a goal. If they're not talking about Luc Robitaille or Wayne Gretzky, local reporters are clueless.
Kings are down Smyth, Flames down Bourque, should be an interesting game.
Good times. Nice to meet Boo radley, Stray bullet (nothing like accosting a complete stranger on the concourse and asking "are you straybullet?"), and of course Ice.

Thanks for taking us to ESPN. Sorry I was so tired from Friday night. Staples Center is nice.
Lots of Flames fans - pics later of us with the LA Kings Ice Girls.
A big group of Flames fans arrived in a limo - they said "that's how we roll".
See you in Anaheim.
Aeneas stole a puck that Prust threw directly to me.
So, this is a bit awkward, but have you also had really horrible gas since eating that Pizza? The other guys are giving me hell over this and I'm having an awful time with them. They're really drunk and they think it's so funny, but I'm afraid I'm looking forward to spending the night on the toilet.
I'm only asking becuase I know you had some of the same pizza and I'm thinking of calling the place tomorrow and making a complaint.
THey showed one group of guys celebrating a goal, maybe 7 or 8? Was that you guys?
We were in a group of 8, Boo Radleys 4 behind our 4. But there were 3 other groups of that size or larger that we could see.
Did they show all the hats on the ice when Iginla scored the third? Thought that was well done, until I was told by Ice or ZIce's friend that it always happens if an away player scores a hattrick.
Location: Oklahoma - Where they call a puck a ball...

I asked if it was you guys in the GT. They mentioned the group was from Calgary , Was going to the lakers game and the Anaheim game was well. I was listening to it the tv while in the kitchen or I could have seen if it was you guys.
One guy did say in the game thread that one of the "old" dudes looked like troutman HAHA!!!

Those guys were with straybullet. Lakers game and a college football game too.
They were down low behind the penalty boxes.
