It's awful.
We have some vested interest to see Edmonton lose, but no neutral fan would want to watch this match up.

Congrats to the Kringes. They really did it 4 years in a row.

Kings are pathetic. How can you allow yourselves to lose 4 straight series to this team. They're just a free pass.
Wasting a playoff spot.

Would love to see what those losers have to say for themselves after that series, especially Hiller. But good luck finding an interview with them on the SN broadcast, it's going to be oilers interviews for the next 40 minutes, interrupted by the panel high fiving each other.

Those Kings veterans have no pride what so ever! How can you lose to a team, any team 4 years in a row?

The Kings gave up 2.5 goals per game in the regular season and 4.6 in the playoffs.

I just saw that. Only for the Grease Pigs is that not even a minor penalty. None of the #### that that team gets away with even surprises me anymore. Most officials in the league grew up in the Oiler glory years and many of them are probably Grease Pig fanboys.

Well it’s pretty rich to suggest the Flames mistreated him when he was basically fired for treating people poorly

Didn't the Flames paid him to not coach? How's that a mistreatment?

Well, that was utterly embarrassing for the Kings. For the 4th year in a row. Ridiculous. This should have been a 4 game sweep for them. But they stink it up and lose the series.

I grant that it's hard to play against the Coilers when every bounce goes their way and the refs are on their side...but to not even show up for the last 2 games. So sick of teams laying down for the Coilers.

Agreed, every ref in the league is an oilers fan without a doubt.

I was happy for a time. Then there was a missed empty net in game 3.

Now I am unhappy.

The mistake was being happy in the first place.

Seriously if you are owner of the Kings what are you considering today? What's the goal for next season? This was a 105 point team in the regular season so hard to imagine they will be able to improve over that given they probably maximized the talent on the roster and Kopitar and Doughty one step closer to retirement. Doughty in particular looks close to cooked with two years left on his contract. Clearly there are not better days ahead but at the same time they aren't bad enough to tear things down. They do have almost $24 million in cap space so I suppose they could go big game huntin in free agency but overall they just seem like a pointless team that's holding a playoff spot until a team like the Flames or Utah turn the corner.

The first thing the Kings should do is fire Hiller. That was inexcusable bad coaching.
