To me, that's a very one-dimensional way of looking at things. Much like any stat, it really doesn't tell the whole story. One could succeed in arguing that the Rangers actually outplayed the Kings over the course of the first two games, but LA's perseverance won out and they took both wins in extra time. They were ultra-competitive games, and could easily have gone the other way. The third game the Rangers just seemed flat.
In my humble opinion this series has been far from either a dud or an ass-kicking, despite the fact the Kings are poised to sweep tonight.
