All good things must come to an end. That's what the Blues are hoping to do to the Kings tonight in L.A. as the Kings come into tonight on a five-game winning streak. The win would also move the Kings from eighth place in the Western Conference to leading the Pathetic Pacific Division (name change pending).

How crazy is that. Second place by one point and in the final playoff spot. Even Columbus thinks that's absurd.

So this seven-game road trip can end any day now. Enough of the Blues struggling against Carolina and last night in Anaheim. Nope. Not a fan.

The Kings have been feisty after trading for Jeff Carter from the Blue Jackets. At some point he's going to get super drunk and forget where he lives, right?

I love homemade tacos.

We have great news to report. Gallagher got out of the hospital yesterday and he's feeling back to his old self. So, so relieved. He will continue assaulting watermelons in the near future, I assume. So few great prop comics out there. We need to hang on to every one we can, you gusy. And Leo Anthony Gallagher, 65, is probably the greatest. Fuck watermelons.

So I don't know what to say. Hopefully in the next 24 hours we'll receive a dispatch from Staples Center from one Flick Espionage LLC. The links master is invading enemy territory tonight armed with a camera phone, a bunch of Game Time stickers, as much beer as he can afford and the wits his mother gave him. So there's that to look forward to. He's hopefully telling Jon Hamm hello from all of us. Especially me.

This is your game day thread. Comment like you stay up for the third period.
