Last night, the Kings hosted the Sharks in Los Angeles, and I gotta say that game was INTENSE! The Kings took a 4-0, but got into serious trouble on the PK, which is weird because their PK was awesome last season. Sharks went 4 for 4 on the Power Play. The Sharks tied it, but less than 30 seconds later the Kings took the lead again, and sealed the deal with an empty net goal to win 6-4.

Also wanted to add, I love how aggressive the Kings were being last night. They weren't taking any nonsense, and I love how they were sticking up for each other. Especially after Drewiske got slammed by two Sharks, the hit scarily similar to that Darcy Hortichuk hit on Jared Boll. Just glad that Drewiske wasn't hurt.
The Kings played a full 60 minutes, something they struggled to do last season. Definitely a good game compared to the season opener. They just need to work on their PK. One crazy game and the crowd was electric!
