Flameswin...if the Kings would show something on offense, then yes, Cup contender...but generating as little as they seem to be able to, then "Lightning in a bottle" or riding a hot goalie to steal a Cup, might apply...but, this playoff season, even at full strength, they seem to have to scratch for a 1 goal lead and then hang on. Heck, even with PPs last night, and with the 'Hawks without a top pair D-Man, a 2 SOG 3rd period does not speak to a potent offense or complete team.
