The Kings have been Abdicated

          The NHL playoffs. A time of joy, bandwagons, and nice hockey edits on Instagram. Personally, I don't really incorporate myself with hockey that often. Mainly basketball and football. The only time I watch every sport is during the playoffs. The NHL is one of the top three most watched game during playoffs, after basketball and football.

          Yesterday was a match between the Los Angeles Kings and the San Jose Sharks. Now the Kings are notorious for their last second comebacks. So they came into a do or die game 1-2, meaning that if they lost, they are out. In the 2nd period, the Sharks were leading 3-0. All of a sudden, BAM. Tied game, 3-3. Everyone thought they would win after that, so with their expectations high, they fell down faster than the ball that Mark Sanchez held when he executed the famous butt fumble.

          The game ended 6-3, and the Kings had to go home. They won the Stanley Cup in 2014, but will they be able to do that again?
