The Kings' win over Nashville was bizarre, as far as 5-1 wins go. Scoreless through one, just 1-0 through two, Los Angeles just couldn't put pucks on net.

The market's not what it once was. Back in the 90s and 2000s, we were promised pain-free growth. Stick that money in Sun, son, and watch it inflate. Now the times are hard.
