I hope the Kings win just so I can watch more games between these two. It would be a shame if this series is over early.

It looks like whoever wins this will be rather beat up for the second round, as most expected.

I cannot remember seeing this physical a game or series. There is literally no time or space. Only time you see scoring chances are on rugby sessions like the goal tonight or blatant giveaways...which are few and far between.

Agreed. Whichever team wins this series, the real winners are the fans of playoff hockey. Three games in and this has been a total treat to watch.

Is there a PP the Kings didn't deserve at some point? That really felt like a makeup call.

Watching this series you realize how far off a team like the Flames really are from contending. Will be interesting to see what the winner has left in the tank.

Yup, many many years before we're on the same level as STL or LA.

Justin Williams makes an excellent diving save and then Hrudy says "what amazing goaltending, no wonder Quick won the Conn Smythe last year".

Goalies love blowing other goalies.

I can't think of anything other than "Great save Tanev" right now.

Great game, the Kings deserved the win, but the Blues also played a great game.

Great series so far. Intense and exciting low scoring games. This is the type of hockey that typifies playoffs in my mind.

After watching this series, there is even more reason to draft Monahan.

Could very well be true, but I thought the same thing in 2003 and tbh, I thought the moves Sutter made going into the 03/04 season actually downgraded our team. So you never really know.
