I'm happy the Devils didn't win the cup this year. The Panthers reignited my interest in hockey.
Time to prep for next season and win a playoff series.

Clydefrog and all of Kings-GAF!
I am in LA right now and want to see the parade. How should I get there to not get stuck in traffic? I need to be at LAX around 3-4. It would be such a cool memory to have attended a parade!

Where the hell is Marvie?? The Goldwater Institute is suing Glendale or whatever; was expecting a hilarious breakdown.
Will you even make it on time?
Anyways...
Take it to the Off-Season Thread, scrubs!

I honestly have no idea I have barely spent any time in LA before. But the parade starts at noon and if I stand in the beginning I think that I should be ready to leave around 12:30. And google maps says that it is 20 minutes in current traffic(none I guess), so I should have around 2 hours. Can that be tight in noon traffic? really thankful for the input, missing the plane would be terrible.
Noon traffic blows! I think you might be ok if you leave around 12:30 though. Just remember Murphy's Law!

Goddamn, If you would have left that might out I could have blamed you inside my head if I messed it up. We will see how I do tomorrow, depends on how adventurous I feel I guess

Hahaha. You can NEVER trust LA traffic!
The hearing isn't until next Tuesday.

Hey sanjuro, you have a link to the parade? I'd like to see this pathetic parade of theirs?
Anyways, just want to wish the LA kings and their fans congratulations on the win and the cup. I know I'm late but I watched every game and it was an entertaining playoffs all the way. I enjoyed it.
Have fun partying!

How was the show up? Attendance wise? Huge crowd?
Not many at all.

It seems okay but nothing like a canadian team winning it though or for example, Boston. Man, Boston had a huge turnout, it was unbelievable.
Wasn't it something like how Boston bruins had the 2nd best turnout after NE patriots or Boston red sox. That's crazy.
I'm not sure of the actual numbers. The Bruins outing certainly seemed like the largest of the bunch. We are a hockey and baseball town over everything else.

If Vancouver had won there would have been a riot.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't I guess.
I feel like we'd have a hell of a parade in Buffalo. If we could ever put together a contender again, maybe we'll see someday.
Nope. People would have quashed the idiots much more quickly if they were celebrating. Fewer converts. Not to say that there wouldn't have been any damage.

I guess it is better than the 5 people who would have attended a Phoenix parade.
just FYI: an estimated 250,000 people showed up for the parade
at least, that's what the announcers were saying. i dunno

That's nice. Good on LA. Congratulations by the way.

It didn't feel that crowded but I guess it depends on where you were standing and how long the parade was, It was really hard to get a grip on it. It was perfect though, really easy to get pretty close.
No way... That's too huge a number. If so, i'm impressed. Didn't know a bandwagon can be that big!
You made it!
Same city that has the Lakers dude.
