Because Bettmans NHL loves their little Grease Pigs.

Moore and Kopitar score 82 seconds apart, 2-0 Kings. Kopitar's goal is a triple K combo. Kempe and Kuzmenko assisted on it.

You watch. The Grease Pigs are going to get many, many powerplays to close out the season. The NHL will try to get Pissy the Art Ross Trophy.

You would think with the way they officiate NHL hockey that the refs would owe Vegas a powerplay or two. Well halfway through the third and itooks like the refs have put their whistles away. Job well done boys. You've set the Grease Pigs up for a win.

[Rejean31]

Not a single powerplay for Vegas in the third. Nurse could have been called about 3 times by himself. It's a Grease Pig Special. A refs assisted victory!!

[trackercowe]

Kuzmenko with another solid game on the Kings. Here's hoping he remains hot and helps in taking out the Oil in round one.

Nurse should have gotten delay of game for laying on the puck with the goalie pulled.

Since the Oilers are 25th in the league in PP opportunities, I'd guess many.

The Flames are 10th.

I couldn't specifically find 5v3 chances.

Home ice advantage is not that big of an advantage.

Have another look at LA's home record vs their road record.
